Default Craftsman Radial Arm Saw Motor Removal

I have a Sears Model Number 113.197150 radial arm saw that is late
eighties/early nineties vintage. The blade jammed into a piece of wood
and now the motor hums, but does not spin when I turn it on. I have
replaced the capacitor, but no luck. I wanted to take the motor off
and have an electric motor shop take a look at it, but I can't figure
out how to disconnect the power cord from the arm. Do I need to take
the arm apart to get to the wire connections or do I try to take the
motor apart? I can't figure out how to take the arm apart to get to
the wires.



I have a .199350 version of the saw.
Several years ago I replaced the electric cord with a longer one.
As I recall, I took off the end plates of the arm and the cover then
slips off.
You can reach the terminals under the cover. (if that's what you're
looking for)

Nope, it's different.
Yours is like mine, but not the same as his.
