Craftsman radial arm saw motor runs slow

Me Too.

Had the same experience with a Sears table saw (practically and antique
now). A good blow out with the shop vac put it back into service.

I also have had this problem. I took it to a motor repair shop. I
forgot which part gets dusty but all he did was to blow out the dust in
the motor with an air hose. I had the problem again a couple of years
later and did the same thing (blew the motor out with an air hose) and
it works fine. Hope this helps.

I also have had this problem. I took it to a motor repair shop. I
forgot which part gets dusty but all he did was to blow out the dust in
the motor with an air hose. I had the problem again a couple of years
later and did the same thing (blew the motor out with an air hose) and
it works fine. Hope this helps.

"I found two small wires not connected "

Huh!? Were they ever connected to anything? If not apparent, probably not.
Thus look elsewhere for the cause of the problem. Is there a capacitor in
the existing circuit? Do any of the coils appear darkened? Black, burnt?
Does the motor employ brushes against an armature? If so, have you examined
both parts?
