hi there, new to the site.
i have a walkerized 394 husky with a 24" bar, ripping chain, granberg mill. i am having problems milling and this surprises me. what is happening is that the saw tends to dive downward. if i am milling on rails, it does not cause a huge problem, as the rails bow and let it keep going. but when i try to mill on a flat surface left after slabbing, the bar dives quickly to where it is bent and binding up and i can no longer mill forward. i cannot figure out how this could happen, have checked and rechecked dozens of times, just thought someone may know what is going on?
thanks, matt
ps it is ponderosa pine i am milling, nothing too hard.
