Additional Safety Instructions For Table Saws  
1. THRU-SAWING: Use blade guard, splitter,  
and anti-kickback fingers on all thru-saw-  
ing operations. See Page 12 for the defin-  
ition of thru-sawing.  
8. CROSSCUTTING: Move the rip fence out  
of the way when crosscutting.  
9. MITER GAUGE/RIP FENCE: Never use  
the miter gauge and rip fence at the same  
time.  
2. KICKBACK: Use anti-kickback devices  
during ALL cutting operations. If you do not  
have a complete understanding of how  
kickback occurs, or how to prevent it, Do  
not operate this table saw. See Page 12  
for the definition of kickback.  
10. STALLED BLADE: Never attempt to free a  
stalled saw blade without first turning the  
saw off.  
11. CUTOFF TABLES: Use adequate support  
to the rear and sides of the saw table for  
wide or long workpieces.  
3. DANGEROUS REACHING: Do not reach  
behind or over the saw blade with either  
hand while the saw is running.  
12. HAND SAFETY: Avoid awkward cutting  
operations and hand positions where a  
sudden slip could cause your hand to move  
into the saw blade.  
4. PUSHSTICK: Use a push stick when rip-  
ping narrow stock.  
5. FREE-HAND CUTTING: The fence or the  
miter gauge must support the workpiece  
during all cutting operations.  
13. SAW BLADE: Lower the saw blade below  
the table when not in use.  
6. BODY POSITION WHEN CUTTING: Do  
not stand or have any part of your body in-  
line with the path of the saw blade.  
14. DAMAGED SAW BLADE: Never use a  
damaged saw blade or one that has been  
dropped.  
7. WORKPIECE CONTROL: Hold the work-  
piece firmly against the miter gauge or  
fence and hold the workpiece firmly  
against the table.  
15. DADO CUTTING: There is a high degree  
of risk involved with any dado operation.  
See Page 12 for the definition of dado.  
Unfamiliarity with this manual could result  
in serious personal injury. Become familiar  
with the contents of this manual, including  
all the safety warnings.  
No list of safety guidelines can be com-  
plete. Operating this machinery may  
require additional safety precautions spe-  
cific to your shop environment. Failure to

Avoiding Kickback  
Safety Accessories  
Failure to understand how and why kick-  
back occurs could cause serious person-  
al injury. DO NOT operate this table saw if  
you do not have a clear understanding of  
kickback, and how it occurs.  
Not using safety accessories could cause  
serious personal injury. Learn how to cor-  
rectly use each safety accessory.  
Push Sticks  
The use of push sticks, particularly when cutting  
small or narrow workpieces, provides a double  
benefit for saw operators. The push stick pro-  
vides added leverage, enabling the operator to  
keep the workpiece firmly supported against the  
fence and table. At the same time, the push stick  
keeps the operator’s hand safely away from the  
rotation of the saw blade as shown in Figure 1.  
See the template on Page 53 of the manual for  
construction details, or purchase one from the  
Grizzly catalog or website.  
Statistics prove that most common accidents  
among table saw users can be linked to kick-  
back.  
Kickback is typically defined as the high-speed  
expulsion of stock from the table saw toward its  
operator.  
In addition to the danger of the operator or oth-  
ers in the area being struck by the flying stock, it  
is often the case that the operator’s hands are  
forced into the blade during the kickback.  
The following can help minimize kickbacks:  
• Use your blade guard and splitter.  
• Never for any reason place your hand behind  
the blade. Should kickback occur, your hand  
will be pulled into the blade.  
• Inspect splitter for alignment between it and  
your blade.  
• Never use the fence as a guide for crosscut-  
ting.  
• Never attempt freehand cuts.  
• Use a push stick or featherboard to maintain  
control of your workpiece.  
• Feed cuts through to completion.  
• Stand to the side when ripping.  
• Ensure your fence and miter slot are parallel to  
the blade.  
Figure 1. Push Stick.  
If you do not have a clear understanding of kick-  
back and how it occurs, do not operate this table  
saw.

Zero Clearance Table Inserts  
Push Paddles  
Ideal for use when ripping thin strips or making  
bevel cuts, these prevent tearout and jammed  
blades by supporting material close to the blade.  
Push paddles provide added leverage and sup-  
port when ripping or crosscutting wide work-  
pieces as shown in Figure 3. We offer a number  
of push paddles in the Grizzly catalog.  
Use the standard table insert as a template when  
creating additional inserts from wood or plywood.  
Slots can be custom cut for specific blade angles  
by raising the running blade into an uncut insert  
at the angle you desire. Be sure to make an addi-  
tional slot for the blade splitter.  
We also carry a wide selection of table inserts  
(Figure 2) in the Grizzly catalog or website. Be  
sure to hold the insert firmly in place with a piece  
of wood when creating slots. Never hold the table  
insert with your hand while cutting new slots.  
Figure 3. Push Paddles.  
Featherboards  
Easily made from scrap stock, featherboards pro-  
vide an added degree of protection against kick-  
back as shown in Figure 4. To make a feather-  
board, cut a 30-40° angle at one end of the board  
and make a number of end cuts at approximately  
1
4" apart and 2" to 3" deep. We also offer a num-  
ber of featherboards in the Grizzly catalog.

SECTION 3: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS  
Model G1023S110 Only:  
110V Operation  
220V Operation  
The Model G1023S110 motor is prewired to oper-  
ate at 110V. When operating at 110V, use a  
NEMA-style 5-30 plug and outlet. See Figure 5.  
Check the electrical codes in your area for  
specifics on wiring requirements.  
The motor supplied with the Model G1023S110  
can be operated at either 110V or 220V. The  
motor comes prewired for 110V. Refer to the  
wiring diagram insert supplied with this manual for  
information about converting to operate at 220V.  
Under normal 110V use, the motor draws approx-  
imately 24 amps. Use a 30 amp circuit breaker or  
a 30 amp slow-blow fuse. The circuit you use  
should be dedicated, (i.e., the Model G1023S110  
should provide the only draw from that circuit). If  
frequent circuit failures occur when using this  
machine, contact our Service Department or your  
local electrical contractor.  
If converting to operate at 220V, a suitable 220V  
plug and magnetic switch must be wired in. When  
operating at 220V, use a NEMA-style 6-15 plug  
and outlet. See Figure 6. Check the electrical  
codes in your area for specifics on wiring require-  
ments. You will also need to replace the existing  
110V switch with a magnetic 220V switch such as  
the Grizzly Model G4572.  
Because of the high amperage draw of this  
machine when wired for 110V, standard house-  
hold circuit wiring may not be of a large enough  
gauge. A qualified electrician must install a new  
circuit with wires capable of handling a 30 amper-  
age draw. Do not attempt to modify an existing cir-  
cuit by replacing the circuit breaker with one rated  
for a higher amperage.  
Under normal use, the motor draws approximate-  
ly 12 amps at 220V. Use a 15 amp circuit break-  
er for 220V operation This should be satisfactory  
for normal use while providing enough protection  
against circuit damage caused by power surges.  
Always check to see if your current wires are  
capable of handling a 15 amp load. If you are  
unsure, consult the advice of a qualified electri-  
cian. Do not attempt to modify an existing circuit  
by replacing the circuit breaker with one rated for  
a higher amperage.

Model G1023S Only:  
220V Operation  
The Model G1023S motor is wired to operate at  
220V. When operating at 220V, use a NEMA-  
style L6-20 plug and outlet. See Figure 7. Check  
the electrical codes in your area for specifics on  
wiring requirements.  
Under normal 220V use, the motor draws approx-  
imately 18 amps. Use a 20 amp circuit breaker or  
a 20 amp slow-blow fuse. The circuit you use  
should be dedicated, (i.e., the Model G1023S  
should provide the only draw from that circuit). If  
frequent circuit failures occur when using this  
machine, contact our Service Department or your  
local electrical contractor.  
Figure 7. NEMA L6-20 220V plug and outlet  
Because of the high amperage draw of this  
machine, standard household circuit wiring may  
not be of a large enough gauge. A qualified elec-  
trician must install a new circuit with wires capa-  
ble of handling a 18 amperage draw. Do not  
attempt to modify an existing circuit by replacing  
the circuit breaker with one rated for a higher  
amperage.

Grounding  
Extension Cord  
Should it be necessary to use an extension make  
sure the cord is rated Hard Service (grade S) or  
better. Refer to the chart in Section 1: Safety  
Instructions to determine the minimum gauge for  
the extension cord. The extension cord must also  
contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair  
or replace extension cords when they become  
worn or damaged.  
Electrocution or a fire  
can result if the band-  
saw is not grounded cor-  
rectly. Make sure all  
electrical circuits are  
grounded. Do not use  
the machine if it is not  
grounded.  
NOTICE  
The wire on the power cord with green or  
green and yellow striped insulation is the  
grounding conductor.  
No single list of electrical guidelines can  
be comprehensive for all shop environ-  
ments. Operating this machinery may  
require additional electrical upgrades spe-  
cific to your machine and shop environ-  
ment. It is your responsibility to make sure  
your electrical systems comply with all  
local electrical codes and ordinances.  
In the event of an electrical short, grounding pro-  
vides electric current a path of least resistance to  
reduce the risk of electrical shock to the operator.  
Ground the power cord and this machine in accor-  
dance with all local codes and ordinances.  
Operating this machine when it is not properly  
grounded can result in electric shock or electro-  
cution.

Clean Up  
Site Considerations  
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy  
oil to protect them from corrosion during ship-  
ment. Remove this waxy oil with a solvent clean-  
er or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s  
G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly, some  
parts may need to be removed. The machine  
will operate best when the waxy oil is  
removed from all moving and sliding parts.  
Chlorine-based cleaners and solvents will dam-  
age the painted surfaces of the machine. Follow  
the manufacturer’s instructions when using any  
type of cleaning product.  
Floor Load  
The Model G1023S Series Table Saws are a  
heavy load with a medium footprint. Most com-  
mercial or home shop floors should be sufficient  
to carry the weight of the machine. Reinforce the  
floor if you question its ability to support the  
weight.  
Working Clearance  
Working clearances can be thought of as the dis-  
tances between machines and obstacles that  
allow safe operation of every machine without lim-  
itation. Consider existing and anticipated machine  
needs, size of material to be processed through  
each machine, and space for auxiliary stands or  
work tables. Also, consider the relative position of  
each machine to one another for efficient materi-  
al handling. Be sure to allow yourself sufficient  
room to safely run your machines in any foresee-  
able operation and keep dust collection hoses off  
the floor and out of the way.  
Gasoline or petroleum  
products used to clean  
the machinery could  
explode causing serious  
personal injury. DO NOT  
use gasoline or petrole-  
um products to clean the  
machinery.  
Lighting  
Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate  
shadows and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits  
should be dedicated or large enough to handle  
combined motor amp loads. Be sure to follow  
local electrical codes for proper installation of new  
lighting or circuits.  
Smoking near solvents  
could ignite an explosion  
or fire causing serious  
injury. DO NOT smoke  
while using solvents.  
Unsupervised  
children  
and visitors entering a  
shop could receive seri-  
Lack of ventilation while  
using solvents could  
cause serious personal  
health risks, fire, or  
environmental hazards.  
Always work in a well  
ventilated areas to pre-  
vent the accumulation  
of dangerous fumes.  
Supply the work area  
with a constant supply  
of fresh air using a fan.  
ous  
personal  
injury.  
Ensure child and visitors  
safety by keeping all  
entrances to the shop  
locked at all times. DO  
NOT allow unsupervised  
children or visitors in the  
shop at any time.

(3) ⁄8"-16 x 114" Hex Bolts and 8" Flat  
Washers provided. Adjust the wing reason-  
ably flush with the table and do not tighten  
the bolts completely at this time.  
Wear safety glasses dur-  
ing the entire assembly  
process. Failure to com-  
ply may result in serious  
personal injury.  
3. Align the top of the wings flush with the table  
top directly above the front bolts and flush  
with the front edge of the table. Tighten the  
front bolts.  
Some metal parts may  
have sharp edges on  
them after they are  
formed. Please examine  
the edges of all metal  
parts before handling  
them. Failure to do so  
could result in injury.  
4. Raise or lower the rear of the extension  
wings until the middle of the wings are flush  
with the table top. Tighten the middle bolts.  
5. Raise or lower the rear of the wings until the  
wings and table are flush. Tighten the rear  
bolts.  
6. Re-check the flushness of the wings against  
the table above each bolt. Re-adjust if nec-  
essary.  
TOOLS REQUIRED: You will need a high quality  
square, a long straightedge, 10mm, 12mm,  
14mm open end wrenches and a 3mm Allen®  
wrench.

7. Check the alignment of the table and both  
wings with a straightedge. The straightedge  
should run flat across both wings and the  
table top. If the straightedge contacts both  
wings and the table evenly, you are finished  
with this section. If the straightedge does not  
contact them evenly, continue to Step 9.  
Fence & Rails  
Your Model G1023S Series comes with a Shop  
Fox® Brand Fence & Rails. Refer to the manual  
included in the fence box for assembly instruc-  
tions.  
8. If the extension wings tilt up or down at the  
outside edges, remove the wings and shim  
them with masking tape as shown in Figure  
10.  
A) If a wing tilts down, stick layers of mask-  
ing tape along the bottom edge of the  
table and retighten.  
Switch  
The switch comes prewired to the motor and can  
be easily mounted to the rail.  
B) If a wing tilts up, stick layers of masking  
tape along the top edge of the wing and  
retighten. Allow the tape to extend above  
table surface and trim the extended tape  
with a sharp knife after final assembly.  
To mount the switch:  
1. Line the switch bracket holes up with the  
holes on the underside of the rail.  
9. Re-check the alignment of the table and both  
wings with a straightedge and re-adjust if  
necessary.  
2. Secure the switch and bracket to the under-  
side of the rail using the (2) 14"-20 x 38"Phillip  
Head Screws and 14" Lock Washers.  
3. Disconnect the machine from the power  
source!

guard is properly aligned, please skip ahead  
to Step 13; otherwise, continue with the next  
step.  
7. If the splitter is positioned to the left of the  
blade, alignment cannot be achieved by  
washer placement. Adjustment of the front  
support bracket is required. See Figure 20  
for adjustment details. Loosen the 2 adjust-  
ment screws and move left or right.  
Arbor Bracket  
8. If this adjustment does not allow enough  
movement of the splitter, remove the table  
and wings, and set them to one side. Be sure  
to note the position of the table shims.  
Replace them to their original position before  
re-attaching the table.  
Figure 22. Arbor bracket adjustment locations.  
11. Moving the arbor bracket moves the V-belts  
and pulleys out of alignment, so adjustment  
of the motor pulley is required. Simply loosen  
the setscrew in the middle groove of the pul-  
ley, and slowly slide the pulley toward the  
end of the motor shaft. Once the V-belts are  
back in alignment, tighten the setscrew  
securely.  
The table and wings  
represent a very heavy  
load. DO NOT over-  
exert yourself while lift-  
ing or moving the table  
and wings – get assis-  
tance.  
12. Recheck the guard alignment to the blade  
and to the table top. Adjust as necessary and  
tighten down all the bolts before use. If the  
blade guard is properly aligned, re-attach the  
table, making sure there is adequate blade  
clearance through all blade adjustments.  
The arbor bracket and motor pulley now need  
to be adjusted:  
13. Adjust the blade to 45°. Raise and lower it  
through the full range. Re-adjust the blade to  
90°, then raise and lower it through the full  
range. There should be no contact between  
the blade, the base, the table insert, or any  
other part of the saw. If there is contact,  
repeat Steps 8-12.  
9. Loosen the adjustment bolt shown in Figure  
22, and slowly slide the arbor bracket  
towards the end of the shaft. Only move the  
arbor bracket a distance equal to the amount  
of misalignment between the blade and the  
splitter, or a little more. You can always  
adjust the splitter back to the left with wash-  
ers.  
10. Tighten the adjustment bolt securely.

Blade Selection  
Figure 25. Crosscutting blade.  
Combination Blade: Used for cutting with and  
across the grain. A compromise between a rip  
blade and a cross-cut blade, a 10" combination  
blade will typically have between 40-50 teeth  
(Figure 26), an alternate top bevel and flat or  
alternate top bevel (Figure 29) and raker tooth  
profile. The teeth are arranged in groups of five.  
The gullets are small and shallow within the  
groups of five teeth, similar to a cross-cut blade;  
then large and deep between the groups, like a  
ripping blade.  
Choosing the correct blade for the job is essential  
for the safe and efficient use of your table saw.  
Rip Blade: Used for cutting with the grain. 10" rip  
blades have between 20-40 teeth (Figure 24),  
flat-top ground tooth profile (Figure 29) and large  
gullets to allow for large chip removal.  
Figure 24. Ripping blade.  
Cross-cut Blade: Used for cutting across the  
grain. 10" cross-cut blades have between 60-80  
teeth (Figure 25), alternate top bevel or steep  
alternate top bevel tooth profiles (Figure 29),  
small hook angle and a shallow gullet.  
Figure 26. Combination blade.

Plywood Blade: Used for cutting plywood or  
veneers. 10" plywood blades have 40-80 teeth  
(Figure 27), a steep alternate top bevel tooth pro-  
file (Figure 29) and very shallow gullet.  
Figure 28. Optional dado blade.  
• Wobble Dado Blade—Also a dedicated dado  
blade, a wobble blade usually consists of a sin-  
gle blade that is tilted on the arbor shaft while it  
is spinning. The channel is cut in the face of the  
workpiece as the blade passes through its pre-  
adjusted width of travel. Wobble blades are an  
inexpensive option when visibly pleasing chan-  
nels are not a concern.  
Figure 27. Plywood blade.  
Thin-kerf: Designed for saws with smaller  
motors and for reducing material waste, thin-kerf  
blades are thinner than standard blades.  
Performance and accuracy can be maintained by  
the use of blade stabilizers.  
Moulding Heads: A moulding head is a cutter-  
head that attaches to the arbor and holds individ-  
ual moulding knives. They should only be used by  
professional woodworkers with training beyond  
the scope of this manual.  
This section on blade selection is by no means  
comprehensive. Always follow the saw blade  
manufacturer's recommendations to ensure safe  
and efficient operation of your table saw.  
Some blade guards/splitters are thicker  
than thin-kerf blades. DO NOT use the thin-  
kerf blade if this is the case or serious per-  
sonal injury could result.  
Dado Blades: There are two types of dado  
blades: stacked and wobble.  
• Stacked Dado Blade—These dedicated dado  
cutting blades consist of a set of up to 8 indi-  
vidual blades. Multiple cutters are "stacked"  
between two outside blades. The width of the  
dado is determined by the combination of cut-  
ters that are “stacked” together. The dado is cut  
in a single pass leaving a smooth and square  
channel in the face of the workpiece as shown  
on Page 31. Stacked dado blades are the most  
expensive option but are worth considering if  
your projects require a lot of visible dado cuts.  
A typical stacked dado blade is shown in  
Figure 28.

Ripping  
Stand to the left of the blade line-of-cut  
when ripping a board. Serious personal  
injury could occur if kickback results.  
A rip cut is a cut with the grain direction of the  
workpiece. Ripping man-made wood products  
like plywood is performed by cutting parallel to  
the longest side.  
8. Using a push stick, feed the workpiece  
through the saw blade as shown in Figure  
31, until the workpiece is completely past the  
saw blade. When a small width is to be  
ripped and a push stick cannot be safely put  
between the blade and rip fence, rip a larger  
piece to obtain the desired piece.  
Keep the blade guard in  
the down position at all  
times. Failure to do this  
could result in serious  
personal injury or death.  
To make a rip cut:  
1. Set the fence to the desired width of cut on  
the fence rail scale.  
2. Adjust the blade height so the highest saw  
1
tooth protrudes approximately 4" above the  
workpiece.  
3. Joint one long edge of the workpiece on a  
jointer.  
4. Set up any safety devices such as feather-  
boards or other anti-kickback devices.  
Figure 31. Typical ripping operation.  
5. With the saw disconnected from the  
power source, rotate the blade to make  
sure it does not come into contact with any of  
the safety devices.  
Turn off the saw and allow the blade to  
come to a complete stop before removing  
the cut-off piece. Failure to follow this warn-  
ing could result in serious personal injury  
6. Plug the saw into the power source, and turn  
on the saw and allow it to come to full speed.  
7. The jointed edge of the workpiece must be  
slide against the fence during the cutting  
operation.

Dado Cutting  
Commonly used in furniture joinery, a dado is a  
straight channel cut in the face of the workpiece.  
Dadoes can be cut using either a dado blade  
(Figure 28) or a standard saw blade.  
Dado operations present very real hazards  
requiring proper procedures to avoid seri-  
ous injury. The chance of kickback is  
always greater when dado blades are used  
so extra care must be taken. Any movement  
of the stock away from the fence will cause  
kickback. Be certain that stock is flat and  
straight. Failure to follow these warnings  
could result in serious personal injury.  
Figure 32. Single-blade dado cut.  
Never allow hands or arms to be above or  
behind the saw blade. Should kickback  
occur, the hands and arms could be pulled  
into the saw blade causing serious person-  
al injury.  
To use a stacked or wobble dado blade:  
1. Disconnect the machine from the power  
source!  
2. Remove the table insert, splitter guard, and  
regular saw blade.  
Always use push sticks, featherboards,  
push paddles and other safety accessories  
whenever possible to increase safety and  
control during operations which require the  
blade guard and splitter to be removed from  
the saw. Failure to follow this warning could  
result in serious personal injury.  
3. Attach and adjust the dado blade system as  
recommended in the dado blade manufac-  
turer’s instructions.  
4. Install the dado table insert.  
5. Raise the dado blade up to the desired depth  
of cut (depth of dado channel desired).  
7. Reconnect the saw to the power source.  
8. With one finger ready to push the OFF but-  
ton, turn the saw on. The blade should run  
smooth with no vibrations or wobbling.  
Never perform a through cut operation with  
a dado blade. A dado blade was designed to  
make non-through cuts only. Failure to fol-  
low this warning could result in serious per-  
sonal injury.  
9. When the blade has reached full speed, per-  
form a test cut with a scrap piece of wood.  
6. If dadoing along the long length of your work-  
piece, adjust the distance between the fence  
and the inside edge of the blade to suit your  
needs as shown in Figure 32.

10. If the cut is satisfactory, repeat with your fin-  
ish stock.  
Never allow hands or arms to be above or  
behind the saw blade. Should kickback  
occur, the hands and arms could be pulled  
into the saw blade causing serious person-  
al injury.  
ALWAYS replace the blade guard after  
dadoing is complete. Failure to follow this  
warning could result in serious personal  
injury.  
Using a standard saw blade:  
Always use push sticks, featherboards,  
push paddles and other safety accessories  
whenever possible to increase safety and  
control during operations which require the  
blade guard and splitter to be removed from  
the saw. Failure to follow this warning could  
result in serious personal injury.  
1. Clearly mark the width of the dado cut on  
your workpiece. Include marks on the edge  
of your workpiece so you can clearly identify  
your intended cut while the material is laying  
flat on the saw table.  
2. Raise the blade up to the desired depth of  
cut (depth of dado channel desired).  
4. Turn on the saw and allow the blade to reach  
full speed.  
3. If dadoing along the long length of your work-  
piece, adjust the fence so the blade is  
aligned with the inside of your dado channel  
as shown in Figure 33.  
5. Perform a test cut on a scrap piece of wood.  
Determine if the depth of cut is correct.  
6. If the cut is satisfactory, repeat with your fin-  
ish stock.  
Always turn the saw off and wait until the  
blade has come to a complete stop before  
adjusting the fence. Failure to follow this  
warning could result in serious personal  
injury.

7. Re-adjust the fence so the blade is aligned  
with the other edge of the intended dado  
channel. Be sure to keep the cuts within your  
marks; otherwise, the dado will be too big.  
Rabbet Cutting  
Commonly used in furniture joinery, a rabbet is a  
straight groove cut in the edge of the workpiece.  
Rabbets are best cut using a standard saw blade.  
8. Continue making cuts toward the center of  
the dado with your subsequent cuts until the  
dado is complete.  
Rabbet operations present very real haz-  
ards requiring proper procedures to avoid  
serious injury. Any movement of the stock  
away from the fence will cause kickback. Be  
certain that stock is flat and straight. Failure  
to follow these warnings could result in  
serious personal injury.  
Always replace the blade guard after dado-  
ing is complete. Failure to follow this warn-  
ing could result in serious personal injury.  
Cutting rabbets with the standard blade:  
Cutting rabbets with a standard saw blade DOES  
NOT require the use of a sacrificial fence.  
1. Clearly mark the width of the rabbet cut on  
your workpiece. Include marks on the edge  
of your workpiece so you can clearly identify  
your intended cut while the material is laying  
flat on the saw table.  
2. Raise the blade up to the desired depth of  
cut (depth of rabbet channel desired).  
3. If the rabbet runs the length of the material,  
adjust the fence so the blade is aligned with  
the inside of your rabbet channel as shown  
in Figure 34.

Lubrication  
Table  
The sealed ball bearings in the motor and  
throughout the Model G1023S Series require no  
maintenance during their lifetime. When they do  
wear out, replacements can be obtained through  
the Grizzly Parts Department.  
The table is made from cast iron. If preventative  
measures are not taken, the table surface will rust.  
Regularly wipe sawdust from the table to prevent  
rust causing moisture from becoming trapped  
against the table. Regular applications of products  
like SLIPIT® will prevent rust as the saw is used on  
a daily basis. For long term storage, use products  
such as Boeshield T-9®. Both of these products  
are available in the Grizzly catalog.  
Lubricate the areas indicated below every 12  
months:  
BLADE ANGLING TRUNNION—The front and  
back trunnions each have a semi-circle groove  
that needs to be lubricated with an automotive  
wheel bearing grease.  
BLADE HEIGHT TRUNNION—The blade height  
trunnion pivots on a steel rod. This should be  
lubricated with 6 or 7 drops of light machine oil.  
V-Belt  
To ensure optimum power transmission from the  
motor to the blade, the V-belts must be in good  
condition and operate under the proper tension.  
When replacing V-belts, replace all three at the  
same time—even if they do not all appear worn.  
WORM GEARS These should be lubricated  
with an automotive wheel bearing grease.  
Belt tension should be checked at least every 3  
months; more often if using the table saw inten-  
sively.  
The V-belts are accessed through the cavity on  
the right side of the saw. They link the arbor and  
motor pulleys.  
To check V-belt tension:  
1. Disconnect the machine from the power  
source!  
2. With moderate pressure, push the center of  
each V-belt.  
3. Note the amount of deflection. Deflection  
1
should be approximately 2", similar to  
Figure 36.

To replace the V-belts:  
!
1. Disconnect the machine from the power  
source!  
2. Remove the blade.  
3. Adjust the arbor so it is up all the way and in  
the 90° position.  
4. Place a board under the motor and loosen  
the motor mount bolt. Slowly lower the arbor  
until the motor rests on the board, allowing  
the belts to be loose on the pulleys.

SECTION 8: SERVICE ADJUSTMENTS  
45˚ & 90˚ Stops  
Disconnect power to the  
machine when perform-  
ing any maintenance,  
assembly or adjust-  
ments. Failure to do this  
may result in serious  
personal injury.  
1. Set your blade angle at zero as shown on the  
angle indicator on the front of the saw and  
raise the blade several inches above the  
table.  
!
2. Place a machinist’s square flat on the table  
and slide it alongside the blade. The square  
should contact the blade evenly from bottom  
to top. Make sure that a blade tooth does not  
obstruct the movement of the square.  
Keep loose clothing  
rolled up and out of the  
way of machinery and  
keep hair pulled back.  
3. Adjust the handwheel until the square is  
flush with the blade. Loosen the tilt indicator  
arrow, set to zero, and retighten. Loosen and  
adjust the stop bolt on the left side of the  
front trunnion to allow a 90° stop point. See  
Figure 37 for details.  
Wear safety glasses  
during the entire adjust-  
ment process. Failure  
to comply may result in  
serious personal injury.  
4. Turn the blade angle handwheel until the  
angle indicator points at the desired angle.  
5. Tighten the handwheel locking knob.  
6. Repeat Steps 1-6 for setting the blade to 45°  
and adjust the 45° stop bolt on the right side  
of the front trunnion. Use the 45° side of a  
combo square or a bevel gauge set at 45°.

6. If the blade tip does not touch the end of the  
adjustable square similar to the first mea-  
surement, then the table will need to be  
adjusted.  
Blade Parallelism  
Your table saw will give the best results if the  
miter slot and the rip fence are adjusted parallel  
to the blade. If either of these are not exactly par-  
allel, your cuts and your finished work will be  
lower in quality, but more important, this condition  
increases the risk of kickback. Take the time to  
adjust your table saw properly. A few minutes  
now will be time well spent.  
7. To adjust the table, loosen the four bolts in  
the table mounting locations (see Figure 39)  
and slightly tap the table. Repeat Steps 1-5  
until satisfactory. Do not forget to tighten the  
table mounting bolts when finished.  
1. Disconnect the machine from the power  
source!  
2. Use an adjustable square to measure the  
distance from the miter slot to a carbide tip  
on the blade as shown in Figure 38. Make  
sure that the face of the adjustable square is  
even along the miter slot.  
Table Mount Holes  
3. With the end of the adjustable square just  
touching the tip, lock the square in place.  
Now, mark the carbide tip with a magic mark-  
er where you made this measurement.  
Figure 39. Table mounting bolt holes.  
4. Rotate that tip to the other end of the table  
insert.  
8. Now check to see if the blade remains paral-  
lel to the miter slot when tilted to 45°.  
5. Slide the adjustable square down to the  
other end of the table insert, and compare  
the distance from the marked blade tip to the  
end of the adjustable square.  
9. Tilt the blade to 45° and repeat Steps 1-5. If  
the blade is still parallel to the miter slot, con-  
tinue on to the “Miter Gauge” instructions.  
Otherwise, continue with the next step.  
!
10. If the blade was parallel to the miter slot at  
90° but not at 45°, the table will need to be  
shimmed with metal shim stock. The shims  
are placed between the table and cabinet  
over each of the four table mounting bolts  
Use caution and remain  
alert when working  
around the saw blade.  
Failure to follow this  
warning could result in  
serious personal injury  
or death.

11. Refer to Figures 40 & 41, for shim place-  
ment. If the distance of A is shorter than B,  
shim(s) will need to be placed under corners  
#1 and #2. If the distance of B is shorter than  
A, shim(s) will need to be placed under cor-  
ners #3 and #4. Very thin shim stock works  
well, just make sure they are all the same  
thickness, and you put an equal number  
under each of the two corners.

#3 Shim  
13. Now recheck the blade to miter slot at 90°  
and 45° by repeating Steps 1-5. If the dis-  
tance of A and B are equal, continue to the  
“Miter Gauge” instructions. If the distances  
are still off, repeat Steps 9-12.

4. Reattach the table, making sure there is ade-  
quate blade clearance through all blade  
adjustments. Recheck guard alignment to  
the blade and to the table top. Adjust as nec-  
essary and tighten down all the bolts before  
use.  
Blade Alignment  
The blade position can be adjusted slightly in  
case it contacts the table insert when raised or  
tilted. This adjustment can be made either by  
moving the whole trunnion assembly, or by just  
moving the arbor bracket. Try adjusting by mov-  
ing the whole trunnion first, this is the easier of  
the two ways.  
5. If the blade is still contacting the insert,  
repeat Steps 1-4. Check all other adjust-  
ments.  
6. Recheck the blade to miter slot adjustments,  
To adjust the blade position by moving the  
trunnion:  
and adjust as necessary.
