Power feed problem with LT35

The last job I did 2 days ago I started having power feed problems on a big log/wide cant. The mill was slightly angled and I was cutting a little uphill till I finished the log and re-leveled it. The cuts were 20-22 inches wide. I had to slow to a crawl with new/resharpened blades and it would still trip off. After I finished the cant, re-leveled the mill and got a normal sized log (think 12" or less width of cut) it did much better but would still trip once in a while then it got to just stopping but not tripping the breaker. I could back up a few inches and re-start. It did not do it at the same spot like a bad spot on the chain or feed rail somewhere. Just at dark I loaded a little 12-13 inch poplar log and could not get the mill to cut more than a few inches at a time so I quit thinking I had a bad bearing.Read More
