I have a tile saw that I bought from Habor Freight. The brand is Chicago.

I haven't used it in over a month...maybe 2 months. I turned it on and I could hear the power come on but the blade didn't turn.

I turned if off and checked to see if anything like a chunk of glass might be blocking it by rotating the blade manually. It moves pretty freely.

Do any of you mechanical types have an ideas about what might be wrong with my saw and what I need to do to fix it?

Thanks -

Can you see the motor shaft spin?

Check the belt, mine wore out rather quickly.

Thanks for the suggestions, guys! I took the housing off the bottom of the saw to check the things you suggested and found that it was completely caked with ground glass. I cleaned it out and the saw now works again. It must have dried in there or something since I haven't used it in so long.

Many thanks!
