  Kevin BenderAug 2, 2025
  If your MasterCraft Saw is making crooked cuts, it could be due to several factors. Ensure your workpiece is square by using a miter gauge and adjusting the table tilt to 90 degrees. Reduce the rate at which you are feeding the material into the blade. Check that the blade guides are properly adjusted, positioning both guide blocks within 0.002” of the blade using a gauge. Also, adjust the upper guide to just clear the workpiece by 1/4”. Replace the blade if it is dull. Finally, ensure the blade guide assembly and blade thrust bearing are tightened properly, with the blade thrust bearing positioned within 0.002” behind the blade back.

Why is the motor on my MasterCraft 055-6748-6 running too hot?
- M
  Michael ReyesAug 6, 2025
  If the motor of your MasterCraft Saw is running too hot, it might be because the blade is either too coarse when cutting materials like pipe, or too fine when cutting slick or soft materials. Try using a blade with finer teeth for pipe and coarser teeth for slick or soft materials. Also, make sure to clean the saw thoroughly to remove any excessive dirt and chips.

How to prevent excessive blade breakage on MasterCraft 055-6748-6?
- A
  Ana HendersonAug 11, 2025
  Excessive blade breakage in your MasterCraft Saw can occur for several reasons. Ensure the material is securely placed on the table. If the blade is too coarse for the material, switch to a finer pitch blade. Make sure the blade is in contact with the work only after the saw is started and has reached full speed. Properly adjust the blade guides. If the blade is too thick for the wheel diameter, use a thinner blade. If you notice cracking at the weld, replace the blade.

What to do if MasterCraft 055-6748-6 is producing rough cuts?
- J
  Julie CurryAug 17, 2025
  Rough cuts from your MasterCraft Saw can be caused by feeding the material too quickly, so reduce the feed rate. If the blade is too coarse or the cut is binding the blade, replace it with a finer blade and decrease feed pressure. Worn blade guides or bearings can also lead to rough cuts, so replace them if necessary. Ensure blade guides are properly adjusted. Also, check and properly tighten any loose blade guide brackets.

Why is the blade on my MasterCraft 055-6748-6 dulling prematurely?
- D
  Denise LeeAug 21, 2025
  Premature blade dulling in your MasterCraft Saw can be due to several factors. Try using a finer tooth blade. Gently increase the pressure if the feed pressure is inadequate. If there are hard spots or scale on the material, reduce the speed and increase the feed rate for scale, and change blades for hard spots. Also, ensure the blade is installed correctly; if installed backwards, remove it, twist it inside out, and reinstall.

What causes teeth ripping from blade on MasterCraft 055-6748-6?
- R
  rrodriguezAug 27, 2025
  Teeth ripping from the blade of your MasterCraft Saw can occur if the teeth are too coarse for the material you are cutting, so use a blade with finer teeth. If you're feeding the material too quickly, decrease the feed rate. Ensure the workpiece isn't vibrating by holding it firmly. If the teeth are filling with material, switch to a blade with coarser teeth.
