Dust Collector sucked a towel ... won't work
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 |
