Default Solar Guy

You guys are going to love this. I bought the Delta 305 back 8-10 years
ago at Crappy Tire.
I purchased it to rerun My square D white pine 10"x6" logs, some are 3 ft
and some are 20 ft.
Yes I know I need a industrial planner but on My budget it isn't happening.
Now the dilemma, It feeds Ok but fails to pull the log through the
machine.
I have to assist it which becomes very labour intensive.
Is there any way to have the rollers modified with a substance to grab the
log better?
Even with multiple light passes I still have to push.
It is not laboring the cutter head but certainly doesn't pull these logs
through.
I don't care @ $199. cost if I burn this thing out, as long as it does all
My logs board feet
with several knives I will still be ahead of the game.
Any suggestions or assistance would be appreciated.
