Possible the motor is dying. The model number you posted does not come up. Verify and repost it please.

As Gene said it sounds like the motor is overheating.

Check that the motor and it's cooling fins are not clogged with lint.

I had one a while ago that the blower housing seal was shot and it was blowing hot air back onto the motor causing it to overheat.

It is also a good time to clean/check your vent system.
