TROUBLESHOOTING
CIRCUIT BREAKER TRIPPING
Circuit breakers protect electrical cicuits and motors from damage due to overload conditions. If a circuit breaker trips, unplug the power cord from
the electrical outlet. Then try to determine the cause and correct it.
Once the problem has been corrected, reset the circuit breaker by pushing the button in. If the button does not stay in, wait 5 minutes and try again.
If the circuit breaker trips repeatedly, call your local Nilfisk-Advance Dealer for service.
Possible causes for the 9 amp Brush Motor Circuit Breaker to trip:
•
Debris wrapped around the brush
•
Brush Height Knob not properly adjusted
•
Worn brush assembly bearings
Possible causes for the 13 amp Vacuum Motor Circuit Breaker to trip:
•
Vacuum motor needs service (worn carbon brushes and bearings)
•
Foam entering Vacuum motor (use low-sudsing extraction cleaner)
•
Vacuum motor airways blocked
• Clean dome lid on recovery tank
• Clear hoses of debris
• Keep vacuum motor exhaust area open
NOTE: An internal thermal overload devise is built into the vacuum motor. This stops the motor when airflow needed for cooling is restricted.
