    Why won't the motor on my Wen Saw start?
    • J
      jenniferhayesAug 3, 2025
      If the motor of your Wen Saw won't start, first, check the power cord, extension cord, power plug, and the power outlet, ensuring they are properly plugged in and undamaged. Next, verify that the outlet has power. If unpowered, turn off the saw and check the power supply’s circuit breaker, ensuring the circuit's capacity is right for the tool and has no other loads. Also, remove and reinstall the carbon brushes, replacing them if necessary. If these steps don't resolve the issue, it could be due to a defective power switch, motor, short circuit, or loose connections; in that case, stop using the tool and contact customer service.

    Why is my Wen Band Saw overheating?

      jkramerAug 7, 2025
      If your Wen Band Saw is overheating, try the following: Reduce the cutting speed and decrease the pressure on the workpiece, allowing the tool to work without excessive force. Replace the blade with a new, sharp one if it's dull or damaged. Clear any blockages from the motor housing vents using compressed air while wearing safety goggles and a dust mask. Also, ensure you are using an extension cord of the appropriate gauge and length, or plug the tool directly into the outlet.

    How to troubleshoot a Wen 94396 Saw when the motor will not start?
    • E
      eric22Aug 17, 2025
      If your Wen Saw motor won't start, first check the power cord, extension cord, power plug, and the power outlet for any damage or improper connection. Do not use the tool if any part is damaged. Also, verify that there is power at the outlet. If the outlet is unpowered, turn off the tool and check the power supply’s circuit breaker. If the breaker is tripped, ensure the circuit has the right capacity for the tool and no other loads are on the same circuit. Another possible cause is that carbon brushes are not properly installed. Remove and re-install the carbon brushes and replace them if necessary.

      Joy MccoyAug 22, 2025
      If your Wen Saw experiences reduced performance, it might be due to worn or damaged carbon brushes. Replace the carbon brushes (94396-029). Alternatively, the blade might be dull or damaged, in which case you should replace it with a new saw blade (94396B).
