Feed Selection - Grizzly G9729 Instruction Manual

Feed Selection

Never move the feed rate lever while machine
is running. Damage to the machine will
occur.
DO NOT force any lever on this machine. If
the lever will not engage, with the machine
OFF, rotate the chuck by hand while keep-
ing light pressure on the selector. As the
chuck rotates it aligns the gear teeth inside
the selector box and as the gears come to
engage the selector will engage.
The Feed Rate selection Lever, shown in Figure
37, controls internal gears that change the feed
rate. The coarsest setting for the feed rate lever
is in the "I" position. When the lever is turned to
the "II" position, the feed rate is reduced by one
half of the feed rate of position "I". When this
lever is turned to the "III" position, the feed rate
is reduced by one half the feed rate of position
"II". In position "I", roughing would most likely be
done and in the "III" position, finishing would most
likely be done.
