I have one 15-amp circuit serving my basement shop. Can I switch the breaker to 20 amps? TS is tripping when ripping 6/4 maple.


Maple has sticky sap, and it doesn't improve with heat. Try cleaning the saw blade, maybe
applying some wax, and if you have a rip blade, use that instead of a combination.
