Hi Guys
- when i am crosscutting 1" thick oak planks - maybe 7 or 8 inches wide, when i get nearly through the plank, maybe only the last quarter of an inch, the saw nearly always stalls and won't go any further, usually adding a bit of kickback in for effect. The saw is new and has a new blade which is fine. Despite my best efforts i cannot see what is causing the stall. The riving knife looks fine and level with the blade and there is nothing obvious wrong. Is there some special technique to this?
Cheers,
Sean
