the vacuum filter(s) are blocked,or may have partial pipe blockage this is causing the thermal overload to trip.
clean the filters, check the pipes.
black socks are a likely culprit you don't see them

They often have an overheat cut out switch that self resets. To stop the motor bursting into flames.
The filters may be blocked - the motor may be running too hot because of some electrical reason - the safety cut out may be acting prematurely.
Give it a clean and run it without the hose connected and see what happens.
