Title: popping noise from prochem porty
Post by: Craig - CW Window Cleaning on December 17, 2010, 09:23:43 pm

Hi all           machine (steempro powerplus)
Was on a job this evening, whilst extracting about 5 mins into the job had two popping noises from machine.
Stopped had brief look over no smoke or anything suspicious and motors swtithed back on ok
Should I strip down and check the motors.
only thing I can think of is that earlier in the day I sanitised my waste tank and pipes and may of squirted water in the wire gorze at the top.

your opinions welcome

I would run the vac motors dry for a few minutes last job and keep your lid open overnight or waste tap open
You might of got them a little wet/damp?

Moisture sounds the obvious thing.  But apart from that, how old are the motors?  Have you checked the brushes?
