Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you
do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
Work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.

Additional Safety for Milling Machines
You can be seriously injured or killed by getting clothing, jewelry, or long hair entangled with
rotating cutter/spindle. You can be severely cut or have fingers amputated from contact with
rotating cutters. You can be blinded or struck by broken cutting tools, metal chips, workpieces,
or adjustment tools thrown from the rotating spindle with great force. To reduce your risk of
serious injury when operating this machine, completely heed and understand the following:
UNDERSTAND ALL CONTROLS. Make sure
you understand the function and proper use of all
controls before starting. This will help you avoid
making mistakes that result in serious injury.
AVOIDING ENTANGLEMENT. DO NOT wear
loose clothing, gloves, or jewelry, and tie back
long hair. Keep all guards in place and secure.
Always allow spindle to stop on its own. DO NOT
stop spindle using your hand or any other object.
WEAR FACE SHIELD. Always wear a face shield
in addition to safety glasses. This provides more
complete protection for your face than safety
glasses alone.
USE CORRECT SPINDLE SPEED. Follow recommended speeds and feeds for each size and
type of cutting tool. This helps avoid tool breakage
during operation and ensures best cutting results.
INSPECT CUTTING TOOL. Inspect cutting tools
for sharpness, chips, or cracks before each use.
Replace dull, chipped, or cracked cutting tools
immediately.
PROPERLY SECURE CUTTER. Firmly secure
cutting tool or drill bit so it does not fly out of spindle during operation.
POWER DISRUPTION. In the event of a local
power outage during operation, turn spindle
switch OFF to avoid a possible sudden startup
once power is restored.
CLEAN MACHINE SAFELY. Metal chips or shavings can be razor sharp. DO NOT clear chips
by hand or compressed air that can force chips
farther into machine—use a brush or vacuum
instead. Never clear chips while spindle is turning.
SECURE WORKPIECE TO TABLE. Clamp workpiece to table or secure in a vise mounted to table,
so workpiece cannot unexpectedly shift or spin
during operation. NEVER hold workpiece by hand
during operation.
PROPERLY MAINTAIN MACHINE.Keep
machine in proper working condition to help
ensure that it functions safely and all guards and
other components work as intended. Perform routine inspections and all necessary maintenance.
Never operate machine with damaged or worn
parts that can break or result in unexpected movement during operation.
DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. To reduce risk of
electrocution or injury from unexpected startup,
make sure mill/drill is turned OFF, disconnected
from power, and all moving parts have come to
a complete stop before changing cutting tools or
starting any inspection, adjustment, or maintenance procedure.
REMOVE CHUCK KEY & SPINDLE TOOLS.
Always remove chuck key, drawbar wrench, and
other tools used on the spindle immediately after
use. This will prevent them from being thrown by
the spindle upon startup.

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 is prewired to operate on a power
supply circuit 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
machine is connected to a circuit protected by
fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)

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:
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.
No adapter should be used with plug. If
plug does not fit available receptacle, or if

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.
The power cord and plug specified under “Circuit
Requirements for 220V”
has 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).

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)

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.
See below for required space allocation.

its parts. To reduce this risk,
and use a forklift (or other
lifting equipment) rated for
weight of this machine.
Power lifting equipment rated for at least 50%
more than the weight of the machine and at least
two other people are required to lift and place the
mill.
To lift and place mill:
Remove crate sides/top from shipping pallet,

Anchoring machinery to the floor prevents tipping
or shifting and reduces vibration that may occur
during operation, resulting in a machine that runs
slightly quieter and feels more solid.
If the machine will be installed in a commercial or
workplace setting, or if it is permanently connected (hardwired) to the power supply, local codes
may require that it be anchored to the floor.
If not required by any local codes, fastening the
machine to the floor is an optional step. If you
choose not to do this with your machine, we recommend placing it on machine mounts, as these
provide an easy method for leveling and they have
vibration-absorbing pads.
Lag shield anchors with lag screws (see below)
are a popular way to anchor machinery to a concrete floor, because the anchors sit flush with the
floor surface, making it easy to unbolt and move
the machine later, if needed. However, anytime
local codes apply, you MUST follow the anchoring
methodology specified by the code.
LevelingAnchoring to Floor
Leveling machinery helps precision components,
such as dovetail ways, remain straight and flat
during the lifespan of the machine. Components
on an unleveled machine may slowly twist due to
the dynamic loads placed on the machine during
operation.
For best results, use a precision level that is at
least 12" long and sensitive enough to show a
distinct movement when a 0.003" shim (approximately the thickness of one sheet of standard
newspaper) is placed under one end of the level.
See Figure 16 for an example of a high precision
level available from Grizzly.

Arbor/Chuck
An arbor is included for the drill chuck that
comes with this machine. The following procedure
describes how to install the arbor in the chuck.
After the arbor is installed in the drill chuck, it
is very difficult to separate the assembly. If you
would like to use a different chuck in the future,
we recommend obtaining a new arbor.
Important: DO NOT install the drill chuck
and arbor assembly into the spindle until AFTER
the test run.
To join drill chuck and arbor:
1.
clean drill
2.
3.
4.
5. Attempt to separate drill chuck and arbor byhand —if they separate, repeat Steps 3–4.
Assembly
Use acetone or lacquer thinner to
chuck and arbor mating surfaces, especially
the bore.
Retract chuck jaws completely into chuck.
Verifying Lubrication
GEARBOX MUST
BE FILLED WITH OIL!
OIL MAY NOT BE
SHIPPED WITH MACHINE!
Refer to Lubrication Section
for Correct Oil Type.
This machine was shipped from the factory with
oil in it, but the headstock and column oil reservoir
levels must be verified before the mill is operated
for the first time. Refer to the Lubrication section, beginning on Page 45, for details on how to
check oil.
Insert small end of arbor into chuck.
Hold assembly by the arbor and tap chuck
onto a block of wood with medium force, as
illustrated below.

Power Connection
DO NOT start machine until all preceding
setup instructions have been performed.
Operating an improperly set up machine
Serious injury or death can result from
Electrocution or fire can occur
if machine is ungrounded,
incorrectly connected to
power, or connected to an
undersized circuit. Use an
electrician or a qualified service personnel to ensure a
safe power connection.
Before the machine can be connected to the
power supply, there must be an electrical circuit that meets the Circuit Requirements on
Page 14, and the correct plug must be installed
according to the instructions and wiring diagrams
provided by the plug manufacturer.
If the plug manufacturer did not include instructions, the wiring of a generic NEMA 15 -15 plug is
illustrated in the Wiring section on Page 64.
Test Run
Once assembly is complete, test run the machine
to ensure it is properly connected to power and
safety components function properly.
If you find an unusual problem during the test run,
immediately stop the machine, disconnect it from
power, and fix the problem BEFORE operating the
machine again. The Troubleshooting table in the
SERVICE section of this manual can help.
using this machine BEFORE understanding
its controls and related safety information.
DO NOT operate, or allow others to operate,
machine until the information is understood.
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.
Note About Extension Cords: Using an incor-
rectly sized extension cord may decrease the
life of electrical components on your machine.
Refer to Extension Cords on Page 15 for more
information.
Note About Phase Converters: Avoid using a
static phase converter to supply 3-Phase power
for this machine, as it could damage or decrease
the life of sensitive electrical components. If you
must use a phase converter, only use a rotary
phase converter that is sized at least 50% larger
than the highest HP rating of this machine. If
using a phase converter to supply power, only
connect the manufactured leg or "wild wire" to the
L2 terminal (see location on Page 67). The L2
terminal can handle power fluctuations because it
is wired directly to the motor.
