  If the motor of your Scheppach Saw doesn't work, the issue might stem from a defective motor, cable, or plug, or even burnt fuses. It's also possible the housing cover isn't closed properly, activating a limit switch. Have a specialist inspect the machine; never attempt motor repairs yourself due to the danger. Check and replace fuses as needed, and ensure the housing cover is securely closed.
