  If your Wen Grinder's motor isn't starting, check the power cord, extension cord, power plug, and outlet to ensure everything is properly plugged in and undamaged. Also, verify that the circuit is providing 120V power. If the problem persists, stop using the tool and call 1-800-232-1195 for customer service, as there may be a defective power switch, motor, wiring, capacitor, short circuit, or loose connections.

Why does my Wen BG4260 motor overheat?

  Ryan ScottAug 5, 2025
  Your Wen Grinder motor may be overheating because it is overloaded. Try reducing the load on the motor by applying less pressure to the workpiece. Another possible cause is using an extension cord that is too long or of insufficient gauge. Use an appropriate extension cord or plug the tool directly into the outlet.

  If the grinding wheel on your Wen Grinder isn't rotating smoothly or evenly, it might be improperly installed. Re-install the wheel according to the instructions. The wheel may also be worn out or imbalanced, in which case you should replace it. If the spindle is not straight, stop using the tool and call 1-800-232-1195 for customer service.

  A wavy finish on your workpiece from the Wen Grinder can occur if the machine is vibrating. Ensure it's securely positioned on a level surface. Also, check that the workpiece is held firmly in place. If the wheel face is uneven, dress the grinding wheel according to the instructions.
