« on: October 23, 2013, 02:37:55 pm »
Hi guys i was using my powr flite today and the vacuum went high pitched a couple of times and was still working but no suction..each time i turned it off for a minute and turned it back on and it was fine afterwards...
Any ideas what this could be?

Possibly the ball in the cage jumping up.

Can be because of an air leak in the dump hose or the little hose cap not being on or because of lint blocking the cage.

If its a PFX1350 it may be a broken J hook that holds the motor causing it not to seal properly.
