Stop using the saw immediately and allow it to cool down. Check for any obstructions or build-up around the motor. Ensure that the saw is not being used beyond its intended duty cycle. If overheating persists, consult a professional technician.

How can I reduce vibration when using the Scheppach Deco-Flex saw?

Ensure the saw is placed on a stable surface and all feet are in contact with the surface. Check that the blade is properly tensioned and installed correctly. Use a finer blade for more precise cuts, which can reduce vibration.

What is the correct way to store the Deco-Flex saw when not in use?

Unplug the saw and clean it thoroughly. Release the blade tension to prolong blade life. Store the saw in a dry, dust-free environment to prevent rust and corrosion. Cover it with a dust cover if possible.
