Why is the workpiece burned when cut with my Grizzly Power Tool?
- SSara 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.
