What could cause it to lock up and beep slowly and how can I fix it?
Is this a good question?

Hi @josephspen68524
Have you checked that the battery is fully charged or tried a different, known working, compatible battery in the saw?

I would remove the saw blade to see if it is jammed up. With it removed is the motor able to run or just sit beeping.
