We made a zero clearance saw insert. I started it up and the blade started to make a loud metallic noise about half way to full RPM then quit after a moment. I started and restarted the saw several times to see if it persisted, which it did.
I removed the insert and removed some material from the front edge that may have been causing the noise.
When I tried to start the saw the green start button had remained depressed and the saw would not start.
I unplugged it and let it sit for a couple of hours while I went out and about. The start button remains depressed.
I wonder if this is a coincidence and the switch is the problem?
Please understand I am with little electrical or mechanical ability.
