Table 6.1—Troubleshooting

Symptom

Cause

Resolution

Secondary burrs 
are created on work 
piece after cut

Incorrect feed rate

Too heavy a cut

Decrease width of cut/make multiple passes.

Improper Bur selection

Choose bur designed for work material. Refer to 

Section 4.5.1—Bur Selection

.

Bur is worn

Inspect bur if worn, replace. Refer to 

Section 6.2.1—Bur 

and Collet Replacement

.

Motor bearings are 
worn.

Inspect spindle shaft, if shaft feels loose or has 
play, replace. Refer to 

Section 6.2.2—Turbine Motor 

Replacement.

Chip packing of bur

Too heavy a cut

Decrease width of cut/make multiple passes.

Not enough chip 
clearance

Use a bur with less flutes.

The bur stalls

Not enough or no drive 
air

Check drive air regulator for 90 PSI (6.2 Bar) and for leaks.

Bur is not secure in the 
collet.

Properly tighten bur in collet. Refer to 

Section 6.2.1—Bur 

and Collet Replacement

.

Too much side load

Decrease width of cut and make multiple passes.

The turbine motor 
needs to be replaced.

Replace the turbine motor. Refer to

 Section 6.2.2—Turbine 

Motor Replacement
