The unit wont cut off with the switch. The only way to get it to cut off is to unplug it. We have taken the switch off and everything appears to be in good shape and none of the wires appear to be loose.

Hiretech SanderFloor HTF2 2014: Runs for a few minutes then stops

Fri, 12 Aug 2022 11:13:36 -0700

The arm that causes the vibrations can be rotated about a half turn and the machine works again for 2 minutes, then stops vibrating again. I'm not going in until I have a plan. I'm thinking the serpentine belt is shot or the pulley it wraps around has worn smooth. Is this common?
