Why my Wen Wood Router motor does not start?
- H
  Hannah MillerJul 30, 2025
  The motor may not start because the power cord is damaged or not properly plugged in. Check the power cord, power plug, and the power outlet. Do not use the machine if the power cord is damaged. Another potential cause is worn motor carbon brushes. Inspect the carbon brushes and replace them if needed.

What to do if my Wen Wood Router vibrates excessively?
- E
  Erika GibsonAug 5, 2025
  Excessive vibration can occur if the router bit is not tightened. Fully tighten the collet nut with a wrench. The router bit diameter might be too large, causing imbalance; reduce the router speed, and if the vibration is severe, stop using the router bit. A bent router bit shaft or worn router bit bearings can also cause vibration; discard the router bit if either of these issues is present.

How to prevent burns when routing with my Wen Wood Router?
- C
  carlos88Aug 13, 2025
  Burning during routing can occur if the router bit is dull, so replace it. The router speed may be too fast, so reduce it. Conversely, the feed speed might be too slow, so increase it. The material itself may be prone to burning; try taking a shallow clean-up pass with a higher feed rate. Also, if the burn is below the profile, the router bit guide bearing (if present) may be worn and needs replacing.
