Had this saw for 25 years was working great last week was not over heating, midway in a rip cut the saw just stopped. I thought I had kneed the power switch - nope. and it wont start up. Any ideas? doubt new motor is practical. Thanks

I had a similar incident a few years back with my mid 80’s vintage table
saw. It turned out that the motor was literally packed with sawdust from use over the years.

I used a shop vac and some compressed air to solve the issue. I would caution you to use a dust mask, because it is a very dirty/dusty job,

Similar experience. While it had a lot of sawdust, there was a wood
chip in the contacts in the start circuit for the motor. This switch
is under the plate on the end of the motor. (Assuming your motor is
similar to mine basically the same as yours)

Since I had the problem with the motor, part of the clean up process is
to vacuum he vents in the motor casing

That's why pretty much all induction motors used for woodworking

Thermal switch on the end of the motor, or circuit breaker, or GFI.

That's why pretty much all induction motors used for woodworking
machines are TEFC. It's a nasty environment.

My table saw was purchased new in 1969, and runs as well now as it did
then. The table surface is clean as it was when it was new.

That's not normal. It's a dusty environment (duh!) so modern tools
use TEFCs. Do any tools use open frame motors anymore?

'69 isn't exactly modern. Neither am I, though. I was driving by
then. ;-)
