SECTION 1: SAFETY

For Your Own Safety, Read Instruction

Manual Before Operating this Machine

The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This

manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level of

importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember

that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper

accident prevention measures.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

WILL result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

COULD result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert

against unsafe practices.

This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about

proper operation of the machine.

8. MATERIAL. This machine is designed to

cut metal only. Not all metals react the

same when cutting. Know the material you

are working with before cutting.

1. BLADE CONDITION. Do not operate with

dull, cracked or badly worn blade. Dull

blades require more effort to use and are

difficult to control. Inspect blades for cracks

and missing teeth before each use.

9. CUTTING FLUID SAFETY. For saws

designed to use cutting fluid, always follow

manufacturer’s cutting-fluid safety instruc-

tions on use, storage, maintenance, and

disposal.

2. HAND PLACEMENT. Never position fin-

gers or thumbs in line with the cut. Serious

personal injury could occur.

3. GUARDS. Do not operate this bandsaw

10. LEAVING WORK AREA. Never leave a

machine running and unattended. Allow

the bandsaw to come to a complete stop

before you leave it unattended.

without blade guard in place.

4. BLADE REPLACEMENT. When replacing

blades, make sure teeth face toward the

workpiece. Make sure the blade is properly

tensioned after installing.

11. MAINTENANCE/SERVICES. All inspec-

tions, adjustments, and maintenance are

to be done with the power OFF and the

plug pulled from the outlet. Wait for all

moving parts to come to a complete stop.

5. WORKPIECE HANDLING. Always support

the workpiece with table, vise, or some

type of support fixture. Never hold the

workpiece with your hands during a cut.

12. HABITS – GOOD AND BAD – ARE

HARD TO BREAK. Develop good habits

in your shop and safety will become sec-

ond-nature to you.

6. BLADE SPEED. Blade should be running

at full speed and the feed rate set before

beginning a cut.

13. EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at

any time you are experiencing difficulties

performing the intended operation, stop

using the machine! Contact our Technical

Support Department at (570) 546-9663.

7. FEED RATE. Always determine feed rate

before the cut is started. Do not increase

Grounding

Extension Cords

In the event of an electrical short, grounding

reduces the risk of electric shock. The grounding

wire in the power cord must be properly connect-

ed to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise,

the outlet must be properly installed and ground-

ed. All electrical connections must be made in

accordance with local codes and ordinances.

110V Operation

We do not recommend the use of extension

cords. Instead, arrange the placement of your

equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate

the need for extension cords.

If you find it absolutely necessary to use an

extension cord at 110V with your machine:

•

Use at least a 16 gauge cord that does not

exceed 50 feet in length!

Electrocution or fire could

result if this machine is

not grounded correctly or

if your electrical configu-

ration does not comply

with local and state codes.

Ensure compliance by

checking with a qualified

electrician!

The extension cord must also contain a

ground wire and plug pin.

A qualified electrician MUST size cords over

50 feet long to prevent motor damage.

220V Operation

We do not recommend the use of extension

cords. Instead, arrange the placement of your

equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate

the need for extension cords.

If you find it absolutely necessary to use an

Clean Up

Site Considerations

The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy

oil to protect them from corrosion during ship-

ment. Remove this protective coating with a sol-

vent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as

Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly,

some parts may need to be removed. For opti-

mum performance from your machine, make

sure you clean all moving parts or sliding

contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid chlo-

rine-based solvents, such as acetone or brake

parts cleaner, as they may damage painted sur-

faces should they come in contact. Always follow

the manufacturer’s instructions when using any

type of cleaning product.

Floor Load

The weight and footprint size for your machine

is located in the machine data sheet. Most floors

are suitable for your machine. Some residential

floors may require additional reinforcement to

support both the machine and operator.

Working Clearances

Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of

material to be processed through each machine,

and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or

other machinery when establishing a location for

your new machine. See Figure 4 for the minimum

working clearances.

Gasoline and petroleum

products have low flash

points and could cause

an explosion or fire if

used to clean machinery.

DO NOT use gasoline or

petroleum products to

clean the machinery.

38"

15"

Many of the solvents

commonly used to clean

machinery can be toxic

when inhaled or ingest-

ed. Lack of ventilation

while using these sol-

vents could cause seri-

ous personal health risks

or fire. Take precautions

from this hazard by only

using cleaning solvents

in a well ventilated area.

Figure 4. Minimum G1010 working clearances.

Unsupervised children and

visitors inside your shop

could cause serious per-

sonal injury to themselves.

Lock all entrances to the

shop when you are away and

DO NOT allow unsupervised

children or visitors in your

shop at any time!

Blade Selection

Feed Rate

The Model G1010 uses 64¹⁄2" x ⁄2" bandsaw

blades.

The feed rate is controlled by the spring and

handle shown in Figure 29.

Selecting the right blade for the job depends on

a variety of factors, such as the type of mate-

rial being cut, hardness of the material, machine

capability, and operator technique.

To adjust the feed rate:

—Slower: Twist the handle clockwise to add

tension to the spring.

We suggest you do some research for your spe-

cific situation so you get the best blade to match

your needs.

—Faster: Twist the handle counterclockwise

to remove tension from the spring.

Grizzly is proud to offer a variety of selections

that can be found in the current catalog and in

ACCESSORIES on Page 28.

4. Loosen the lock nut in Figure 32 on the

opposite jaw so the jaw can float, and match

the angle of the workpiece.

Vise

The vise can hold material up to six inches wide

and be set to cut angles from 0 to 45 degrees.

5. Tighten the vise against the workpiece.

To adjust the angle on the vise:

1. Loosen the lock nut with a 12mm hex wrench

or socket as shown in Figure 30.

2. Use the scale as a guide to set your angle or

use a machinist square to square the blade

to the vise as shown in Figure 31.

3. Tighten the lock nut.

Figure 32. Vise jaw lock-nut.

Blade Guides

The blade guides should be as close to the

workpiece as possible. This will help ensure

straight cuts by keeping the blade from twisting

and drifting off the cut line.

Figure 30. Setting vise angle.

To adjust the blade guides:

1. Loosen the knobs shown in Figure 33

and slide the blade guides as close to

the workpiece as possible, then tighten the

knobs.

Operation Tips

The following tips will help you safely and effec-

tively operate your bandsaw and help you get the

maximum life out of your saw blades.

Tips for horizontal cutting:

•

Use the work stop to quickly and accurately

cut multiple pieces of stock to the same

length (see Figure 34).

•

Clamp the material firmly in the vise jaws to

ensure a straight cut through the material.

Figure 34. Using the work stop.

Let the blade reach full speed before engag-

ing the workpiece. Never start a cut with the

blade in contact with the workpiece (see

Figure 35).

•

Chips should be curled and silvery. If the

chips are thin and powder like, increase your

feed rate.

•

Chips that are burned, indicate a need to

reduce your blade speed.

Wait until the blade has completely stopped

before removing the workpiece from the vise,

and avoid touching the cut end—it could be

very hot!

Figure 35. Proper starting position.

Tips for vertical cutting:

•

Make sure that the vertical table assembly is

securely fastened to the bandsaw frame so it

will adequately support the workpiece.

Always keep your fingers away from the

blade and always hold the workpiece secure-

ly in your hand (Figure 36).

Adjust the blade guides as close as possible

to the workpiece to minimize side-to-side

blade movement.

that require a blade with a certain type or tooth

count.

To change the blade on the bandsaw:

1. UNPLUG THE BANDSAW!

2. Raise the head of the bandsaw to the vertical

position and remove the wheel access

cover.

Figure 47. Blade cutting direction.

6. When the blade is around both wheels,

adjust the position so the back of the blade is

against the shoulder of the wheels.

3. Loosen the tension knob and slip the blade

off of the wheels.

7. Tighten the tension knob in Figure 48 so the

blade will not slip on the wheels on start up.

8. Connect the bandsaw to the power source.

Blade Tension

Squaring the Blade

Proper blade tension is essential to long blade life,

straight cuts, and efficient cutting times.

It is always a good idea during the life of your saw

to check and adjust this setting. This adjustment

will improve your cutting results and extend the

life of your blade.

Two major signs that you do not have the blade

tension right are: 1) the blade stalls in the cut

and is slipping on the wheels, and 2) the blade

frequently breaks from being too loose.

To square the blade to the bed of the table:

1. UNPLUG THE BANDSAW!

To tension the blade on the bandsaw:

1. Make sure the blade is tracking properly.

2. UNPLUG THE BANDSAW!

2. Lower the head of the bandsaw all the way

until it contacts the horizontal stop.

3. Place a square on the table bed and against

the edge of the blade (Figure 52), and check

different points along the length of the table

between the blade guides.

3. Loosen and slide the blade guides as far

apart as they will go then tighten them down

again.

4. Loosen the hex bolt shown in Figure 52,

and rotate the seat until the blade is vertical

to the bed, then tighten the hex bolt.

4. Turn the tension knob in Figure 51 clockwise

to tighten the blade as tight as you can get.

5. Using moderate finger pressure, push against

the side of the blade. The blade should not

move more than 0.004".

Hex Bolt

6. Another option is to use a blade tensioning

gauge, like the one found in ACCESSORIES

on Page 28. If you use this option please

follow the instructions included with your

gauge.

Blade Guide

Bearings

2. Position the bandsaw in the vertical position.

The blade guide bearings must be properly

adjusted. One bearing on each assembly has

an eccentric bushing that allows the distance

between bearings to be adjusted. The bearings

are secured in place by a hex nut and lock wash-

er shown in Figure 53.

3. Loosen the hex nut that secures the bearing

to the eccentric bushing.

4. Using a 13mm open-end wrench, adjust the

eccentric bushing position to achieve the

desired clearance. The bearing and blade

should have a clearance of 0.001".

5. Tighten the nut to lock the bearing in posi-

tion.

Eccentric Bushing

6. Adjust the other eccentric blade guide bear-

ing in the same manner. The backing bear-

ing should have a gap between 0.002-0.003"

from the back of the blade.
