Hey everyone,
I’ve had my cv1800 for about 4 months now. It works very well, when I use it. What I’ve come to find is that I hardly turn it on unless I’m milling a lot of stock or making a lot of cuts. I had read that it’s really hard on the motor to start and stop it a lot for small cuts, and that it needs a 10 minute minimum run time. My question is, how hard on the motor are talking? Say if I start it up for a few table saw cuts and shut it down after a minute, then 5 minutes later fire it up again, what kind of prolonged damage could I do to the motor?
My my reason for getting the cv1800 was for better air quality and chip collection , but so far my worry about the motor has made me barely use it, meaning I’m doing the opposite of what I intended. I’m going to just start using it like my previous DC and turn it on and off as necessary.
