6. Blade is loose.
7. Material requires cutting fluid/lubrication.
1. Reduce feed rate/increase blade speed.
2. Tighten/clean/replace V-belt(s) (
Page 45).
3. Install a blade with more suitable TPI or different
style of teeth (
Page 31).
4. Replace blade, adjust guides and tracking (see

5. Use a blade with at least 2 teeth contacting the
material at all times (
Page 31).
6. Clean wheels and increase blade tension
(

and teeth load up and overheat.
4. The workpiece has hard spots, welds, or
scale.
1. Replace blade, and complete blade break-in
procedure (
Page 35).
2. Use a blade that has larger gullets to carry out
