Official Ryobi power saw parts

Commonly replaced Ryobi power saw parts

Keeping your Ryobi power saw in top condition often requires replacing worn or broken components. Here are some of the most commonly replaced parts:

• Drive motor: Powers the arbor shaft to rotate the saw blade, enabling precise cuts.
• Motor overload: Protects the motor by shutting off power when the blade binds or overheats. Reset the switch after clearing the blade and allowing the motor to cool.
• Saw blade: The circular blade with teeth cuts through workpieces and may need replacement if it becomes dull or damaged.
• Blade guard: A clear plastic cover positioned over the blade to prevent accidental contact. Replace the guard if it becomes cracked or warped.
• Carbon motor brushes: Transfers power to the armature. Replace the brushes when they wear down to maintain consistent motor performance.

Troubleshooting a Ryobi power saw that won’t start

If your Ryobi power saw isn’t starting, follow these troubleshooting steps:

1. Reset the overload: If the motor won’t start after resetting the overload, check the power supply.
2. Test the electrical outlet: Plug another device into the outlet to confirm it’s working. If the outlet is dead, reset the house circuit breaker or try a different outlet.
3. Inspect the power cord: Examine the cord for damage or loose wires. Replace or reconnect the cord as needed.
4. Check the overload: Unplug the saw and use a multimeter to test for continuity through the overload. Replace the overload if there’s no continuity.
5. Test the on/off switch: With the saw unplugged, check for continuity through the switch in the “on” position. Replace the switch if the meter doesn’t measure continuity.
