.... and I went down to find that my table saw was running. 8-O This does not make me happy. It had been running for a while, too -- I could smell the rubber from the belt and it felt hot (I had a dado stack still on the arbor from the last time I used it).
I tried pushing the red "off" button and it didn't work. I had to unplug it to get it to stop, and then when I plugged it back in it started running again. This made me even less happy, since magnetic switches are definitely NOT supposed to do that! Out of nothing more than frustration I gave the switch a good WHACK, and then it worked as normal.
Needless to say the poltergeist will remain unplugged until I sort this out... any idea what the problem is?
