How to Replace the Capacitor on a Craftsman Radial Arm Saw

Here’s a video on how I fixed an annoying problem with my Sears Craftsman model 113 radial arm saw.  I was having intermittent problems with the saw blade not spinning and the motor just humming.  After a couple projects, I couldn’t get the blade to spin at all and when I turned the saw on, it would trip the breaker.  I was able to get it working again by replacing the capacitor on the motor and shot this video to show you how to do that repair.
