Hi, new to this forum and hope someone can help. I have an electric Stihl Leaf Vacuum which works great when it’s going but only runs for 4-5 minutes and then cuts out. If I leave it for about 10 minutes it will go again for another 3-4 minutes but then cuts out again.
I’ve checked the wiring inside and all seems to look immaculate. The main electrical cord is also immaculate. I’ve also made sure that the elbow and suction tube are properly mounted so that the union nuts activate the switch which closes the circuit to allow the motor to be switched on.
Any ideas or advice on what to do would be appreciated. Thanks
