9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condition. Conductor size should be in accordance with the chart below. The amperage
rating should be listed on the motor or tool
nameplate. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. Your extension
cord must also contain a ground wire and
plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords if they become damaged.
Minimum Gauge for Extension Cords
10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. DO NOT
wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties,
rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may
get caught in moving parts. Non-slip
footwear is recommended. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair.
11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also
use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have
impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to
hold work when practical. It’s safer than
using your hand and frees both hands to
operate tool.

Safety Instructions For Power Tools
15. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Consult the owner’s manual for recommended accessories. The use of improper
accessories may cause risk of injury.
16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. On machines with magnet-
ic contact starting switches there is a risk of
starting if the machine is bumped or jarred.
Always disconnect from power source
before adjusting or servicing. Make sure
switch is in OFF position before reconnecting.
17. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function.
Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that
may affect its operation. A guard or other
part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced.
18. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF. DO NOT
leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
19. NEVER OPERATE A MACHINE WHEN
TIRED, OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF
DRUGS OR ALCOHOL. Full mental alert-
ness is required at all times when running a
machine.
20. NEVER ALLOW UNSUPERVISED OR
UNTRAINED PERSONNEL TO OPERATE THE MACHINE. Make sure any
instructions you give in regards to machine
operation are approved, correct, safe, and
clearly understood.
21. IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES performing the intend-
ed operation, stop using the machine! Then
contact our service department or ask a
qualified expert how the operation should
be performed.
G0444/G0444Z 10" Table Saw -5-
Additional Safety Instructions For Table Saws
7. USING RIP FENCE AND CROSSCUT
FENCE TOGETHER. When using the
crosscut fence, the workpiece should
never be contacting the rip fence while the
saw blade is cutting.
8. STALLED BLADE. Turn the saw off
before attempting to "free" a stalled saw
blade.
9. COMFORTABLE CUTTING OPERATIONS. Avoid awkward operations and
hand positions where a sudden slip could
cause your hand to move into the spinning
saw blade.
10. EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any
time you are experiencing difficulties performing the intended operation, stop using
the machine! Contact our Service
Department at (570) 546-9663.
11. BLADE HEIGHT. Always adjust the blade
to the proper height above the workpiece
(when through-cutting).
12. DAMAGED SAW BLADES. Never use
blades that have been dropped or otherwise damaged; otherwise, serious personal injury could occur.
13. PUSH STICK. Always use a push stick
when ripping narrow stock.
1. BLADE GUARD. Always use the blade
guard on all ''through-sawing'' operations.
Through-sawing operations are those
when the blade cuts completely through the
workpiece.
2. KICKBACK. Be familiar with kickback.
Kickback happens when the workpiece is
thrown towards the operator at a high rate
of speed. Until you have a clear under-
standing of kickback and how it occurs, DO
NOT operate this table saw!
3. WORKPIECE CONTROL. Make sure the
workpiece is placed in a stable position on
the table and is either supported by the rip
fence or the crosscut table during cutting
operations.
4. SAFETY ACCESSORIES. Use feather-
boards, push sticks, hold-downs, and other
safety devices to make cutting operations
safe.
5. OPERATOR POSITION. Never stand or
have any part of your body directly in-line
with the cutting path of the saw blade.
6. REACHING OVER SAW BLADE. Never
reach behind or over the blade with either
hand while the saw is running. If kickback
occurs while reaching over the blade,
hands or arms could be pulled into the
spinning saw blade.
No list of safety guidelines can be complete.
Every shop environment is different. Always
consider safety first, as it applies to your
individual working conditions. Use this and
other machinery with caution and respect.
Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment, or poor
work results.
Like all machines there is danger associated
with this machine. Accidents are frequently
caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay
attention. Use this machine with respect and
caution to lessen the possibility of operator
injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, serious personal injury
may occur.

G0444/G0444Z 10" Table Saw
Below are tips to avoid the most common
causes of kickback:
• Never attempt freehand cuts. If the workpiece is not fed perfectly parallel with the
blade, a kickback will likely occur. Always
use the rip fence or crosscut fence to support
the workpiece.
•Make sure the blade splitter is always
aligned with the blade. A misaligned blade
splitter can cause the workpiece to bind or
stop the flow of the cut, resulting in an
increased chance of kickback. If you think
that your blade splitter is not aligned with the
blade, check it immediately!
• Ensure that your rip fence is parallel with the
blade; otherwise, the chances of kickback
are extreme. Take the time to check and
adjust the rip fence.
• Use the blade splitter during every cut. The
blade splitter maintains the kerf in the workpiece, therefore, reducing the chance of kickback.
• Feed cuts through to completion. Anytime
you stop feeding a workpiece that is in the
middle of a cut, the chance of binding, resulting in kickback, is greatly increased.
Even if you know how to prevent kickback, it
may still happen. Here are some tips to protect yourself if kickback DOES occur:
• Stand to the side of the blade during every
cut. If a kickback does occur, the thrown
workpiece usually travels directly in front of
the blade.
• Wear safety glasses or a face shield. In the
event of a kickback, your eyes and face are
the most vulnerable part of your body.
• Never, for any reason, place your hand
behind the blade. Should kickback occur,
your hand will be pulled into the blade.
• Use a push stick to keep your hands farther
away from the moving blade. If a kickback
occurs, the push stick will most likely take the
damage that your hand would have received.
Statistics prove that most common accidents among table saw users can be
linked to kickback. 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 others in the area being struck by
the flying stock, it is often the case that
the operator’s hands are pulled into the
blade during the kickback.

Preventing Kickback
G0444/G0444Z 10" Table Saw -7-
Push Sticks
The use of a push stick (Figure 1), particularly
when cutting small or narrow workpieces, provides an added level of safety for the operator.
See the template at the end of the manual for
construction details, or purchase one from the
Grizzly catalog.
Zero Clearance Table Inserts
Ideal for use when ripping thin strips or making
bevel cuts, zero clearance table inserts reduce
workpiece tearout and prevent cut-off pieces from
getting jammed between the blade and the table.
See Figure 2 for examples of zero clearance
table inserts.
Safety Accessories
Figure 1. Push stick in use.
Figure 2. Zero clearance table inserts.
Featherboards
Featherboards (Figure 3) help prevent workpiece
kickback. To make a featherboard, 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.
Figure 3. Featherboards.

G0444/G0444Z 10" Table Saw
Common Definitions, Terms And Phrases
Arbor: Metal shaft that connects the drive mech-
anism to the blade.
Bevel Edge Cut: Tilting the saw arbor and blade
to an angle between 0° and 45° to perform an
angled cutting operation.
Blade Guard: Guard mechanism that mounts
over the saw blade to prevent accidental contact with the cutting edge.
Crosscut: Table saw operation in which the miter
gauge is used to cut across the grain of the
workpiece.
Dado Blade: Blade or set of blades that attach to
the arbor and are used for cutting grooves and
rabbets.
Dado Cut: Table saw operation that uses a dado
blade to cut a flat bottomed groove into the
face of the workpiece.
Featherboard: Safety device used to keep a
board against the rip fence or table. Allows
operator to keep hands away from the saw
blade.
Kerf: The resulting cut or gap made by a saw
blade.
Kickback: An event in which the workpiece is
thrown back toward an operator at a high rate
of speed.
Miter Gauge: A component that controls the
workpiece movement while performing a
crosscut. Allows for variation of angle cuts
such as miter cuts used on a picture frame.
Moulding Head: A cutterhead attached to the
arbor. Accepts interchangeable moulding
knives for profile cutting. We DO NOT recommend the use of moulding heads because they
require advanced skills for their safe operation.
Non-Through Cut: A sawing operation that
requires the removal of the blade guard and
splitter. Dado and rabbet cuts are considered
Non-Through Cuts because the blade does not
protrude above the top face of the workpiece.
Always remember to re-install the blade guard
and splitter after performing a non-through cut.
Parallel: Being an equal distance apart at every
point. i.e. the rip fence face is parallel to the
side face of the saw blade.
Perpendicular: Intersecting and forming right
angles; at right angles to the vertical and horizontal planes. i.e. at 90˚ the blade is perpendicular to the table surface.
Push Paddle/Push Stick: Safety aid used to
push the workpiece through the cutting operation.
Rabbet: Cutting operation that creates an L-
shaped channel along the edge of the board.
Rip Cut: A cut made along the grain of the work-
piece.
Sacrificial Fence: A piece of wood attached to
the face of the rip fence that is designed to
extend the fence face away from the metal portion of the fence. Used primarily when making
rabbet cuts with a dado blade.
Splitter: Metal plate attached to the back of the
blade guard that maintains the kerf opening in
the workpiece when performing a cutting operation.
Standard Kerf:
1
⁄8" gap made with a standard
blade.
Straightedge: A tool used to check the flatness,
parallelism, or consistency of a surface(s).
Thin Kerf:
3
⁄32" gap made with a thin kerf blade.
Through Cut: A sawing operation in which the
workpiece thickness is completely sawn
through. Proper blade height usually allows
1
⁄4"
of the top of the blade to extend above the
wood stock.

If the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows regularly, your machine may be operating on a circuit
that is close to its amperage draw capacity.
However, if an unusual amperage draw does not
exist and a power failure still occurs, contact a
qualified electrician.
Always check to see if the wires in your circuit are
capable of handling the amperage draw from
your machine, as well as any other machines that
could be operating on the same circuit. If you are
unsure, consult a qualified electrician.
Electrocution or a fire
can result if the machine
is not grounded correctly. 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.
In the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance to disperse electric current. This tool is equipped with a power cord that
has an equipment-grounding prong. The outlet
must be properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Because of the high amperage draw from this
machine, we do not recommend the use of extension cords. Instead, position machines near
installed wiring to eliminate the need for extension cords.

G0444/G0444Z 10" Table Saw -17-
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy
oil to protect them from corrosion during shipment. Remove this protective coating with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as
Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly,
some parts may need to be removed. For opti-
mum performance from your machine, make
sure you clean all moving parts or sliding
contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid chlo-
rine-based solvents as they may damage painted
surfaces should they come in contact.
Gasoline and petroleum
products have low flash
points and could explode
if used to clean machinery. DO NOT use gasoline or petroleum products to clean the machinery.
Smoking near solvents
could ignite an explosion
or fire and cause serious
injury. DO NOT smoke
while using solvents.
Lack of ventilation while
using solvents could
cause serious personal
health risks, fire, or
environmental hazards.
Always work in a well
ventilated area to prevent the accumulation
of dangerous fumes.
Supply the work area
with a constant source
of fresh air.
Unsupervised children
and visitors inside your
shop could receive serious personal injury.
Ensure child and visitor
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.
Floor Load
The Model G0444 weighs 257 lbs. and the Model
G0444Z weighs 283 lbs. Both models have a
base footprint of 21"W x 26"D. Most commercial
floors are suitable for your machine. Some residential floors may require additional reinforcement to support both the machine and operator.
Working Clearances
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
your saw. See Figure 11 for the maximum working clearances of the Model G0444/G0444Z.

machinery.
Sharp edges on metal
parts may cause personal injury. Examine the
edges of all metal parts
before handling.
