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.

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

SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY
Before installing the machine, consider the availability and proximity of the required power supply
circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the
requirements for this machine, a new circuit must
be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution,
fire, or equipment damage, installation work and
electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or
qualified service personnel in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards.
or equipment damage
may occur if machine is
not properly grounded
and connected to power
The full-load current rating is the amperage a
machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.
On machines with multiple motors, this is the
amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all
motors and electrical devices that might operate
at one time during normal operations.
The full-load current is not the maximum amount
of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine
is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond
the full-load rating.
If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length
of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result—
especially if connected to an undersized circuit.
To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid overloading the machine during operation and make
sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that
meets the specified circuit requirements.
This machine can be converted to operate on a
440V power supply (refer to Voltage Conversion
instructions) that has a verified ground and meets
the following requirements:
For your own safety and protection of
Note: Circuit requirements in this manual apply to
a dedicated circuit—where only one machine will
be running on the circuit at a time. If machine will
be connected to a shared circuit where multiple
machines may be running at the same time, consult an electrician or qualified service personnel to
ensure circuit is properly sized for safe operation.
A power supply circuit includes all electrical
equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel
in the building and the machine. The power supply circuit used for this machine must be sized to
safely handle the full-load current drawn from the
machine for an extended period of time. (If this

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

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!
1.
2. Remove the power connection junction box
cover (see Figure 6).
3.
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)

— If the difference is equal to or less than
0.004" between the "A" and "B" measurements, the sliding table parallelism is
acceptable. Continue with Step 21.
— If the difference between the "A" and "B"
measurements is greater than 0.004", the
sliding table parallel adjustment bolts need
to be re-adjusted. Continue with the next
step.
Use the felt tip pen to mark the right blade
