The Metabo is a tight package for sure. I am sure, because of the tight packaging, heat can beome an issue. I usually polish in the 1100 RPM range and have never had it overheat. It will get warm though. Could it be that it is not receiving enough current from the house electrical system? The cord on the machine is super easy to replace if that makes you feel any better.
