Default Router cutter scorching wood

Hello
Why is the wood scorching when I attempt to cut across the grain and
I'm doing fine going with the grain?

Wood is pine.

Thank you.


Thanks all for replies.

I got a piece of advice,but havn't tried it yet but it sounds feasible?
the advice was to wet the the wood a bit(damp) and then route across the
grain and a light sanding when dry.
