Chain jitter/whipping

So, probably too early in my learning curve to ask, but anybody else seen the chain get into a “resonance” jitter? I had mine moving up and down pretty regularly in one part of the cut.

Sled weight is low right now, and that may be it, but was wondering if it was just me…

I’m guessing you are spot on about the weight being the important factor. The machine is tuned to expect the full sled weight. Think picking up a soda can that you expect to be full which is actually empty. You can tweak the way the machine responds by tuning the PID controller under advanced settings, but it would be much easier to up the weight on the sled :slight_smile:
