  If your Woodstock Grinder's wheel clogs and the workpiece shows burn marks, this could be due to several reasons. The wheel grade might be too hard, so try using a softer grade of wheel. Your feed rate could be too slow, so increase it. Also, the wheel might have been dressed incorrectly, or the workpiece material is incorrect; in that case, only grind ferrous materials.

  Danielle LarsonAug 2, 2025
  If you notice burned spots or cracks in your workpiece when using the Woodstock Grinder, it could be due to a few reasons. You might be using the wrong abrasive type for the work, so ensure you are using the correct type of grinding wheel. Your feed rate might be too slow, so try increasing it. The depth of cut could also be too great; reduce the depth of cut and take multiple light passes. Finally, the workpiece could be overheating, so grind in short durations and allow the workpiece to cool in between.

  If your Woodstock Grinder's cutting tool is ground unevenly from one side to the other, ensure the tool is properly re-clamped. It could also be that the table and wheel are not parallel; adjust the table position to make it parallel with the wheel. The wheel may also be dressed incorrectly or has impurities, or the wheel is damaged.

  If the wheel on your Woodstock Grinder dulls quickly and the grit falls off, it could be because the depth of cut is too great, so reduce it and take multiple light passes. Alternatively, the wheel grade might be too soft, so use a harder grade of wheel. The wheel may have been exposed to moisture, so store it away from moisture or replace it.
