Troubleshooting the resaw band saw

I tried to used the resaw last night, but I couldn’t get it to power up. The main switch was in the On position, I reset the e-stop, checked the foot brake several times, even using my hand to make sure it was fully up, checked the power cable.

What else can I try when this happens? I’m assuming it’s user error, either mine or the person before me.

Also, thanks to @jamesfreeman for showing me the foot brake trick last week.

It seems to be an issue with the emergency stop.

That thing feels incredibly flimsy on such a stout machine.
