edit. just read your post properly. Still sounds like belts. Was there any change in the sound after changing tension?

Curious to see flat belts on a modern saw. In the old days, flat belt drives sometimes needed applications of so called "belt jam" jollop but not even seen that for sale in decades.
If so does the brake run hot with protracted running? if so suggests it is not releasing properly and needs adjustment. Whilst you are in there see if the fan could be slipping but I doubt it on the new motor.

I've put some more tension on... Still screeches at me
Is there something I can apply to the belt to make it more grippy? Or perhaps it's the quality of the belt rubber.
I'm not sure if this is my responsibility or the supplier of the new saw
