Sounds to me that either the fans have been damaged or stripped out, or the bearings have gone out. Either would cause low suction and a lot of noise. I would recomend a new motor, much easier than repairing and old one and will last longer than a rebuild. |

How can the thermal safety cut-off be bypassed without damaging the unit? |
