Thanks Bob - I'll try them today - I hate the idea of having to ship a new

when testing this. And it acts the same way with the FF cutter installed as
well.

If you can't determine (and easily fix) the problem by cleanup of the
arbor/mount/etc., I'd suggest it probably would be quicker to simply
return it to Amazon as Bob suggests rather than go w/ the service
center.

PITA, but I'd take may chances on a replacement since you'll have
shipping charges either way...
