Additional Safety Instructions for HYDRAULIC INJECTION INJURIES. Be familiar with the hydraulic system of this machine and with the hydraulic safety sec- tion in this manual. Until you have a clear understanding about hydraulic injection inju- ries, how they occur, and how to avoid them, DO NOT use this machine.
Additional Safety Instructions for Hydraulics HYDRAULIC INJECTION INJURY. Leaking hydraulic fluid may have enough pressure to penetrate the skin. Hydraulic fluid that is injected into the body represents a medical emergency that could cause infection, dis- ability, amputation, or death. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION.
circuit requirements SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS 220/440V Operation Serious personal injury could occur if you connect the machine to the power source before you have completed the setup pro- cess. DO NOT connect the machine to the power source until instructed after setup. Electrocution or fire could result if this machine is not installed to code.
All wiring changes must be inspected by a quali- fied electrician before the machine is connected to the power source. If, at any time during this pro- cedure you need help, call Grizzly Tech Support at (570) 546-9663. To rewire the Model G0646/G0647 for 440V...
SECTION 3: SETUP Setup Safety This machine presents serious injury hazards to untrained users. Read through this entire manu- al to become familiar with the controls and opera- tions before starting the machine! Wear safety glasses dur- ing the entire setup pro- cess! The Model G0646/G0647 is a heavy machine.
NOT use these products to clean the machinery. Many cleaning solvents toxic inhaled. Minimize your risk by only using these products in a well ventilated area. Grizzly. -15-...
Site Considerations Floor Load Refer to the Machine Data Sheets (beginning on Page 4) for the weight and footprint specifications of your machine. Some floors may require addi- tional reinforcement to support both the machine and operator. Placement Location 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...
Mounting to Shop Floor Although not required, we recommend that you mount your new machine to the floor. Because this is an optional step and floor materials may vary, floor mounting hardware is not included. Generally, you can either bolt your machine to the floor or mount it on machine mounts.
Test Run Test run your machine to make sure it runs prop- erly and is ready for regular operation. The test run consists of verifying the following: 1) The motor powers up and runs correctly, 2) the motor turns the correct direction (machine is not wired out of phase), and 3) the emergency stop button safety feature works correctly.
11. One at a time, perform the following steps for each of the emergency stop buttons. a. Press the emergency stop button in to turn the machine OFF. b. WITHOUT resetting the button, press the motor start button. The motor should not start.
OMMEND that you read books, trade maga- zines, or get formal training before begin- ning any projects. Regardless of the con- tent in this section, Grizzly Industrial will not be held liable for accidents caused by lack of training. -20-...
E. Motor Start Button: Turns the motor ON when there is power to the machine. Motor Stop Button: Turns the motor OFF. G. Normal/Inch Switch: In Normal position, the beam moves to the end of the arc in the direction selected, then returns to the opposite end of the arc.

Loosen the die set screws on both sides of the punch bolster, then lift the die from below and remove it (see Figure 20). Bolster Punching Die Figure 20. Punching die removed. Use the spanner wrench to loosen and remove the punch retaining ring, then sepa- rate the punch adapter and die from the ring (see Figure 21).
Page 26
Use the spanner wrench to fully tighten the punch assembly onto the pressure plate. Insert the die into the punch bolster with the larger opening down, but do not tighten the set screws (see Figure 22). Set the controls to Punch and Inch, then reconnect the machine to power.
notching station tips Notching The notching station sets up to make notches of varying sizes and shapes in flat bar mild steel stock. The limit stops are adjustable to set the most efficient stroke length for your operation (refer to Page 33). Stay within the following notching capacities for your machine: Model G0646...
Page 28
The edges of ironwork- er tooling are very sharp and can quickly cut fin- gers and hands. Always wear heavy leather gloves when handling tooling to avoid injury. Remove the table guides, unthread the three flat head cap screws securing the notch- ing table (see Figure 26), then remove the table.
Page 29
Install the front die into the bolster and fully secure it with the two cap screws. Thread the side die adjustment set screws on both sides out 2–3 turns (see Figure 29), position the side dies into the bolster, then thread and fully tighten the cap screws through the bolster and into the die to hold them firmly against the bolster.
flat shearing tips Flat Stock Shearing The flat stock shearing station is designed to straight or angle cut flat stock or cut one flange of angle iron stock. Use the adjustable hold-down and table guides for safe and accurate cuts. Stay within the following flat stock shearing capac- ities for your machine: Model G0646...
Page 31
To shear flat stock: Set the controls for Punch and Inch, use the foot actuator to raise the top shearing die and make room for the workpiece, then turn the motor OFF. Brush one of the lubricants from Figure 18 on Page 22 or an equivalent onto both sides of the workpiece.
Bar Stock Shearing Use the bar stock shearing station to cut solid, mild steel round, square, and rectangular bar material. Stay within the following bar stock shearing capacities for your machine: Model G0646 Maximum Round Bar Diameter ... 1 Maximum Square Bar Dimensions ...
Set the controls for Notch and Normal, then use the pedal actuator to perform the shear- ing operation. Note: Make sure the cut piece falls through the rear exit panel and away from the dies so that it does not interfere with the next opera- tion.

Loosen the three lock knobs of the shearing support frame (see Figure 39). Support Frame Lock Knobs Figure 39. Front support frame lock knobs. Rotate the support frame handwheel to align the angle iron opening in the frame with the opening in the dies, then re-tighten the lock knobs.
adjusting stroke length Adjusting Stroke Length The stroke length of the beam and attached tool- ing is adjusted by moving the position of the limit stops. The typical benefit of adjusting the stroke length is to shorten the distance the tooling moves away from the workpiece to decrease the amount of cycle time needed between cuts.
Loosen the limit stop set screw, move the limit stop along the limit bar, then re-tighten the set screw. Note: A small adjustment to the limit stop position makes a large difference in the stroke length. Make small adjustments, then test the results.
Wipe away built-up grime and debris from all sta- tions, tables, and tooling. Clean away any remain- ing material with a solvent or mineral spirits prod- uct such as the cleaner/degreaser from Grizzly shown in Figure 9 on Page 15. When thoroughly clean and dry, protect the...

shearing blades installing flat blades Flat Stock Shearing Dies The bottom die for the flat stock shearing sta- tion has four cutting edges that can be used by mounting it in different positions. The top die has one mounting position and one cutting edge. Both dies can be face ground to sharpen the cutting edges if necessary.
Because of the critical positioning in relation to each other, these dies cannot be sharpened. When they become damaged or dull, call Grizzly Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 to order new ones. To re-install the angle iron shearing dies, use the...
