Why does my RIDGID TS2400 keep tripping the circuit breaker?
If the fuses or circuit breakers of your RIDGID Saw are opening frequently, it could be due to the motor being overloaded. Try feeding the material into the blade more slowly. Another possible cause is that the fuses or circuit breakers do not have sufficient capacity. Consider installing properly sized fuses or circuit breakers.
What to do if my RIDGID TS2400 Saw motor stalls and blows fuses?
If the motor of your RIDGID Saw stalls, resulting in blown fuses or tripped circuit breakers, it could be because the voltage is too low for the motor to reach operating speed. Request a voltage check from the power company. Another possibility is that the fuses or circuit breakers do not have sufficient capacity. In that case, install proper size fuses or circuit breakers.
Why is my RIDGID TS2400 motor overheating?
If the motor of your RIDGID Saw overheats, it could be due to the motor being overloaded. Try feeding the workpiece into the blade more slowly. Another potential cause is improper cooling. Clean out any sawdust to allow for normal air circulation through the motor. Refer to the “Maintenance” and “Lubrication” section for more details.
How to reduce vibration on my RIDGID TS2400?
Excessive vibration in your RIDGID Saw is often due to a blade that is out of balance or damaged. The suggested solution is to replace the blade.
Why doesn't my RIDGID Saw have full power?
If the motor of your RIDGID Saw fails to develop full power, it could be due to several reasons. The circuit might be overloaded with lights, appliances, and other motors. Avoid using other appliances or motors on the same circuit while using the saw. Another cause could be a wiring circuit (or extension cord) that is too long or undersized. Increase wire sizes, or reduce the length of the circuit. Refer to the “Motor Specifications and electrical Requirements” section. General overloading of power company facilities can also be a factor; request a voltage check from the power company. Finally, incorrect fuses or circuit breakers in the power line could be the issue; install correct fuses or circuit breakers.
What to do if my RIDGID Saw cut binds when ripping?
If the cut binds, burns, or stalls the motor when ripping with your RIDGID Saw, several factors could be responsible. First, the blade might be dull or have an improper tooth set; sharpen or replace the blade. Second, the blade might be heeling; see the “Alignment” section, “Heeling Adjustment.” Third, a warped board could be the issue; make sure the concave or hollow side is facing “down” and feed slowly. Fourth, the rip fence might not be parallel to the blade; see the “Alignment” section, “Aligning Rip Fence.” Finally, the spreader could be out of alignment; see the “Alignment” section, “Installing Blade Guard.”
Why does my RIDGID Saw start slowly?
If the motor of your RIDGID Saw starts slowly or fails to reach full speed, low voltage could be the cause. Request a voltage check from the power company. Alternatively, the motor windings might be burned out or open. Have the motor repaired or replaced.
Why is my RIDGID TS2400 Saw so loud?
If your RIDGID Saw is producing excessive noise, the motor may be the source of the problem. Have the motor checked by a qualified service technician. Repair service is available at your nearest Authorized Service Center.
What causes a RIDGID TS2400 Saw motor to spark?
If the motor of your RIDGID Saw runs intermittently, sparks excessively, or fails to start, it may be due to worn or damaged brushes. Replace the brushes; refer to the “Maintenance” section.
