Thanks for the advise everyone!!!

Thanks for the advise everyone. going to break down power head today and clean and lube...

Been running it on same circuit since i bought it 2 years ago. never had problem until i adjusted speed dial..

My shopsmith was running fine, i adjusted speed and it began tripping breaker. I removed power head, took off belt and motor does not trip breaker on it's own. Any thoughts???
