Weld Breakage

Problem

Solution 

Poor blade weld Re-weld blade
Blade is over-tensioned Check tension and adjust as needed.  If the blade breaks in the heat affected zone (the area next to the weld)  the tension could be too high.
Tension valve wear on a machine with hydraulic tensioning Check the tension valve for a slow leak, which will increase pressure
