    Why am I getting wavy cuts with my Wood-mizer Saw?
    • O
      Oscar Garcia PhDAug 18, 2025
      Wavy cuts in your lumber are often due to several factors. It may be because you're feeding the wood too quickly, so try reducing the feed speed. The blade might not be sharpened correctly, so resharpen it. Check if the blade guides are adjusted correctly and adjust if needed. Sap buildup can also cause this, so try using Water Lube. Finally, a tooth set problem can be the reason, so resharpen and reset the blade.

    Why is the lumber not square when using my Wood-mizer LX50 EH7S Saw?
    • N
      Nancy SchroederAug 20, 2025
      If the lumber isn't square, several things could be off. First, the vertical side supports might not be square to the bed, so adjust them. The blade might not be parallel to the bed rails, so adjust the bed rails. Sawdust or bark between the log/cant and the bed can also cause this, so remove any particles. Finally, a tooth set problem can be the reason, so resharpen and reset the blade.

      If the blade isn't tracking correctly on the wheels of your Wood-mizer Saw, the blade wheel might be improperly adjusted, so readjust it. Flat or worn blade wheel belts can also cause this; replace the belts.

    What to do if sawdust builds up on the track of my Wood-mizer LX50 EH7S Saw?
    • T
      Teresa DawsonAug 28, 2025
      Sawdust buildup on the track can occur for a few reasons. You might be using too much lubrication, so apply white lithium grease instead. The wipers could be worn; try adjusting them for firmer contact with the track or replace them. The track itself might be sticky, so clean it and apply silicone spray.

      If the height adjustment is jumping or stuttering, it could be due to a few reasons. The lift cable might be improperly adjusted, so adjust the lift cable. The vertical wear pads might be too tight, so adjust the pads. Alternatively, the lift cable could be too loose, so replace or adjust the lift cable.

      Wavy cuts on your Wood-mizer Saw can occur due to several reasons. Check if your feed speed is excessive and reduce it. The blade might be improperly sharpened, so resharpen it. Ensure your blade guides are properly adjusted. Sap buildup on the blade can also cause this, so use Water Lube. Another potential cause is a tooth set problem, requiring you to resharpen and reset the blade.

    What to do if boards are thick or thin on the ends with my Wood-mizer Saw?
    • J
      jaredsullivanSep 4, 2025
      If you're getting boards that are thick or thin on the ends or in the middle with your Wood-mizer Saw, it could be due to stress in the log, causing it to not lay flat on the bed. After squaring the log, take equal cuts off opposing sides, remove a board from the top, turn the log 180 degrees, and repeat, keeping the heart in the middle for your last cut. Another reason might be an incorrect tooth set, requiring you to resharpen and reset the blade. Misaligned bed rails can also cause this issue, so realign the bed.

    Why do blades dull quickly on my Wood-mizer Saw?
    • B
      Brian WileySep 6, 2025
      Blades on your Wood-mizer Saw might be dulling quickly due to several factors. Dirty logs can cause this, so clean or debark logs, especially on the entry side of the cut. Overheating during grinding can soften the teeth; grind just enough metal to restore sharpness and use water/coolant while sharpening. Poor sharpening techniques can also be a factor, so ensure the tips of the teeth are sharpened properly.
