Why is the motor running too hot on my Scantool Saw?
- MMarie SmithAug 15, 2025
If the Scantool Saw motor is running too hot, there are several potential causes: * The blade tension may be too high, so reduce the tension on the blade. * The drive belt tension might be too high, so reduce tension on the drive belt. * The blade might be too coarse or too fine for the material, so use a finer or coarser blade, respectively. * The gears may be aligned improperly; adjust them so the worm is in the center of the path. * The gears may need lubrication; check the oil path. * The cut might be binding the blade; decrease the reed anti-speed.
