Why is the workpiece burned when cut with my Grizzly Power Tool?
- S
  Sara DavisJul 26, 2025
  If the workpiece is burned when cut with your Grizzly Power Tool, several factors could be at play. A dull cutter may be the culprit, in which case you should replace it or have it professionally sharpened. Alternatively, the feed rate might be too slow; try increasing the feed speed. Pitch build-up on the cutter can also cause burning, so clean the cutter with a blade and bit cleaning solution. Ensure the cutter is rotating in the correct direction by reversing it if necessary. Finally, taking too deep of a cut can lead to burning. Try making several passes with lighter cuts.

What to do if my Grizzly Power Tool causes chipping?

  Michelle BrownAug 2, 2025
  Chipping when using your Grizzly Power Tool can occur due to knots or conflicting grain direction in the wood. Inspect the workpiece and only use clean stock. A nicked or chipped cutter can also cause this, so replace or sharpen the cutter. Feeding the workpiece too fast or taking too deep of a cut are other potential causes; slow down the feed rate and reduce the cutting depth, especially with hardwoods. Finally, cutting against the grain of the wood can lead to chipping, so ensure you cut with the grain.

Why does my Grizzly Power Tool leave fuzzy grain?
- J
  Joseph HernandezAug 9, 2025
  Fuzzy grain when using the Grizzly Power Tool can be attributed to a couple of reasons. The wood may have a high moisture content or surface wetness; check the moisture content and allow the wood to dry if it's more than 20%. Also, a dull cutter can cause fuzzy grain, so consider replacing or sharpening it.

How to prevent divots in the edge of the cut with my Grizzly G1035?
- S
  Stacy PearsonAug 17, 2025
  Divots in the edge of the cut made by your Grizzly Power Tool can be caused by a few things. Inconsistent feed speed can lead to this issue, so try to move smoothly or use a power feeder. Inconsistent pressure against the fence and rub collar is another potential cause; ensure you apply constant pressure. Lastly, the fence may not be adjusted correctly, so check and adjust the fence as needed.
