UNPLUG THE SAW first!! Look for the blade lock on the top or front of the motor body, Hold the lock button down while turning the blade nut with a wrench. After a bit you'll feel the lock button engage and hold the blade firm. Rotate the the wrench counter clockwise and remove the nut, Slide the blade out from under the guard and replace with a new one. Reinstall the nut following the above procedure.

SOURCE: Milwaukee 6390 dead

I dont know how old the tool is but when I worked on them it was notorious for exploding the commutator and damaging the brush holders, hopefully yours didn't do that. You have voltage at both brush holder then I would remove the brushes (UNPLUG TOOL FIRST) making sure they are not sticking in the tubes and while they are out rotate the tool by hand and look for any noticable difference in the commutator bars. Check all the connections from the field to make sure the circuit is complete like it sounds that you have done and if so that just leaves the two items I mentioned. Let me know if I can help further.

SOURCE: I have a 7 1/4 milwaukee circular saw.It won't

Could be quite a few, what is the model number. Do you have a volt ohms meter, if so check the cord first (UNPLUG) and across the switch then lock the switch on and check the brush holder leads. If you loose continuity anywhere in this process that is probably the problem. What did the brushes look like, did the mating surface look smooth or burnt. Let me know and I will try and help also give me the model number and brand, the header has 2 listed.

SOURCE: B&D Corded Circular Saw - Arbor Does Not Move

This model is not equipped with a clutch so its possible that the gears are stripped, shaft broken. If the blade moves freely then this is probably the case. If blade does not move freely, check for any foreign objects between blade and blade housing. I hope this has helped if you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask. Please rate on the helpfulness of the answer. Good Luck and have a great weekend.

Testimonial: "Thank you for your prompt response. My B&D Circ Saw Model is 7301-Type2. I will try your recommendation. Will keep you posted. Thanks again."

Saw won't turn when blade is attached, just clicks?

Dose it spin with the blade off. If so then the blade is bent take the blade off and put it on a flat surface if it dosn't lay flat you need a new blade.Even if you could strighen it enough to rotate it wouldn't cut vary good and wouldn't be safe to use.

Clean the armature and install new brushes, the armature is burned with carbon and loses its ability to conduct electricity properly. Make sure to in between every copper rib on the armature so it doesn't ground itself back out.

Cant push in the release button to take off the blade on a Ridgid R3200 circular saw

Happens to my Milwaukee sometimes. Spin the blade around (by hand) while trying to push in the lock button. That will usually engage it. If not, the old-fashioned way of wedging the blade against the base with a piece of scrap wood always works
