  • Hello!
    In today’s video we will be performing routine maintenance on our WoodMizer EG 100 Edger. We will be checking over the edger, making sure nothing has come loose during operation and checking the chain to make sure it's in good working order.
    We will also go over a few of the issues that we have found regarding the maintenance of this machine and how we feel they could have been improved. It's difficult to grease and a few of the grease fittings require some machine disassembly to even reach (Which we will show you in this video.)
    To try to make this easier, we are going to try to make some modifications to the grease fittings to upgrade them so we can make maintenance go quicker and we are going to show you how we do it!
    We hope you enjoy this video!

    I am glad you had the will to have common sense win out in the end. I would send the Pres. a copy of your video with a note " Dear Mr. President attached video FYI" and see what is their response. Ray Stormont

    I think the machine is perfect the way it is. I think they should have put all the fittings in hard to reach places just for you! 😈

    I almost bought the same edger, woodmizer gave me location of one close by. Iwent to see it and the guy turn me off of it , for same reason your having . Plus he is heavy into cutting fresh pine and said the rubber in an outfeed belts were a bear to keep clean of pitch. I ended up buying a froze up edger he had w/o a motor. I just did a short using it. Only problemis i do no the brand. it works great , can edge 20 inch flitches

      Yes if we run pine the belt fills up with sawdust and pitch but we keep the air hose close by and clean it a couple times during the day .

    It's hard to see, but could some of those bearing blocks be unbolted and rotated 180 degrees or would that point the grease fitting in another hard location? Ooops, I guess I should have watched longer before commenting...great minds think alike 😁

      The 4 on top if roasted would get hit by the boards passing thru the edger .
