Intermitant Loss of Power

My pallet jack will run then seems to lose power (will brake) frequently. When it stops then you wait a few seconds and it will go again then stop. It happens every 30 seconds or so.
Thank you

if you pull the back cover off and count how many times the LED light blinks when you are having this issue would help. have a look at the base of the handle for any problems with the photocell.

When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
