If the rip fence on your MasterCraft Saw isn't moving smoothly, it could be due to a few reasons. First, check if the rip fence is mounted correctly and remount it if necessary. Dirty or sticky rails can also hinder movement; clean and wax the rails. Lastly, the clamp screw might be out of adjustment, so adjust the clamp screw.

Why does my MasterCraft 055-6739-8 Saw vibrate excessively?
Excessive vibration in your MasterCraft Saw can be due to several reasons. The blade might be out of balance, damaged, or warped, in which case you should replace it. Ensure the saw is securely mounted by tightening all hardware. An uneven work surface can also cause vibration, so reposition the saw on a flat surface.
What to do if my MasterCraft 055-6739-8 cutting binds or burns the wood?
If your MasterCraft Saw's cutting binds or burns the wood, several factors could be responsible. A dull blade may be the cause, so try replacing or sharpening it. Ensure you are not feeding the wood too quickly; try slowing the feed rate. The rip fence may also be misaligned and require alignment. Finally, warped wood can cause binding, so replace the wood and always cut with the convex side to the table surface.
