Hi, Didn't you say the auger was new and that you used a blade sharpener on it? If so you may have screwed up the bevel of the cutting edge. Those blades come pre-sharpened so there's no need to hone the blades before use.......+ the sharpener must be placed and used in one specific direction per blade. SeaDog1
