Assuming a brush motor, that can be compromised by dust from the brushes. If a brushless motor, there is a lot less to go wrong. But, still, making sure the safety earth is quite well done is a good idea. Don't assume a single earth connection to the machine base is sufficient, either, as the well-oiled slideways can be non-conductive.
