Help required ok i have rebuilt my Record planer thicknesser as the cogs the chain runs on have sheared off anyway all parts bought and put back together motor running as it should but i noticed a burning smell coming from the back of the machine as in the photo attached .So could it be because i sprayed the table top with wd 40 and a little bit as gone on the spindle ?? making the belt spin i stupidly touched the spindle nut as in the photo it was red hot apart from that what does the belt actually do ?? And if there was a mistake with my rewiring would the motor start and run with out triping ??
