Safety Instructions For Power Tools

SECTION 1: SAFETY

5. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All children and visitors should be

kept at a safe distance from work area.

6. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF with

padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys.

7. NEVER FORCE TOOL. It will do the job

better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

8. USE RIGHT TOOL. Do not force tool or

attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.

1. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working

order.

2. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to

see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning on.

3. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered

areas and benches invite accidents.

4. NEVER USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Do not use power tools in

damp or wet locations, or where any flammable or noxious fumes may exist. Keep work area well lighted.

G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers

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.

13. DO NOT OVER-REACH. Keep proper

footing and balance at all times.

14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep

tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

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 fur-

ther 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.

G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers -5-

Like all power tools, there is danger associated with the Grizzly 8" Jointers. Accidents are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use this tool with respect and caution to lessen the possibility of operator injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, serious personal injury may occur.

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.

Additional Safety Instructions For Jointers

1. JOINTING SAFETY BEGINS with your

lumber. Inspect your stock carefully before you feed it over the cutterhead. If you have any doubts about the stability or structural

integrity of your stock, DO NOT JOINT IT!

2. MAINTAIN PROPER RELATIONSHIP of

the outfeed table and the cutterhead knife path.

3. ALWAYS USE PUSH BLOCKS whenever

surface planing. Never place your hands directly over the cutterhead.

4. SUPPORT THE WORKPIECE adequately

at all times during operation, maintain control over the work at all times.

5. WHEN JOINTING, do not stand directly at

the end of either table. Position yourself just to the side of the infeed table to avoid

injury from possible kickbacks.

6. NEVER MAKE ANY SINGLE CUT DEEPER THAN

⁄8".

7. NEVER JOINT A BOARD that has loose

knots. All defects should be cut out of the board before it is planed or jointed.

8. NEVER JOINT end grain.

9. JOINT WITH THE GRAIN. Jointing against

the grain is dangerous and could produce chatter or excessive chip out.

10. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF RABBETING,

all operations must be performed with the guard in place. After rabbeting, be sure to replace the guard.

11. NEVER BACK THE WORK toward the

infeed table.

12. HABITS – GOOD AND BAD – are hard to

break. Develop good habits in your shop and safety will become second-nature to you.

13. “KICKBACK” is when the workpiece is

thrown off the jointer table by the force of the cutterhead. Always use pushblocks and safety glasses to reduce the likelihood of injury from “kickback.” If you do not understand what kickback is, or how it occurs,

DO NOT operate this machine.

14. BE AWARE THAT CERTAIN WOODS MAY CAUSE AN ALLERGIC REACTION

in people and animals, especially when exposed to fine dust. Make sure you know what type of wood dust you will be exposed to and always wear an approved respirator.

G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers -9-

Grounding

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.

This machine must have a ground prong in the plug to help ensure that it is grounded. DO NOT remove ground prong from plug to fit into a two-pronged outlet! If the plug will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Verify that any existing electrical outlet and circuit you use is actually grounded. If not, it will be necessary to run a separate 12 A.W.G. copper grounding wire from the outlet to a known ground. If not grounded properly, serious personal injury could occur.

220V Operation

We do not recommend the use of extension cords on 220V equipment. Instead, arrange the placement of your equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate the need for extension cords.

If you find it absolutely necessary to use an extension cord at 220V with your Grizzly 8" Jointer:

•Make sure the cord is rated for Standard

Service (grade S) or better.

• The extension cord must also contain a

ground wire and plug pin.

• Use at least a 16 gauge cord if the cord is 50

feet long or less.

• Use at least a 14 gauge cord if the cord is

between 51-100 feet.

110V Operation

If you find it necessary to use an extension cord at 110V with your Grizzly 8" jointer:

• Make sure the cord is rated Standard Service

(grade S) or better.

• The extension cord must also contain a

ground wire and plug pin.

• Use at least a 10 gauge cord if the cord is 50

feet long or less.

•DONOT use a cord longer that 50 feet!

SECTION 4: IDENTIFICATION

G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers -11-

Common Terms and Definitions

Infeed Table: The infeed table is the table where

the cutting operation begins. When facing the front of the jointer, it is on the right-hand side. The wood travels right to left; from the infeed table, across the cutterhead, and onto the outfeed table.

Outfeed Table: The outfeed table is the table

where the cutting operation ends. When facing the front of the jointer, it is on the left-hand side.

Cutterhead: The cutterhead is the cylindrical

assembly that holds each of the jointer knives. It spins on a horizontal axis between the infeed and outfeed table, and is covered by the cutterhead guard.

Fence: The jointer fence is the adjustable cast

iron surface that the wood stock runs along when jointing and surface planing. The fence is adjustable from 45°-90° to the infeed and outfeed tables.

Adjustment Levers and Handwheels: Controls

the height of the infeed and outfeed tables.

Table Lock Handles: The threaded handles that

must be loosened before the height of the tables can be adjusted. They are then tightened after the height is properly set.

Rabbet Cut: A rabbet cut is a groove cut along

the long edge of the wood stock, usually used for making simple joints. The cutterhead guard must be removed for this operation, so great care is needed for safe operation.

Surface Planing: Surface planing is running the

face of the wood stock over the jointer. This provides one flat side that is ready to be run through a dedicated planing machine.

Edge Jointing: Edge jointing is running the long

edge of the wood stock over the jointer. This provides one flat edge that is ready to be run against the table saw rip fence or edge glued.

Cutterhead Guard: The metal guard that covers

the cutterhead and automatically moves out of the way during operation, then automatically moves back into place after the operation.

Site Considerations

Make your shop “child safe.” Ensure that your workplace is inaccessible to youngsters by closing and locking all entrances when you are away. Never allow visitors in your shop when assembling, adjusting or operating equipment.

FLOOR AND WORKBENCH LOAD

Your Model G0500/G1018/G1018HW represents a medium weight load. Most commercial or garage shop floors should be sufficient to carry

the weight. Before moving the jointer onto a res-

idential floor, inspect it carefully to determine that it will be sufficient to carry the load of the machine, the device for moving it and its operators. If you question the strength of your floor, you should consider having it inspected for possible reinforcement.

WORKING CLEARANCES

Working clearances can be thought of as the distances between machines and obstacles that allow safe operation of every machine without limitation. Consider existing and anticipated machine needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands and/or work tables. Also consider the relative position of each machine to one another for efficient material handling.

LIGHTING AND OUTLETS

Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be dedicated or large enough to handle amperage requirements. Outlets should be located near each machine so power or extension cords are clear of high-traffic areas. Observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.

Clean Up

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.

To access all surfaces, remove the fence lock nut

and handle (see Figure 10), and remove the

fence from the jointer unit.

Do not use gasoline or other petroleum-based solvents to clean with. They have low flash points which make them extremely flammable. A risk of explosion and burning exists if these products are used.

Do not smoke while using solvents. A risk of explosion or fire exists and may result in serious personal injury.

head screws, as shown Figure 11.

Figure 11. Fastening switch to stand.

Beginning Assembly

Most of your 8'' Jointer has been assembled at the factory, but some parts must be assembled or installed after delivery.

TOOLS REQUIRED: You will need a high quality

square, a Phillips screwdriver, a long straightedge, 10mm, 12mm and 14mm open-end wrenches, and a 3mm Allen wrench.

Some metal parts may have sharp edges on them after they are formed. Please examine the edges of all metal parts before handling them. Failure to do so could result in injury.

Disconnect power to the machine when performing all assembly steps. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.

Wear safety glasses during the entire assembly process. Failure to comply may result in serious personal injury.

Both tables can be adjusted by unlocking the

table locks (see Figure 29) and rotating the hand-

wheels. To accurately joint or plane a piece of stock, both tables must be aligned correctly, beginning with the outfeed table.

Table Alignment

The knives were set to their proper height at the factory, but we recommend that you inspect them to ensure proper operation and table setup.

To inspect the knife height:

1. Make sure that the power has not been con-

nected to the machine at this point in the setup process!

2. Remove the belt guard shown in Figure 27.

Knife Inspection

Figure 27. Removing belt guard.

Figure 28. Jig placement on cutterhead.

3. Using the cutterhead pulley, rotate the cut-

terhead to make one of the knives accessible to the knife jig. Lower the tables if it is necessary to make more room.

4. Place the jig over the knife as illustrated in Figure 28.

5. Make sure that the middle pad of the jig is

barely touching the knife and that the pads on the ends of the jig are resting firmly on the cutterhead.

6. Repeat step 5 on all knives. If you find that

any knives are out of adjustment, correct

them as discussed in Section 7: Service Adjustments.

To align the outfeed table:

1. Remove the belt guard so you can rotate the

cutterhead safely.

2. Rotate the cutterhead so that one of the

knives is at top dead center. Note—A knife is

at top dead center when it is at its highest point during the rotation. See Figure 30 for an illustration of a knife at top dead center.

Figure 32. Infeed table even with outfeed table.

Figure 33. Pointer set to 0.

3. Place a straightedge across the outfeed

table, so the end of the straightedge is directly over the knife.

4. If the outfeed table is set correctly, the

straightedge will lay across the table and barely touch the knife when it is at top dead

center (see illustration in Figure 31). Verify

that the outfeed table height reflects this condition.

5. If the outfeed table needs to be adjusted,

release the outfeed table lock and adjust the height by rotating the handwheel that is located below the table.

6. When you have the outfeed table properly

adjusted, lock the table height in place.

To adjust the infeed table:

1. Make sure the outfeed table is adjusted as

previously described.

2. Place a straightedge half way on the outfeed

table and halfway over the infeed table.

3. Release the infeed table lock and adjust the

infeed table flush with the outfeed table as

illustrated in Figure 32. The infeed table

should be exactly the same height as the outfeed table.

4. Lock the infeed table in place.

5. Set the pointer shown in Figure 33 to 0 on

the depth indicator scale.

To check and adjust the 45˚ R fence stop:

1. Loosen the fence tilt lock handle.

2. Rotate the 90˚ stop tab out of the way and

ease the fence back with the tilt handle, until it comes to rest on the 45˚ R stop bolt.

3. Use a bevel gauge that is set to 135˚, and

place it on the table so the angled portion is

against the fence as shown in Figure 40.

4. Check the current position of the fence. If it

fits the angle of the bevel gauge, the fence is already set correctly. If it does not, then the fence needs to be adjusted.

5. Loosen the jam nut on the 45˚R fence stop

bolt.

6. Adjust the 45˚R fence stop bolt until the

fence angle matches the bevel gauge.

Once assembly is complete, you are ready to test run the machine.

Test Run

To install a plug on your power cord:

1. Refer to Section 3: Circuit Requirements to

determine the correct plug and receptacle for your particular setup.

2. Have the plug and receptacle installed by a

licensed electrician.

Plug Installation

DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjust the machine while it is running. Wait until the machine is turned off, unplugged and all working parts have come to a complete stop before you do anything! Otherwise serious personal injury may occur.

Connect the power to the power supply. Press the START button. Make sure that your finger is poised on the STOP button, just in case there is a problem. The jointer should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be investigated and corrected before operating the machine further.

If the jointer seems to be running correctly, let it run for a short time to ensure that the moving parts are working properly with no excessive vibration. If any problem develops, correct it before attempting to use the machine.

If you cannot locate the source of unusual noises, feel free to contact our service department for help.

SECTION 6: OPERATIONS

Keep loose clothing out of the way of machinery and keep hair pulled back during operations.

Your safety is important! Please follow the warnings below during this entire section:

Operating this equipment creates the potential for flying debris to cause eye injury. Always wear safety glasses when operating equipment. Everyday glasses or reading glasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses. Be certain the safety glasses you wear meet the appropriate standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

Using this machine produces sawdust that may cause short and longterm respiratory illness. Always wear a dust mask when operating this machine.

Stock Inspection

& Requirements

Here are some rules to follow when choosing and cutting stock:

• If the stock has large or loose knots, find another workpiece. Knots in a workpiece can be dangerous to the operator, as well as destructive to equipment.

• When jointing, always cut WITH the grain rather than AGAINST it. Cutting against the grain (going against the pattern of the wood’s growth rings) chips the wood instead of cutting it, making the workpiece rough and irregular and increasing the chances that a kickback will occur.

To check the grain direction, look at the side of your board. If the direction of the grain structure facing the cutterhead runs toward the cutterhead as it sits on the infeed table,

your cut will be WITH the grain. See Figure

43.

Figure 43. Correct and incorrect grain align-

ment to cutterhead.

G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers -29-

Squaring Stock

The jointer performs two of the four required operations for squaring up stock—surface planing and edge jointing. To help you understand these two operations better, we quickly describe the squaring process below:

Step 1. Surface plane the concave face with a

JOINTER to make it flat.

Step 3. Plane the second face with a THICK-

NESS PLANER to make it parallel to the first face.

Step 4. Rip the second edge with a TABLE SAW

to make it parallel to the first edge.

Step 2. Edge joint the best edge with a JOINTER

to make it flat.

• Make sure that any stock you process with the jointer is clean and free of any dirt, nails, staples, tiny rocks or any other foreign objects that may damage the jointer blades.

• Only process natural wood fiber through your jointer. Never joint MDF, particle board, plywood, laminates or other synthetically made materials.

• Make sure any stock you joint is properly dried. Wood with a moisture content over 20% will cause unnecessary wear on the knives and will produce undesirable results.

NOTICE

Occasionally, you will find woods that defy all rules. In those rare cases, it is best to feed the workpiece slowly and take several shallow cuts. A few extra passes will hurt much less than a ruined workpiece.

-30-

G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers

Surface Planing

The purpose of surface planing is to make a flat face on a piece of stock to prepare it for planing

on a thickness planer. See Figure 44.

4. Make sure your fence is set to 90˚

5. If your workpiece is cupped (warped), place

it so the concave side is face down on the surface of the infeed table.

6. Start the jointer.

7. With a push block in each hand, press the

workpiece against the table and fence with firm pressure.

8. Feed the workpiece over the cutterhead as

shown in Figure 45. Note—When your lead-

ing hand (with push block) gets within 4" of the cutterhead, lift it up and over the cutterhead, and place the push block on the portion of the workpiece that is over the outfeed table. At this point, focus your pressure on the outfeed end of the workpiece while feeding, and repeat the same action with your trailing hand when it gets within 4" of the cutterhead. To keep your hands safe, DO NOT let them get closer than 4" from the cutterhead when it is moving!

9. Repeat steps 7-8 until the entire surface is

flat.

To surface plane on the jointer:

1. Make sure that you have read and under-

stand all safety instructions in Section 1: Safety and that your stock has been inspect-

ed for safe operation as described in the “Stock Inspection” instructions earlier in this section.

2. Make sure your workpiece is within the mini-

mum and maximum stock dimensions that your Grizzly 8" Jointer can safely process. (Check the data sheet in the back of this manual for your particular model.)

3. Set the cutting depth for your operation. (We

suggest

⁄32" for surface planing, using a more shallow depth for harder wood species or for wider stock.)

NOTICE

If you are not experienced with a jointer, set the depth of cut to 0", and practice feeding the workpiece across the tables as described below. This procedure will better prepare you for the actual operation.

Figure 44. Illustration of surface planing effects.

workpiece.

G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers -31-

Edge Jointing

The purpose of edge jointing is to produce a finished, flat-edged surface that is suitable for joinery or finishing. It is also a necessary step in the

squaring process of rough or warped stock. See

Figure 46.

Figure 46. Illustration of edge jointing effects.

To edge joint on the jointer:

1. Make sure that you have read and under-

stand all safety instructions in Section 1: Safety and that your stock has been inspect-

ed for safe operation as described in the “Stock Inspection” instructions earlier in this section.

2. Make sure your workpiece is within the mini-

mum and maximum stock dimensions that your Grizzly 8" Jointer can safely process. (Check the data sheet in the back of this manual for your particular model.)

3. Set the cutting depth for your operation. (We

suggest between

⁄16" and 1⁄8" for edge jointing, using a more shallow depth for harder wood species or for wider stock.)

4. Make sure the fence is set to 90˚.

5. If your workpiece is cupped (warped), place

it so the concave side is face down on the surface of the infeed table.

6. Start the jointer.

7. Press the workpiece against the table and

fence with firm pressure. Use your trailing hand to guide the workpiece through the cut.

8. Feed the workpiece over the cutterhead as

shown in Figure 47. Note—If your leading

hand gets within 4" of the cutterhead, lift it up and over the cutterhead, and place it on the portion of the workpiece that is over the outfeed table. At this point, focus your pressure on the outfeed end of the workpiece while feeding, and repeat the same action with your trailing hand when it gets within 4" of the cutterhead. To keep your hands safe, DO NOT let them get closer than 4" from the cutterhead when it is moving!

9. Repeat steps 7-8 until the entire edge is flat.

Bevel Cutting

The purpose of bevel cutting is to cut a specific

angle into the edge of a workpiece. See Figure

48.

The Grizzly 8" Jointers have preset fence stops at 45˚ to the left and 45˚ to the right. If your situation requires a different angle, the preset fence stops can be easily adjusted for your needs.

3. Set the cutting depth for your operation. (We

suggest between

⁄16" and 1⁄8" for bevel cutting, using a more shallow depth for harder wood species or for wider stock.)

4. Make sure your fence is set to the angle of

your desired cut.

5. If your workpiece is cupped (warped), place

it so the concave side is face down on the surface of the infeed table.

6. Start the jointer.

7. With a push block in your leading hand,

press the workpiece against the table and fence with firm pressure.

8. Feed the workpiece over the cutterhead as

shown in Figure 49. Note—If your leading

hand gets within 4" of the cutterhead, lift it up and over the cutterhead, and place the push block on the portion of the workpiece that is over the outfeed table. At this point, focus your pressure on the outfeed end of the workpiece while feeding, and repeat the same action with your trailing hand when it gets within 4" of the cutterhead. To keep your hands safe, DO NOT let them get closer than 4" from the cutterhead when it is moving!

9. Repeat steps 7-8 until the angled cut is sat-

isfactory to your needs.

To bevel cut on the jointer:

1. Make sure that you have read and under-

stand all safety instructions in Section 1: Safety and that your stock has been inspect-

ed for safe operation as described in the “Stock Inspection” instructions earlier in this section.

2. Make sure your workpiece is within the mini-

mum and maximum stock dimensions that your Grizzly 8" Jointer can safely process. (Check the data sheet in the back of this manual for your particular model.)

The purpose of rabbet cutting is to remove a section of the workpiece edge. When combined with another rabbet cut edge, the rabbet joints create a simple, yet strong method of joining stock. See

Figure 50.

4. Set the cutting depth for your operation. (We

suggest between

⁄16" and 1⁄8" for rabbet cutting, using a more shallow depth for harder wood species or for wider stock.)

5. Make sure your fence is moved forward, so

the amount of infeed/outfeed table exposed is the same as the size of your rabbet. Also, make sure your fence is set to 90˚

6. Start the jointer.

7. With a push block in each hand, press the

workpiece against the table and fence with firm pressure.

8. Feed the workpiece over the cutterhead as

shown in Figure 51. Note—When your lead-

ing hand gets within 4" of the cutterhead, lift it up and over the cutterhead, and place the push block on the portion of the workpiece that is over the outfeed table. At this point, focus your pressure on the outfeed end of the workpiece while feeding, and repeat the same action with your trailing hand when it gets within 4" of the cutterhead. To keep your hands safe, DO NOT let them get closer than 4" from the cutterhead when it is moving!

9. Repeat steps 7-8 until the your rabbet is cut

to depth.

To rabbet cut on the jointer:

1. Make sure you have read and understand all

safety instructions in Section 1: Safety and

that your stock has been inspected for safe operation as described in the “Stock Inspection” instructions earlier in this section.

2. Make sure your workpiece is within the mini-

mum and maximum stock dimensions that your Grizzly 8" Jointer can safely process. (Check the data sheet in the back of this manual for your particular model.)

3. If your workpiece is cupped (warped), it

should be straightened out before you attempt to make a rabbet cut.

SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE

Disconnect power to the machine when performing any adjustments or maintenance. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.

Regular periodic maintenance on your Grizzly 8" jointer will ensure its optimum performance. Make a habit of inspecting your jointer each time you use it. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary.

1. Loose mounting bolts.

2. Worn switch.

3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs.

4. Damaged V-belt.

5. Any other condition that could hamper the

safe operation of this machine.

General

Lubrication

Since all bearings are shielded and permanently lubricated, simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced. DO NOT lubricate them. Table ways and the fence assembly should not be lubricated. If the tables appear to be stuck, disassemble and clean any foreign materials from the ways. Re-assemble and reset the gibs.

V-Belt

Inspect regularly for tension and wear. Check the V-belt tension by squeezing them in the center. If you can squeeze them more than

⁄2" on both sides, using moderate pressure, then they need to be tightened. Check pulleys to ensure that they are properly aligned. To replace or adjust the V-

belts, see Section 8: Service Adjustments.

Knife Condition

Using sharp knives is one of the most important factors involved with the operation of the jointer. A good maintenance procedure is to hone the knives to keep them in top shape. A knife hone will polish and finely sharpen jointer knives quickly and easily without removing them.

For damaged or extra dull knives, have them resharpened by a professional grinder. To avoid downtime from resharpening, we recommend having an extra set of knives on hand.

Table

The table and other non-painted surfaces on your Grizzly 8" Jointer should be protected against rust and pitting. Wiping the table clean after every use ensures that moisture from wood dust does not remain on bare metal surfaces.

Tables can be kept rust-free with regular applications of products like SLIPIT

or Boeshield® T-9. For long term storage you may want to consider products like Kleen Bore's Rust Guardit™.

About Service

Setting Knives

The Grizzly 8" Jointers come with both jack screws and springs to provide you with two

options for cutterhead adjustments (see Figure

52). Note—Only one of these options is needed to set the knives—see step 5* for clarification.

Figure 52. Cutterhead profile.

To set the knives:

1. Disconnect the jointer from the power

source!

2. Remove the cutterhead guard from the table

and lower the infeed and outfeed tables as far as they go. This will give you unrestricted access to the cutterhead.

3. Remove the belt guard to expose the cutter-

head pulley.

4. Rotate the cutterhead pulley to give you

good access to one of the cutterhead knives.

5. Loosen the cutterhead gib bolts, starting in

the middle, and alternating back and forth until all of the gib bolts are loose, but not falling out.

*Note—If this is the first time you are setting

the knives, remove the gib and knife from the cutterhead. Decide which adjustment option you are going to use between the jack screws and the springs. If you decide to use

Setting the knives correctly is crucial to the proper operation of the jointer and is very important in keeping the knives sharp. If one knife is higher than the others, it will do the majority of the work, and thus, dull much faster than the others.

The knives on your Grizzly 8" Jointer should be set .051" (1.3MM)-.060" (1.5MM) higher than the cutterhead. The knife jig included with the jointer is designed to set the knives within this height.

G0500/G1018/G1018HW 8" Jointers -37-

Adjusting Gibs

the jack screws, remove the springs from the cutterhead. If you decide to use the springs, you can just thread the jack screws completely into the cutterhead so they will not get lost. Replace the gib and knife.

6. Position the knife gauge over the knife as

shown in Figure 53 and loosen the gib bolts

until the knife is completely loose.

Figure 53. Jig placement on cutterhead.

Figure 54. Jack screw access hole.

Figure 55. Table gibs.

Springs—Push the knife down with the jig so

that the knife edge is touching the middle pad of the jig. Hold the jig down and tighten the gib bolts just tight enough to hold the

knife in place. Repeat steps 5-7 with the rest

of the knives.

8. Rotate the cutterhead to the first knife you

started with. Slightly tighten all the gib bolts, starting at the ends and working your way to the middle by alternating left and right. Repeat this step on the rest of the knives.

9. Repeat step 8.

10. Repeat step 8, but final tighten each gib bolt.

7. Jack Screws—Using a 3MM allen wrench,

find the jack screws through the access

holes in the cutterhead (Figure 54) and

rotate the jack screws to raise or lower the knife. When the knife is set correctly, it will barely touch the middle pad of the knife setting jig. Snug the gib bolts tight enough to

just hold the knife in place. Repeat steps 5- 7 with the rest of the knives.

The function of the table gibs (shown in Figure

55) is to eliminate excessive play in the table

movement. The gibs also control how easy it will be to move the tables up and down.

To adjust the table gibs:

1. Loosen the table lock.

2. Loosen the lock nuts and setscrews shown in Figure 56 on the next page. Make sure you

support the table as you loosen it to prevent it from dropping to the end of its travel.

Adjusting V-Belts

Figure 57. Motor adjustment bolts (shown

underneath stand for clarity).

In order for your jointer to perform at its best, you should check (and adjust if necessary) the V-belt tension and alignment.

To adjust the V-belt tension:

1. Disconnect the jointer from the power

source!

2. Remove the stand door to gain access to the

V-belts.

3. Loosen the motor adjustment bolts shown in Figure 57.

4. Push down on the motor with one hand and

tighten the motor adjustment bolts with the other hand.

5. Check the V-belt tension by squeezing them in the center, as shown in Figure 58. If you

can squeeze the V-belts more than

⁄2" on

both sides, using moderate pressure, then

they need to be tighter—repeat steps 3-5.

6. When the V-belt tension is correct, replace

the stand door.

Figure 56. Table gib lock nuts and setscrews.

5. Evenly tighten both gib setscrews a small

amount, then check the table by moving it up and down. Adjust the setscrews as needed until the friction of the table movement is balanced between minimal play and ease of

movement. Note—Tighter gibs reduce play

but make it harder to adjust the tables.

6. Repeat steps 1-5 with the other table.

7. Adjust the table height of both tables before

resuming with any operations.

Figure 58. Checking V-belt tension.

Figure 59. Motor mount bolts(shown underneath

stand for clarity).

To adjust the V-belt alignment:

1. Disconnect the jointer from the power

source!

2. Remove the stand door to gain access to the

V-belts.

3. Loosen the motor mount bolts shown in Figure 59.

4. Use a straightedge to align the motor and

cutterhead pulleys.

5. Tighten the motor mount bolts. Note—Minor alignment changes can be made by loosening the setscrew on the pulleys and adjusting them on their shaft. Replace the stand door.

Replacing V-Belt

During the life of your jointer, you will need to replace the V-belts when they become cracked or damaged.

To replace the V-belts:

1. Disconnect the jointer from the power

source!

2. Remove the stand door to gain access to the

V-belts.

3. Loosen the motor adjustment bolts shown in Figure 60.

4. Move the motor up to loosen and remove the

V-belts from the motor and cutterhead pulleys.

5. Install the new V-belts on the motor and cut-

terhead pulleys.

6. Adjust the V-belts to their proper tension.

7. Replace the stand door.
