It could be on its last legs.
Hope the timber is not round as in my books on saws it clearly states not to be used for cutting logs or round timber. I assume your cutting up off cuts from DIY jobs. I can only assume why the say NO to cutting round lumber that it may have the effect you describe. ie: over heating the saw.
