ddesmond Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Something is wrong with the electric motor of a Dewalt DW744 portable table saw that I inherited. Smoking, and not working. Is it worth it to fix it, or too expensive? Should I even bother to take it to an electric motor repair shop? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 They haven’t made that one in a while this you try brushes? Is the arbor straight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddesmond Posted November 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 No. I don't know much about motors. Are those the little things with springs attached? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Yup exactly. They are a pretty cheap item to replace too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisK Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Here is a link with a break down of your saw... https://www.ereplacementparts.com/dewalt-dw744-type-jobsite-table-saw-parts-c-1009_2657_2776.html Ive been using these guys for years, they are great, can be a little slow in shipping but the diagram might allow you to get parts quicker from someone else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddesmond Posted November 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Okay, I will try this. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 If the arbor is out of whack that’ll be a problem but maybe it’ll be a simple and CHEAP fix for a great saw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddesmond Posted November 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Surely I can try something similar, like for their miter saw? https://www.amazon.com/Dewalt-DW713-DW715-Replacement-614367-00-2pk/dp/B00J5S6Y80/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1510498272&sr=8-5&keywords=dewalt+brushes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMG Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 On the link that I posted above, there is a list of compatible tools, the dw713 is not on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
