FEEDING PROBLEMS
1.
The stock stops but the feed-rollers continue to turn. This is a traction or friction problem.
●
Make sure the stock is not binding in the guides.

Make sure the stock is of consistent width. Sizing stock is recommended.
●
Make sure the stock is the proper width for the knife profile.
●
Make sure the head is set at the correct height.
●
Check the rollers for wear or residue.
●
Check the pressure screw tension.
2.
One roller stops while the other continues to operate.
