Hey,
It's been years since I have been on this forum. And unfortunately years since I've used my BT3K. Got it out last night to make some cuts on 2x4's. It fired up fine after cleaning and vacuuming dust and debris.
However - not so lucky with the 2x4s. They started smoking really bad. So much so the smoke alarms went off in the basement and now have smoky burnt wood smell.
Got up, tried it again, more smoke.
The blade looks likes it's been inactive for years - which it has. But there's not a big buildup at all on any of the teeth.
I'm making relatively slow cuts - slower than normal considering the circumstances. The motor - though, seems fine.
Any thoughts? Even when I used the saw regularly - I didn;t abuse it - everything is in great shape considering the inactivity.
Any thoughts are appreciated! Thanks!
