if your mora wont cut a hole with new blades, and the reason I dont care for this style auger.
people including my self tap the auger against the ice lightly to knock off the ice build up. When you do that you bend the soft metal frame the blades are mounted to. hence the auger will never ever cut right again.
a sign that this has been done to your auger or it has been droped on its blade is when you attempt to start your hole it wants to skip across or bobbel around on the ice.
if this is what is happening, you can put a peice of shim stock on the cutting side of the bolts when placeing the blades on. It dose help a little, but it will never cut like new again.
