  First, check that the power cord is properly plugged in. Then, ensure the outlet has power; if not, check the circuit breaker, making sure the circuit's capacity matches the tool's needs and isn't overloaded. If your tool has a thermal reset breaker, turn it off, let it cool, and press the reset button. If none of these steps work, internal damage or wear may be the cause, and you should have a technician service the tool.

  Your Central Machinery sander may be overheating because you are forcing the machine to work too fast, so allow it to work at its own rate. Also, check for blocked motor housing vents and clear any dust using compressed air while wearing safety goggles and a dust mask. Finally, using a long or small diameter extension cord can strain the motor. Eliminate the extension cord, or use one with the proper diameter for its length and load.
