Thermal Reset:
If the thermal reset engages this is a sign that the motor is over heating.
Continued over heating will damage the motor. The thermal reset will
reset it’s self once the motor is cooled. Do not force the thermal reset as it
will damage the reset and motor. The causes of the thermal reset
activating are:
1. Too Long or Too Thin of Extension Cord (Low Voltage). Use
the correct length and gauge of Extension Cord.
2. Low Voltage Power Supply. Use a power supply with the
correct voltage.
3. Incorrect Blade of Application. Contact Norton Clipper’s
customer service or your local sales person for the correct blade
specification for your cutting application.
4. Overloading Machine. At a shallower depth. Make multiple
passes (Step Cutting) at no more than 1-1/4” deep. Cut at a
slower forward speed.
Damage or failure of a motor due to continued over heating as the result
of incorrect extension cord length/size, incorrect power supply, incorrect
application, and continued overloading is not covered under warranty.
