Machine Description

A sliding table saw is primarily used to rip and crosscut sheet stock or panels in a production setting. The sliding table saves time and increases accuracy by removing the burden of sliding large and heavy panels over a stationary table surface. This saw can also be used as a traditional table saw for most types of through-cuts.

The Model G0699 is equipped with a scoring blade, which is a smaller blade located in front of the main blade. It makes a shallow cut in the workpiece in the opposite direction of the main blade, greatly reducing tear-out and chipped edges.

When using the sliding table saw as a traditional table saw, the sliding table is locked in place and the rip fence is then used to guide the workpiece through the cut.

Additional Safety for Sliding Table Saws

Serious injury or death can occur from getting cut or having body parts, such as fingers, amputated by rotating saw blade. Workpieces thrown by kickback can strike operators or bystanders with deadly force. Flying particles from cutting operations or broken blades can cause eye injuries or blindness. To minimize risk of getting hurt or killed, anyone operating machine MUST completely heed hazards and warnings below.

HAND & BODY POSITIONING. Keep hands

away from saw blade and out of blade path during operation, so they cannot slip accidentally into blade. Stand to side of blade path. Never reach around, behind, or over blade. Only operate at front of machine.

BLADE GUARD. Use blade guard for all cuts that allow it to be used safely. Make sure blade guard is installed and adjusted correctly. Promptly repair or replace if damaged. Re-install blade guard immediately after operations that require its removal.

RIVING KNIFE. Use riving knife for all cuts. Make sure riving knife is aligned and positioned correctly. Promptly repair or replace it if damaged.

KICKBACK. Kickback occurs when saw blade ejects workpiece back toward operator. Know how to reduce risk of kickback. Learn how to protect yourself if it does occur.

FENCE ADJUSTMENTS. Make sure rip fence remains properly adjusted and parallel with blade. Always lock fence before using.

PUSH STICKS/BLOCKS. Use push sticks or push blocks whenever possible to keep your hands farther away from blade while cutting. In event of an accident these devices will often take damage that would have happened to hands/ fingers.

BLADE ADJUSTMENTS. Adjusting blade height or tilt during operation increases risk of crashing blade and sending metal fragments flying with deadly force at operator or bystanders. Only adjust blade height and tilt when blade is completely stopped and saw is OFF.

CHANGING BLADES. Always disconnect power before changing blades. Changing blades while saw is connected to power greatly increases injury risk if saw is accidentally powered up.

WORKPIECE CONTROL. Feeding workpiece incorrectly increases risk of kickback. Make sure workpiece is in stable position on tables and supported by rip fence or crosscut fence during cutting operation. Never start saw with workpiece touching blade. Allow blade to reach full speed before cutting. Only feed workpiece against direction of main blade rotation. Always use some type of guide to feed workpiece in a straight line. Never back workpiece out of cut or move it backwards or sideways after starting a cut. Feed cuts all the way through to completion. Never perform any operation “freehand”. Turn OFF saw and wait until blade is completely stopped before removing workpiece.

Model G0699 (Mfd. Since 9/16)

DAMAGED SAW BLADES. Never use blades that have been dropped or otherwise damaged.

CUTTING CORRECT MATERIAL. Never cut materials not intended for this saw. Only cut natural and man-made wood products, laminate covered wood products, and some plastics. Cutting metal, glass, stone, tile, etc. increases risk of operator injury due to kickback or flying particles.

Preventing Kickback

Protecting Yourself

Do the following to prevent kickback:

• When rip cutting, only cut workpieces that have at least one smooth and straight edge. DO NOT cut excessively warped, cupped or twisted wood. If workpiece warpage is questionable, always choose another workpiece.

• Never attempt freehand cuts. If the workpiece is not fed parallel with the blade, kickback will likely occur. Always use the rip fence or crosscut fence to support the workpiece.

• Ensure sliding table slides parallel with the blade; otherwise, the chances of kickback are extreme. Take the time to check and adjust

the sliding table before cutting.

• Always use the riving knife whenever possible. It reduces risk of kickback and reduces your risk of injury if it does occur.

• Always keep blade guard installed and in good working order.

• Feed cuts through to completion. Any time you stop feeding a workpiece in the middle of a cut, the chance of kickback is greatly increased.

From Kickback

Even if you know how to prevent kickback, it may still happen. Here are some precautions to help protect yourself if kickback DOES occur:

• Stand to the side of the blade path when cutting. If a kickback does occur, the thrown workpiece usually travels directly towards the 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 parts of your body.

• Never, for any reason, place your hand behind the blade path. Should kickback occur, your hand will be pulled into the blade.

• Use a push stick or push block to keep your hands farther away from the moving blade. If a kickback occurs, these safety devices will most likely take the damage that your hand would have received.

• Use featherboards or anti-kickback devices to prevent or slow down kickback.

• Ensure rip fence is adjusted parallel with the blade; otherwise, the chances of kickback are extreme. Take the time to check and adjust the rip fence before cutting.

-10 -

Statistics show that the 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 the 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.

Model G0699 (Mfd. Since 9/16)

Glossary Of Terms

The following is a list of common definitions, terms and phrases used throughout this manual as they relate to this sliding table saw and woodworking in general. Become familiar with these terms for assembling, adjusting or operating this machine. Your safety is VERY important to us at Grizzly!

Arbor: Metal shaft extending from the drive

mechanism, to which saw blade is mounted.

Bevel Edge Cut: Tilting the arbor and saw blade

to an angle between 0° and 45° to cut a beveled edge onto a workpiece.

Blade Guard: Metal or plastic safety device that

mounts over the saw blade. Its function is to prevent the operator from coming into contact with the saw blade.

Crosscut: Cutting operation in which the cross-

cut fence is used to cut across the grain, or across the shortest width of the workpiece.

Dado Blade: Blade or set of blades that are used

to cut grooves and rabbets.

Dado Cut: Cutting operation that cuts a flat bot-

tomed groove into the face of the workpiece.

Featherboard: Safety device used to keep the

workpiece against the rip fence and against the table surface.

Kerf: The resulting cut or gap in the workpiece

from the saw blade passing through it while cutting.

Kickback: A dangerous event that happens if

the blade catches on the workpieces while cutting. The force of the blade then throws the workpiece back toward the operator with what sounds like a horrible explosion. The danger comes from flying stock striking the operator or bystanders. The operator’s hands may also be pulled into the blade during the kickback. Refer to Preventing Kickback on Page 100 for additional information.

Non-Through Cut: A sawing operation in which

the workpiece is not completely sawn through. Dado and rabbet cuts are considered NonThrough Cuts because the blade does not protrude above the top face of the wood stock.

Parallel: When two objects are spaced an equal

distance apart at every point along two given lines or planes (I.e. the rip fence face is parallel to the face of the saw blade).

Perpendicular: Lines or planes that intersect and

form right angles. I.e. the blade is perpendicular to the table surface.

Push Stick: Safety device used to push the

workpiece through a cutting operation. Used most often when rip cutting thin workpieces.

Rabbet: Cutting operation that creates an

L-shaped channel along the edge of the workpiece.

Rip Cut: Cutting operation in which the rip fence

is used to cut with the grain, or cut across the widest width of the workpiece.

Riving Knife: Metal plate located behind the

blade maintains the kerf opening in the wood when cutting, and helps reduce the risk of injury from a kickback that otherwise would result in amputation.

Straightedge: A tool with a perfectly straight

edge used to check the flatness, parallelism, or consistency of a surface(s).

Through Cut: A sawing operation in which the

workpiece is completely sawn through.

property, consult an electrician if you are unsure about wiring practices or electrical codes in your area.

Model G0699 (Mfd. Since 9/16)

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The wire with green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair or replacement of the power cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you do not understand these grounding requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, disconnect it from power, and immediately replace it with a new one.

We do not recommend using an extension cord with this machine. cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only on a temporary basis.

Extension cords cause voltage drop, which can damage electrical components and shorten motor life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller (higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).

Any extension cord used with this machine must be in good condition and contain a ground wire and matching plug/receptacle. Additionally, it must meet the following size requirements:

Grounding Instructions

This machine MUST be grounded. In the event of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.

process. DO NOT connect to power until

For 220V operation: The power cord and plug

specified under “ on the previous page have an equipment-grounding wire and a grounding prong. The plug must only be inserted into a matching receptacle (outlet) that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances (see figure below).

For 440V operation: As specified in “Circuit Requirements for 440V” on the previous page, the machine must be hardwired to the power source, using a locking switch as a disconnecting means (see below). The machine must also be connected to a grounded metal permanent wiring system; or to a system having an equipment-grounding conductor. Due to the complexity and high voltage involved, this type of installation MUST be done by a qualified electrician.

Correcting Phase

Polarity

This subsection is only provided for troubleshooting. If you discover during the test run that the saw will not operate, or that the blades spin backward, the power connections may be wired out-of-phase. Without the proper test equipment to determine the polarity of the power source legs, wiring machinery to 3-phase power may require trial-and-error. Correcting phase polarity is simply a matter of reversing the positions where two of the incoming power source wires are connected at the junction box.

If this machine is wired out-of-phase, the blades will spin in the wrong directions. If you attempt a cutting operation with the blades spinning backward, the workpiece could be thrown aggressively from the table during the cutting operation. This could result in death or serious personal injury. You MUST make sure the blades are spinning in the correct directions before attempting any cutting operations. Perform Step 9 of the test run on Page 41 to make sure the machine is correctly wired.

To correct phase polarity:

DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!

2. Remove the power connection junction box cover (see Figure 6).

Swap any two of the hot incoming power

connections (see Figure 7), then replace the junction box cover.

Make sure the incoming ground wire is connected to the right-most terminal post in the power connection junction box to ensure the machine is properly grounded. An ungrounded or improperly grounded machine could cause electrocution.

The unpainted surfaces of your machine are coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that prevents corrosion during shipment and storage. This rust preventative works extremely well, but it will take a little time to clean.

Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your machine. The time you spend doing this now will give you a better appreciation for the proper care of your machine's unpainted surfaces.

There are many ways to remove this rust preventative, but the following steps work well in a wide variety of situations. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions with any cleaning product you use and make sure you work in a well-ventilated area to minimize exposure to toxic fumes.

Before cleaning, gather the following:

• Disposable rags

• Cleaner/degreaser (WD•40 works well)

• Safety glasses & disposable gloves

• Plastic paint scraper (optional)

Basic steps for removing rust preventative:

Many cleaning solvents

Site Considerations

Weight Load

Refer to the of your machine. Make sure that the surface upon which the machine is placed will bear the weight of the machine, additional equipment that may be installed on the machine, and the heaviest workpiece that will be used. Additionally, consider the weight of the operator and any dynamic loading that may occur when operating the machine.

Space Allocation

Consider the largest size of workpiece that will be processed through this machine and provide enough space around the machine for adequate operator material handling or the installation of auxiliary equipment. With permanent installations, leave enough space around the machine to open or remove doors/covers as required by the maintenance and service described in this manual.
