    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.

    Blade Selection 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 25), flat-top ground tooth profile (Figure 30) and large gullets to allow for large chip removal.

    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. Figure 30. Various saw tooth cutting profiles. -29-...
  • Page 32: Crosscutting

    Hold the workpiece against the miter gauge and line up the cut with the blade. -30- Turn on the saw and allow it to come to full speed. Hold the workpiece firmly against the face of the miter gauge and ease it into the blade as shown in Figure 31.
  • Page 33: Ripping

    Plug the saw into the power source, and turn on the saw and allow it to come to full speed. The jointed edge of the workpiece must be slide against the fence during the cutting operation.
  • Page 34: Dado Operations

    Reconnect the saw to the power source. With one finger ready to push the OFF but- ton, turn the saw on. The blade should run smooth with no vibrations or wobbling. When the blade has reached full speed, per- form a test cut with a scrap piece of wood.
  • Page 35 Failure to follow this warning could result in serious personal injury. Turn on the saw and allow the blade to reach full speed. Perform a test cut on a scrap piece of wood.
  • Page 36: Rabbet Operations

    Commonly used in furniture joinery, a rabbet is a straight groove cut in the edge of the workpiece. Rabbets can be cut using either a dado blade (Figure 29) or a standard saw blade. Rabbet operations present very real haz- ards requiring proper procedures to avoid serious injury.
  • Page 37 10. Remove the sacrificial fence from the metal fence. 11. Using a bandsaw or jig saw, cut the marked blade profile from the sacrificial fence. 12. Re-attach the sacrificial fence to the metal fence with screws or clamps.
  • Page 38 Failure to follow this warning could result in serious personal injury. Reconnect the saw to the power source and turn the saw on.
  • Page 39 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.
  • Page 40: Maintenance

    -38- Regular periodic maintenance on your Model G1023Z Series Table Saw will ensure its optimum mainte- performance. Make a habit of inspecting your machine each time you use it. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary: 1.
  • Page 41: Lubrication

    For long term storage, use products such as Boeshield T-9 ® . Both of these products are available in the Grizzly catalog. 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.
  • Page 42: V-Belt

    Pull off the old V-belts and replace them with new ones. Have the number from the belt ready when calling the service department for replacements. Raise the arbor and remove the board to adjust the V-belt tension. Tighten the motor mount bolt. G1023Z Series Heavy-Duty 10'' Table Saw...

  • Page 45: Blade Parallelism

    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.
