The Gunk L716 Industrial Chain Lubricant with Moly 15% ordered on Amazon was sent to me by McLendon Hardware.
I ran a 3/4 x 11 x 88 with no problem. Position the remote rollers to a hight to where the board is 1/8 above the C/W in-feed and out feed rollers. Your C/W rollers should slightly below the belt. ...
When I got my machine it was 12 deg and I un-boxed it and let it warm up over night. When I went to use the CW the head was hard to raise and lower. I lubed the shafts and cranked it up and down...
It looks like a bevel gear has slipped. Not good to crank it amy more. There are holes in the threded rod that moves that up and down. You may be able to turn that rod with an allen wrench and see...
My head would not come down when I got mine. Lube the guide shafts and screw and keep raising and lowering and it will free up. Takes a while don't force it.
It's running well. Another lesson I won't forget
Thanks

Well after 11 hr. of excellent performance the board sensor reads 7" short on a 30" oak and pine board. I went through all the trouble shooter checks and all I could find in the form. Roller work...

All of you nor have got me in trouble and out of trouble all in one week. Learned nor to use cut path on a sled. And how to change my roller pressure from 20# to 75#.

[QUOTE=liquidguitars;45999]Big_Bob and Ken,
You can just load your sled's front "4" under the out feed roller first, and use "place on end 03" and no tape is needed!

In order for that cut to move the sled had to slip. The project board did not move. My sled is Formica covered. Maybe I should use MDF.

That clears it up. One of the sleds I made is from that PDF file that has 21/4 rails. Now I know when to use that one.
Now I can use up some of my scrap.
Thanks for the help.
Bob
