May table saw makes a funny noise?
I purchased a used Craftsman 10″ table saw and I’m enjoying using it. It works fine. However it makes a strange intermittent grinding noise after I shut the switch off and it is slowing down. It doesn’t do it when the blade is off the saw. Is this normal? The bearings are all sealed and permanently lubricated. There doesn’t seem to be any play in the main bearing at all.

Have you tried a different blade? Maybe the balance of the blade is a little off and as it’s costing to a stop at a certain rpm there’s a vibration problem.
that is not normal if i were you i would get it looked at
Take out the blade and see if it still makes the sound.
It may be a bad blade as previously stated.
Loose pulleys.
Belt too tight.

Wrong belt.

Warped blade.
Shaft keys missing or not all the way in.
Some or all of the above.
Run the motor w /out the belt.

Look for lube points anyhow.
