Ryobi made this saw design for other brands including Craftsman. You may have luck looking up Sears manuals. Sorry I don't have model numbers for you.

Sounds like something is loading up the motor. Is the guard bumper fouling the blade? It may need to be pulled apart and cleaned out. Maybe try a blast of WD40 anywhere where there's a shaft housing and try rotating the motor shaft manually back and forth. Found a parts diagram that may be of use to you - https://www.partswarehouse.com/Ryobi-CSB133L-7-1-4-Laser-Circular-Saw-s/11362.htm

The BT3000 actually has TWO v-belts! Here's a link at the end of this solution to an exploded diagram. Basically you have a major disassembly, but it really isn't that complicated Ryobi did outline the necessary steps in their manuals. The above website also has the owner manual if you need one.

1. Unplug saw
2. Remove the blade
3. Lower mechanism all the way to the bottom
4. Flip over saw and lay on it's top
5. Remove the blade guard panel opposite the motor
6. Unbolt the motor assembly and remove the belt cover
7. Replace the broken belts
8. Re-assemble (be careful not to cross-thread the bolts in the aluminum housings!)

Unplug the saw. If the blade is moving, wait for it to stop. If the blade arm is locked into its down position, push down slightly on the blade arm to release the tension on the blade arm lock pin. Pull out the lock pin to release the blade arm and allow it to move upward. 2 Rotate the lower blade guard upward and expose the Phillips-head screw that holds the blade bolt cover in place. Loosen the screw and rotate the blade bolt cover up and out of the way to expose the hex-head blade bolt. 3 Push the spindle lock button in and rotate the blade bolt until the spindle lock engages fully, stopping the ability of the blade bolt to rotate. 4 Loosen the blade bolt using a 10-millimeter/12-millimeter combination wrench. The blade bolt is lefthand threaded, which is the reverse of conventional threading. Turn the bolt clockwise to loosen and remove it. Note the placement of the outer washer and remove it as well. 5 Place a drop of machine oil on the inner blade bolt washer. Do not remove the inner washer. If it is missing, replace it before replacing the blade. 6 Slide the replacement saw blade up past the lower blade guard and onto the blade spindle. The blade teeth should point downward at the front of the saw. Saw blades often have rotation arrows that can help you double-check that the saw is installed to rotate the correct direction. 7 Press the spindle lock button in to lock the spindle and reinstall the blade bolt. The blade bolt will tighten in a counterclockwise direction. Replace the blade bolt cover and install the blade bolt cover screw. 8 Position a combination square to check that the blade is square to the saw fence and saw table. If the blade is not square, refer to the procedures in the manual for squaring the blade to the fence and table. Things You Will Need

• 10-millimeter/12-millimeter combination wrench
• 5-millimeter hex key
• Combination square
• Phillips screwdriver
• Machine oil

Tip

• Overtightening bolts and screws can result in cross-threading. Cross-threading damage compromises the integrity of bolts and screws and can be a difficult error to correct.

Warning

• Do not attempt to install a blade that is too thick in the saw. If the blade washer cannot engage the flats on the spindle, the blade is too thick for the saw.

you did not give model number. The saw should not be used without blade guard uncles you are to attached to your fingers. the power switch may be bad or it could be motor.

With some circular saws, you have to put the blade all the way down (maximum cut depth) to get it to fit in the case.

The motor is overheating -- or the thermal cutout (safety) switch is malfunctioning. Have it checked by an industrial motor specialist; they're located in most cities.
