Have a Look at this Kapex 120 EB

[onocoffee]

Came across this listing for an April 2015 build KS 120 EB (right in that armature problem window). Overall, I thought the saw looked in decent shape, but then I noticed what looks to be some kind of oil/fluid buildup where the casing of the armature meets the saw. That does not seem to bode well.

Any thoughts on what issue this KS 120 is facing?

Thanks!

That area of leakage is usually where there has been some separation of oil from the grease. It normally isn't an issue. Sixteen years later my saw hasn't minded that condition.

How critical an issue would you consider this?
