I was using my Shop Fox double drum sander this morning and the drums stopped turning. YES, I did have a lot of amps on that pass. I think it is (Hopefully) an overload switch or reset button. The owners manual says the thermal protection circuit breaker could be tripped tripped. I don’t want to start taking the wrong things apart without a little advise. Plus sometimes when you walk away from something like this they reset themselves. Any advise will be appreciated, Kevin

What model do you have? Does the owners manual show where the thermal reset is located?
It's either going to be on the end of the motor itself, or if there is a contactor control box mounted on the machine, it will be in there.

The grizzly model has a reset button just below the start stop switch.
Manual is online.

Thanks for the replies. The reset was behind the plate that holds the switches. Easy fix, just a bother to lose time.
