Hello to all Felder owners,
It's been quite a while since I posted. I have owned my single phase K700 for a bit more than a year now and am not satisfied with the way the saw is cutting. I bought three blades, Felder Silver 315mm /48 tooth universal, Felder ripping blade, and a 12" 60 tooth Tenyru. I send these blades out for sharpening and clean them on a regular basis. I often work with cherry, walnut. maple, and sometimes some exotics. Much to my concern, I seem to struggle cutting these hardwoods. They cut but not with the ease I would expect with a Felder and using quality blades. I really realized that something is wrong when working on a job, I utilized someone elses older Delta contractors saw with a carbide rip blade. It worked effortlessly, cutting smoothly and precise. Maybe some of you fine folks could shed some light on this issue.
I have had other issues with this saw and have been working with Felder tech. The saw started to stop mid cut and it never braked properly. The Felder staff has been helpful and sent me some new circuitry. Hopefully, I have resolved these issues. The jury is out and time will tell. In the meantime, I want to remedy my cutting issues.
Thank you one and all and would appreciate any feedback.
