Sad to say, my 3100 is having some trouble. After several years of service, I have encountered my first difficulty with this saw. It has seen very light use, logging a low amount of hours for the time I have owned it (since new).
I had noticed the past several times that it was getting more and more difficult to lift the blade. Lowering it seemed normal, as did adjusting the bevel. Now it is impossible to raise the blade, and seems reluctant to lower. Bevel is still working fine.
The height adjustment 'wheel' turns, and I feel some resistance, but it doesn not engage and raise or lower the blade.
Any suggestions?
