I had the same problem and used a tool to clean out the suction tube on my Windtunnel Series T. It was full of junk packed in tight. After cleaning it out there's no more turning off or overheating. It actually works better than when I first got it (used from a friend).

Hello my good friend, this cleaner doesn't have a reset button or anything, it resets by itself after cooling down, it takes about 30 minutes to cools down.

This happens all the time on our vacuum. Just remove the handle and switch the button manually inside. You will have to do this from time to time as the power switch on the outside will constantly stop working. This, along with the belt replacements are the common complaints on this machine.

Motor front bearing retainer probably melted from grit. Replace motor. The motor's rotor is dragging on the stator.

Mine was under warranty and they replaced the whole assembly for free. Apparently a quality and/or design problem.
