Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug and allow to cool.
- Check hose for blockages: Clear any obstructions to reduce motor load.
- Inspect handle switch wiring: Look for discoloured or loose terminals. Tighten or replace the handle switch assembly if overheating.
- Avoid long thin extension leads: Use a heavy-duty extension rated for the machine's current draw.
