Safety Instructions For Power Tools
These safety rules cannot cover every situation in a woodshop. Consider your conditions when setting up or operating your table saw.
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.DON’T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain. Keep work area well lighted.
5.KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept a safe distance from work area.
6.MAKE WORK SHOP KID PROOF with padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys.
7.DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
8.USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
9.USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure it is rated Hard Service (grade S) or better. Conductor size must be 16 A.W.G. for cords up to 100 feet in length. 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 Gage for extension cord:
16 A.W.G. 50ft
16 A.W.G. 100ft
14 A.W.G. 200ft
12 A.W.G. 300ft
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.
-2- |
G1023 Heavy-Duty Table Saw |
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.DON’T OVERREACH. 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.
15.DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing and changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters, and the like.
16.REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure switch is in off position before plugging in.
17.USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Consult the owner’s manual for recommended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury.
18.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.
19.DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of the blade or cutter only.
20.NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
Additional Safety Instructions For Table Saws
1.ALWAYS use guard, splitter and anti-kick- back fingers on all ''through-sawing'' operations. Through-sawing operations are those when the blade cuts completely through the workpiece as in ripping or cross cutting.
2.ALWAYS hold the work firmly against the miter gauge or fence.
3.ALWAYS use a push-stick for ripping narrow stock. Refer to ripping applications on Page 23 of this manual, and Page 37 where pushstick use is covered in detail.
4.NEVER perform any operation ''free-hand'' which means using only your hands to support or guide the workpiece. Always use either the fence or the miter gauge to position and guide the work.
5.NEVER stand or have any part of your body in line with the path of the saw blade.
6.NEVER reach behind or over the blade with either hand for any reason.
7.MOVE the rip fence out of the way when cross cutting.
8.NEVER use the fence as a cut-off gauge when cross cutting.
9.NEVER attempt to free a stalled saw blade without first turning the saw OFF.
10.PROVIDE adequate support to the rear and sides of the saw table for wide or long workpieces.
11.AVOID KICKBACKS (work thrown back toward you) by keeping blade sharp, keeping rip fence parallel to the saw blade, keeping splitter and anti-kickback fingers and guard in place and operating, by not releasing work before it is pushed all the way past the saw blade, and by not ripping work that is twisted or warped or does not have a straight edge to guide along the fence.
12.AVOID awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the blade.

Clean up |
|
Site Considerations |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The table and other unpainted parts of the Model G1023 are coated with a waxy oil that protects them from corrosion during shipment. Remove the protective coating with mineral spirits and paper towels. Do not use gasoline or other petroleum based solvents because of their extremely low flash points. Do not use chlorine-based solvents – if you happen to splash some onto a painted surface, you’ll ruin the finish.
WARNING!
Follow the safety rules listed below when working with solvents:
1.Read and follow all directions and warnings on the solvent label.
2.Work only in a well ventilated area.
3.Do not work near any type of open flame (e.g., pilot lights, kerosene heaters, and so on).
4.DO NOT smoke while working with flammable material.
5.Paper towels from the cleaning process are extremely combustible. Dispose of waste towels so they do not create a fire hazard.
1.Floor Load: Your Model G1023 Table Saw represents a large weight load in a small footprint. Most commercial floors are suitable for the Model G1023. Some residential floors may require additional bracing to support both machine and operator.
2.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 Table Saw.
3.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.

Circuit Requirements |
|
Grounding |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Model G1023 Table Saw has one 3 HP motor. It has been pre-wired to operate at 220V, single phase operation and cannot be operated at 110V. The Model G1023 motor will safely draw about 18 amps at 220V. If you operate the table saw on any circuit that is already close to its capacity, it might blow a fuse or trip a circuit breaker. However, if an unusual load does not exist, and power failure still occurs, have the circuit inspected by a qualified electrician.
Circuit breakers/fuses: A 30 amp circuit breaker or fuse should be used with a 220V dedicated circuit. The general rule is to use the lightest breaker or fuse that will hold under regular loads. Circuit breakers or fuses that are rated higher may not adequately protect the motor.
The Model G1023 is not equipped with a plug. It will be necessary to connect a plug that is suitable for your 220V receptacle. Figure 1.
This equipment must be grounded. Please ensure that the Model G1023 is continuously grounded from the motor to the machine frame and then to a known ground. Verify that any existing electrical outlet and circuit you intend to plug into is actually grounded. If it is not, it will be necessary to run a separate 12 A.W.G. copper grounding wire from the outlet to a known ground. Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any three-pronged plug be removed.
CAUTION: Be sure that your particular electrical configuration complies with local and state codes. The best way to ensure compliance is to check with your local municipality or licensed electrician.

SECTION 3: ASSEMBLY
Beginning Assembly |
|
Hand Wheels |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Most of your Model G1023 Table Saw has been assembled at the factory, but some parts must be assembled or installed after delivery. We have organized the assembly process into steps. Please follow along in the order presented here.
Note: All die-cut metal parts have a sharp edge (called “flashing”) on them after they are formed. This is removed at the factory. Sometimes, though, a bit of flashing might escape inspection. Please examine the edges of all metal parts before handling them.
TOOLS REQUIRED: A high quality square and long straightedge plus common hand tools are necessary to assemble this machine. You will need a set of open and closed ended metric wrenches, a flat tipped screwdriver, Phillips screwdriver, dead blow hammer, and a 6" or 8" adjustable wrench.
The handle on the arbor tilting hand wheel has been installed backward for shipping.
Unscrew it and then reinstall it in the correct position. Figure 2.

Switch |
|
Extension Wings |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The magnetic switch comes prewired to the motor. However, you must mount the switch to the table saw body before it can be used. A bracket with screws to attach it is provided.
Figure 3.
Figure 3.
Inspect the extension wings for burrs or foreign material that may inhibit assembly. The mating edges of the wings and table must be clean, smooth, and flat. Use a wire brush or file if necessary to clean up the edges. It is possible to attach the extension wings to the table by yourself, but it is easier if someone else holds the wing in place while you insert the bolts.
1.Attach each wing to the table using the six 3⁄8" - 16 x 1 1⁄4" Hex Head Bolts and 3⁄8" Flat Washers provided. Get the wings reasonably flush with the table. Do not tighten the bolts.
2.Align the top of the wing flush with the table top directly above the front bolt and tighten the front bolt. The front surface of the extension wing should also be flush with the front surface of the table.
3.Raise or lower the rear of the extension wing until the middle of the wing is flush with the table top. Tighten the middle bolt.
4.Raise or lower the rear of the wing until the wing and table are flush. Tighten the bolt.
Any adjustment at this point should be very slight.
5.Re-check flushness at the front bolt and readjust if necessary.
6.Repeat steps 2-4 for the other extension wing.
7.Now, check the alignment of the table and both wings with a straight edge. The straightedge should run flat across both wings and the table top. Figure 4. If the straightedge contacts both wings and the table evenly, you are finished with this section. If it does not, continue to step 8.

Figure 4.
8.If the wing tilts down, remove the wing and stick layers of masking tape under each bolt near the bottom edge. Re-install the wing and check the flushness again.
9.If the wing tilts up, remove the wing and stick layers of masking tape over each bolt near the top edge. Re-install the wing and check the flushness again. Figure 5.
Guard Support Shaft
Install the guard support shaft before installing the blade. This will eliminate the risk of accidentally touching the sharp edges of the blade while working inside the saw cabinet.
1.Push the threaded end of the shaft through the hole in the back of the saw until the shoulder on the shaft stops it.
2.Secure the shaft with the hex nut provided.

The Model G1023 is not supplied with a blade. For a selection of blades, including dado sets, refer to the Grizzly catalog for selection, price and ordering information. To install the blade:
1.Remove the arbor nut and outside arbor flange from inside the blade cavity. Figure 7. The arbor nut and arbor are left hand threaded.
2.Slide the saw blade over the arbor. Ensure that the blade teeth point toward you when standing at the front of the saw.
3.Use the arbor wrench provided with the saw to tighten the arbor nut and secure the blade. Wedge a block of wood in the teeth to keep the blade from turning when tightening the nut. Be sure the arbor flanges are on either side of the blade.
4.When removing the blade, use the same block of wood to wedge the blade and the nut will come off easily.
Figure 7.
1.Slip the blade guard/splitter over the mounting bolts. Figure 8. The washers should be between the bolt head and the slots. Tighten the bolts to secure the blade guard/splitter.
Figure 8.
2.Set a combination square against the face of the guard. Slightly rotate the rear bracket to adjust the face of the blade guard perpendicular to the table top. Figure 9.
