The Circuit Breaker (part# A028-0114B) is a genuine Tacony OEM replacement part shared across several Riccar and CleanMax Zoom commercial upright vacuums. This resettable thermal circuit breaker protects the vacuum motor from overcurrent and overheating, cutting power before damage occurs and allowing a manual reset once the machine has cooled.
Compatible Models for the Circuit Breaker
- CleanMax ZM-200
- CleanMax ZM-400
- Riccar R10E
The Circuit Breaker (part# A028-0114B) is the motor overload protector inside the vacuum. When the motor draws too much current, from a clogged airway, a jammed brushroll, or a failing bearing, the breaker trips and interrupts power to the motor. After the machine cools, pressing the small reset button restores the circuit so the vacuum can run again. It is a safety component that prevents the motor winding from burning out under sustained overload.
Replace the Circuit Breaker (part# A028-0114B) if the vacuum suddenly shuts off during normal use and will not restart until it has cooled, if it trips repeatedly even when the airway and brushroll are clear, if the reset button pops out immediately after you press it, or if you see scorching or a burnt smell around the breaker terminals. A breaker that no longer resets or trips with no load is worn and should be swapped.
Installation is a like-for-like swap of the Circuit Breaker (part# A028-0114B); always unplug the vacuum before opening the housing and match the new part to the original position. Twin City Vacuum has been selling and servicing CleanMax and Riccar equipment since 1956.
