Clean Up; Site Considerations - Grizzly G4000 Instruction Manual

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. Avoid
chlorine-based solvents as they may damage
painted surfaces should they come in contact.
Always follow the usage instructions on the prod-
uct you choose for clean up.

1 1 . . F F l l o o o o r r L L o o a a d d : : The Model G4000 can be
mounted on your existing workbench or on
an optional cabinet stand which is listed in
our current Grizzly catalog. If you choose to
use the stand, you will find the holes for bolt-
ing the G4000 to the stand are already in
place. If you are using your own bench,
ensure that it is strong enough to handle the
G4000 lathe. Keep in mind, whichever way
you choose to mount the lathe, it's essential
that the mounting surface be perfectly flat.
Use an accurate carpenter's level to ensure
that your bench is properly leveled.
2 2 . . W W o o r r k k i i n n g g C C l l e e a a r r a a n n c c e e s s : : 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 loca-
tion for your lathe.
3 3 . . L L i i g g h h t t i i n n g g a a n n d d O O u u t t l l e e t t s s : : Lighting should be
bright enough to eliminate shadow and pre-
vent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be
dedicated or large enough to handle amper-
age requirements. Outlets should be located
near each machine so power or extension
cords are clear of high-traffic areas. Observe
local electrical codes for proper installation
of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.
