Auger trouble

[BUCKNAKED]

I have an older Strike Master 2hp auger. It runs like a champ and the blade is brand new (and on correctly) but doesn't cut unless I'm sitting on the **** thing. Is there a specific pitch to the blade that needs to be corrected? Any help would be appreciated.

I would say a dull blade, but you have new blades or re-sharpened blades? I have dull blades on my lazer (same problem as you have) and I'm getting new blades.
Install the blades correctly?
Is there a spacer between the blade and the auger itself? I've seen some models that require a thin metal spacer(s).
