1. Saw not plugged in - Yes it is
2. Fuse Blown or CB tripped - Saw no mention in manual for fuse, CB
(Reset)
still in depressed mode.
3. Cord damaged - Nothing visible, only exposed connections are Grounds,
all
are secure, no other visible connections...

Is there a fuse, or simply the Circuit Breaker??

I had a Craftsman that did that occasionally. Mine had a red reset button
on the motor. It always looked the same but when it did reset it would
click. Sometimes I had to wait a few hours for the reset switch to cool
down before it would reset.
But since the motor was working when you turned it off it sound more like a
short. Use a volt meter and narrow down the problem.
