My Jet dust collector sucked up a towel ... it went thru the hose,
thru the fan and lodged in the short tube between the blower and the
collector bag when the motor quit working. The fan spins freely but
the motor won't turn on.

Any ideas appreciated




Paul


is there a reset button on the motor?


No ... but I had immediately checked the circuit I thought the collector
was on and it was OK. Just now I checked the breaker box and the
breaker was tripped. All a ok ...


So, you're not going to have to throw in the towel? grin
