I have a Craftsman table saw that occasionally does this. Mine has a red button that you need to push after a period of time when the thermal overload relay cools. Pushing the red button before it cools will not reset the motor.
Sometimes there is an overload on the motor, it usually just looks like a
round button, after the motor cools it is resettable. If no overload on the
motor, and it has cooled down and will not start, it could be a tart/run
cap. Just a couple of things to check for

Subject: [DIY] Motor on Craftsman Table saw
I was ripping a 2x4 and it jammed and before I could hit the power switch
the motor stalled and now t won't turn on. I looked for a reset switch, but
didn't find any. This is an late 80's model, all steel and cast iron with an
external motor.
Is this fixable for someone not quite versed in electrical motors?
TIA,
John
