My Girl! Could you even make frames!?
« on: May 16, 2012, 05:54 PM »
Hello friends!
 I have a table saw AP85E.
 Today I started cutting pine with 2 inches (5cm) and it seems incredible that began to go out a lot of smoke of burning.
 Is it that the blade is dull?!
 Why does this happen?
 I wonder opinion.
 Thank you!

usuall reasons are

build up of resin on the blade
fence not parallel to blade
too fine a blade

Alan is right, also if you are cutting in the length of the wood then you must use a blade with few teeth, around 24.

Thanks Alan, for your help.
 I believe also that the blade is blind.
 Soon I intend to replace the blade! Smiley

Is the blade on the right way? Its not the first time someones come in here and asked why their saw is smoking when doing a cut, only to realise they put the blade on the wrong way.
