Default Dying Motor on Sears Table Saw?

Take the motor outdoors. Spray the berrings with trichlor, or some
other solvent. Brake cleaner is OK.

Let it dry a few minutes, oil the berrings with zoom spout turbine
oil. Two cycle mixing oil is OK if you can't find zoom spout. But the
little bottles make life a lot easier.

Let the flammable solvent dry out completely. reassemble, should work
better.

I've had this table saw for at least 20 years. Lately, it's
been tripping the breaker with greater frequency. I'm
wondering if the motor is wearing out, or if I should
check something else.

Thanks,

Mike
