I volunteer at a furniture bank where we build dressers and bedframes from donated materials. We use a couple of Sawstops, both are ICSs, one is 3hp, the other is 5hp. I'm not sure of the ages of the saws, my guess is the 5hp is 2-4 yrs old, the 3 hp is a little older. Lately, when we make our first cuts in the morning, the 5hp saw bogs down quickly, just cutting sheet goods. After 20 minutes or so, the saw will cut normally. The 3 hp does not do this. We put a new belt on the 5hp, but that had no impact. This saw did not do this in the warmer months, starting roughly about the beginning of October. Not sure this is a temperature related issue, but it's the only thing I can think of. The shop is kept at a lower temperature, maybe 50* during off hours.
Has anyone who owns a Sawstop experienced this behavior, and what have you done about it?
Thanks for your help!
