  If your Chicago Electric Grinder isn't starting, first ensure the cord is properly plugged in. Then, check if the outlet has power. If not, turn off the tool and inspect the circuit breaker. If the breaker tripped, confirm the circuit's capacity is adequate for the tool and isn't overloaded. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the tool may have internal damage or wear, and a technician should service it.

Why is my Chicago Electric 60656 Grinder overheating?

  Richard AdamsAug 4, 2025
  Your Chicago Electric Grinder may be overheating due to several reasons. Avoid forcing the tool to work too fast; allow it to operate at its own pace. Check for blocked motor housing vents and, using ANSI-approved safety goggles and a NIOSH-approved dust mask/respirator, blow out any dust with dry compressed air. Also, the motor might be strained by a long or small diameter extension cord. Try eliminating the extension cord, or if it's necessary, use one with the correct diameter for its length and load.

  Andrew BaldwinAug 9, 2025
  If your Chicago Electric Grinder operates slowly, it might be due to excess pressure being applied to the workpiece. Decrease the pressure and allow the tool to do the work. Another cause could be a long or small diameter extension cord reducing power. Try eliminating the extension cord. If an extension cord is needed, use one with the proper diameter for its length and load.
