Drive belts may come off the pulleys when disengaging the blade on your Wood-Mizer industrial equipment due to a few reasons: * The brake strap is too loose. * The brake drum is misaligned. * The brake strap is tightened unevenly (one edge too loose, the other too tight). To address this, adjust or realign the brake strap and drum as needed.
How to fix Wood-mizer Industrial Equipment blade that does not stop immediately after disengaging?
If the blade on your Wood-Mizer industrial equipment doesn't stop immediately after disengaging, it's likely the brake strap is too loose. To fix this, adjust the brake strap.
Why do Wood-mizer Industrial Equipment blades dull quickly?
Wood-Mizer industrial equipment blades may dull quickly due to several factors: * Dirty logs can cause premature dulling. Clean or debark logs, especially on the entry side of the cut. * Overheating the teeth during grinding can soften them. Grind just enough metal to restore sharpness, and use water/coolant while sharpening. * Poor sharpening techniques can also lead to rapid dulling. Ensure the tip is being sharpened completely.
Why do drive belts wear prematurely or jump on Wood-mizer Industrial Equipment?
If the drive belts on your Wood-Mizer industrial equipment wear prematurely or jump, it's likely that the engine/motor and drive pulleys are out of alignment. To resolve this, align the pulleys.
What to do if Wood-mizer Industrial Equipment blade does not track right on drive wheel?
If the blade on your Wood-Mizer industrial equipment isn't tracking correctly on the drive wheel, consider these potential causes: 1. The tension is too tight. Adjust the blade tension to the recommended specifications. 2. The cant adjustment is incorrect. Readjust the cant. 3. The belts are flat or worn. Replace the B-57 belts. 4. The bearings are frozen. Replace the bearings.
Why do Wood-mizer Industrial Equipment blades break prematurely?
Wood-Mizer industrial equipment blades may break prematurely due to: * Poor sharpening techniques. * Worn rubber belts on blade wheels causing the blade to contact the metal pulley. Look for shiny spots on the edge of the wheels. Change blade wheel belts (B-57) to resolve the second issue.
