“Like the rollers way better than the original ceramic guides. Lots of adjustable bolts. No directions stating the need to add lock tight to keep bolts from falling out and getting lost in the sawdust, hint hint. Notice there is some build up of sawdust, pitch for once the cut occurs, some sawdust on top of the blade goes through the roller which in turns presses that material onto the blade. There is some build up on top of the blade.
Still learning these rollers and still figuring out the maintenance needs.
Better cuts that seem to be more consistent.
Overall an improvement to any mill.”
“I read a number of reviews on this and decided to buy it. First, there is not enough adjustment to put down pressure on the blade on the moveable side. I have seen some shim the top slide to get that down pressure but I have not tried that yet and it is highly involved. Second I had a blade jump and it actually bent the bracket on the fixed side. The bracket is currently an L shape and should have some gussets to make it ridgid. I bent it back and will have to fix properly at another time. This thing is just not good enough for the price.”
“Doesn’t apply any down pressure on blade at all very poor design cheap plastic parts and installation instructions that came with it are for hd38 mill very disappointed with product”
“installation was easy but the only issue being is the operator side assembley-----sloted portion of the billet was not enough to make the downward adjustment that was within the instructions and in the illistrations for the adjustments I am assuming that those photos were from the HD38 as there is no micro downward adjustment means provided .
I had to make the slots longer to provide the recommended travel of 3/16" as per instructions (should not have to do that)”
