Additional Safety Instructions For Bandsaws
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.
6. Always feed stock evenly and smoothly.
Do not force or twist blade while cutting,
especially when sawing small radii.
7. This machine is not designed to cut metal
or other material except wood.
8. When replacing blades, make sure teeth
face down towards the table. The force of
the cut is always down.
9. Habits – good and bad – are hard to break.
Develop good habits in your shop and
safety will become second-nature to you.
10. Do not manually stop or slow blade after
turning the saw off.
1. Do not operate your bandsaw with dull or
badly worn blades. Dull blades require
more effort to use and are difficult to control. Inspect blades before each use.
2. Never position fingers or thumbs in line
with the cut. Serious personal injury could
occur.
3. Always support round stock in a V-block.
4. Ensure that the machine sits firmly on the
floor before use. Any “wobbles” must be
corrected by shimming or blocking before
operation.
5. Make sure blade has been properly ten-
sioned.
Like all power tools, there is danger associated with the Model G1052 9" Bandsaw. Use
the tool with respect and caution to lessen
the possibility of mechanical damage or
operator injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, serious
injury may occur.
Operating this equipment has the potential
for flying debris to cause eye injury.
Always wear safety glasses or goggles
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).

110V Operation
SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
The Model G1052 has a 1/2 HP motor which operates at 110V. It includes a complete cordset with
a grounded plug that’s made for use with a
grounded domestic 110V outlet.
The G1052 motor will safely draw about 8 amps
at 110V under load. If you operate the bandsaw
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.
The Model G1052 should be fused at 15 amps.
Fusing at amperage ratings higher than 15 amps
will not adequately protect the motor. You are
cautioned that equipment that is returned to us
for service that shows evidence of being overfused will be repaired or replaced totally at the
customer’s expense, regardless of the present
warranty status.
Fusing
Figure 1. Recommended outlet/plug configuration.
If you find it necessary to use an extension cord
with the Model G1052, make sure the cord is
rated Hard Service (grade S) or better. Refer to
the chart in the standard safety instructions to
determine the minimum gauge for the extension
cord. The extension cord must also contain a
ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or
replace extension cords when they become worn
or damaged.
Extension Cords
Grounding
This equipment must be grounded, there is
a risk of severe electrical shock. 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 14
A.W.G. copper grounding wire from the outlet
to a known ground. Consult a qualified electrician if you are uncertain of the grounding of
your electrical system. Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any
three-pronged plug be removed. Serious
injury may occur.
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
which has an equipment grounding conductor.
The outlet must be properly installed and grounded in accordance with local codes. Refer to
Figure 1 for the proper outlet and plug configura-
tion.

Unpacking
The bandsaw is shipped from the factory in a
carefully packed carton. If you find the machine to
be damaged after you’ve signed for delivery and
the truck and driver are already gone, you will
need to file a freight claim with the carrier. Save
the containers and all packing materials for
inspection by the carrier or their agent. Without
the packing materials, filing a freight claim can be
difficult. If you need advice regarding this situation, please call us immediately.
When you are completely satisfied with the condition of your shipment, you should inventory its
parts.
The G1052 is a heavy machine with a shipping weight of 100 lbs. DO NOT over-exert
yourself while unpacking or moving your
machine – get assistance. In the event that
your bandsaw must be moved up or down a
flight of stairs, be sure that the stairs are
capable of supporting the combined weight
of people and the machine. Serious personal injury may occur.
Parts Inventory
NOTICE
Save all containers and packing materials
until you are satisfied that your bandsaw
has arrived in good condition. Freight company adjusters will want to inspect those
materials in the event that a freight claim
must be made.
When you are completely satisfied with the condition of your shipment, you should inventory its
parts.
With all the parts removed from the container,
you should have:
• Bandsaw Unit with Blade
• Miter Gauge
• Table
• Fence
If anything is missing, call or write to the service
department listed earlier in this section.

G1052 9" Bandsaw
Clean Up
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy
oil to protect it from corrosion during shipment.
Remove this protective coating with with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser. Avoid
chlorine-based solvents as they may damage
painted surfaces should they come in contact.
Always follow the usage instructions on the product you choose for clean up.
Some die-cut metal parts may have sharp
edges (called “flashing”) on them after they
are formed. Please examine the edges of all
die-cut metal parts before handling them.
Failure to do so could result in injury.
Site Considerations
BENCH LOAD
Your G1052 Bandsaw represents a moderately
large weight load in a small footprint. Most commercial or home shop benches should be sufficient to carry the weight of the G1052. If you
question the strength of your workbench, you can
opt to reinforce it, or consider placing the bandsaw on a freestanding bench like Grizzly’s Shop
Fox®tool table.
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. Be sure to allow yourself sufficient room to safely run your machines in
any foreseeable operation.
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
combined motor amp loads. Outlets should be
located near each machine so power or extension cords are not obstructing high-traffic areas.
Be sure to observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.
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.
Many of the solvents commonly used to
clean machinery can be highly flammable,
and toxic when inhaled or ingested. Always
work in well-ventilated areas far from potential ignition sources when dealing with solvents. Use care when disposing of waste
rags and towels to be sure they do not create fire or environmental hazards. Keep children and animals safely away when cleaning and assembling this machine.
Do not use gasoline or other petroleumbased solvents to remove this protective
coating. These products generally have low
flash points which makes them extremely
flammable. A risk of explosion and burning
exists if these products are used. Serious
personal injury may occur.

G1052 9" Bandsaw
Blade Adjustments
Blade tension and tracking are two of the most
important factors affecting bandsaw performance. When the blade is properly tensioned and
tracked, blade life will be extended, cuts will be
straighter, and the bandsaw will run more
smoothly. In order to optimize tension and tracking, the two wheels must be co-planar (or in the
same plane).
Follow the steps outlined here in the order presented for best results: (A) adjust tension, (B)
check co-planarity, (C) adjust co-planarity (D)
check tracking, and (E) adjust tracking.
Figure 4. Checking blade deflection.
Blades are extremely sharp. Use added care
when making adjustments that require
touching the blade with your fingers. Failure
to do so could result in serious personal
injury.
Tension
With the exception of those procedures
which require test running the machine, DO
NOT attempt adjustments without ensuring
that the machine is turned off and disconnected from its power source. Serious personal injury may occur.
SECTION 5: ADJUSTMENTS
1. The power must be off with the saw
unplugged. Lower the upper guide assembly
all the way by loosening the guide post
securing knob (#31) and lowering the
assembly.
2. Press, with moderate pressure, on the face
of the blade with your thumb. Figure 4.
3. The blade should flex no more than
1
/2" with
moderate pressure.
4. If it flexes too little or too much, turn the ten-
sion adjustment knob (#2) to modify the tension until it is correct.
If the tension seems correct, make the other
adjustments to the saw and test run it. Re-adjust
tension if the blade does not cut correctly.
G1052 9" Bandsaw -11-
1. Adjust the tracking knob (#23) so that upper
wheel is not angled.
2. Set a straightedge against the sides of the
wheels. It should fully extend across both of
them. Figure 5.
3. The straightedge must touch each of the out-
side rims on both wheels. If the straightedge
does not touch both wheels evenly, use a
small ruler to measure the distance that the
lower or upper wheel is offset from the long
straightedge.
If the straightedge already touches the wheels
evenly, move on to the tracking procedures.
Figure 5. Checking blade co-planarity.
Co-Planarity
2. Add washers behind the upper or lower
wheels as needed.
3. Remove washers behind the UPPER
WHEEL ONLY.
4. Adjust parallelism (i.e., if the middle of the
wheels are co-planar, but the sides are not).
Figure 6.
Figure 6. Wheel alignment possibilities.
5. Loosen the four cap screws (#10) that
secure the two sliding gibs (#9) to the body
behind the upper wheel. Figure 7.
6. Adjust the setscrews (#11) in or out very
slightly (over adjustment will cause the tension rod to bind) to make the upper wheel
parallel with the lower wheel.
7. Tighten the four cap screws and check
wheel co-planarity.
8. Repeat 1- 4 for further adjustment if needed.
The distance you measured with the small ruler
is the distance that the wheels must be corrected.
The following steps allow you to align the wheels.
If one step works, immediately proceed to the
tracking adjustment instructions.
1. Turn the tracking knob to adjust the angle of
the upper wheel.

Tracking Blade Guides
Rotate the upper wheel several turns by hand.
Watch the lateral movement of the blade on the
tire. The blade will move back and forth slightly
until it finds its equilibrium position. If the blade is
tracking correctly, it will stay on both tires in one
location, not necessarily in the center of the
wheels. If the blade will not stay in one place on
the tires, check that the wheels are co-planar. If
they are co-planar, adjust the tracking, as follows:
1. Disconnect the bandsaw from the power
source and adjust the upper and lower guide
bearings away from the blade. See Blade
Guide adjustment section.
2. Decrease the tension slightly before adjust-
ing tracking. Tracking adjustment will automatically increase the tension.
3. Loosen the lock knob (#22) on the tracking
control knob. Turn the tracking control knob
clockwise or counter-clockwise while turning
the upper wheel by hand until the blade
stays in one position. Figure 8.
4. Re-tighten the lock knob and check the
tracking. Repeat step 3 as needed.

2. Shift the guide post bracket in the desired
direction.
3. Re-tighten the two bolts and check your
results by sliding the guide post up and down
and noting whether the bearings change
their distances from the blade. It may be
necessary to re-adjust the guide bearings. If
the guide bearings do not maintain gap tolerance on each side of the blade as you
raise and lower the guide post, repeat steps
1 and 2.
If the guide post bracket will not give enough
adjustment, you will need to shift the blade over
slightly.
To shift the blade:
1. Loosen tension on the blade.
2. Move the upper wheel left or right as need-
ed. There is about
5
/16" of movement.
3. Re-adjust the tension. This will secure the
wheel.
4. Repeat guide post bracket adjustments.

SECTION 6: OPERATIONS
Overview
The bandsaw is one of the most versatile wood
cutting tools in the shop. It is capable of performing many different cutting functions including, but
not limited to:
STRAIGHT CUTS
1. Miters
2. Angles
3. Compound Angles
4. Resawing
IRREGULAR CUTS
1. Simple and Complex Curves
2. Duplicate Parts
3. Circles
4. Beveled Curves
Although you can perform many types of straight
cuts such as angling and mitering on the bandsaw, they will not be as precise as on a table saw.
Also, since the blade is flexible, the resulting cut
is somewhat rougher than one performed on a
table saw. However, just as a table saw is suited
to precision straight cuts and miters, the bandsaw
excels when resawing and when cutting irregular
shapes. A properly adjusted and tuned up bandsaw is also safer to operate than most other saws
and is capable of performing many sawing functions with ease and accuracy.
A common fault when using a bandsaw is blaming the saw for not performing up to expectations.
Many factors contribute to a bandsaw’s performance. Using the wrong kind of blade or a poor
quality blade usually results in unsatisfactory performance. Misuse of the saw or using incorrect
sawing techniques can be unsafe as well as
result in frustration and poor cuts. Remember, the
blade does the cutting with the operator’s guidance. Replace blades as necessary and make
adjustments periodically to keep the saw always
running in top condition.
Do not force the material against the blade, use
light even pressure. Light contact with the blade
will permit easier line following and prevent
undue friction, heat and work-hardening along
the back edge of the blade.
Avoid twisting the blade by trying to turn sharp
corners. Remember, you must saw around corners.
Test Run
Once you have completed the instructions for
assembly and adjustments, you are ready to give
the Model G1052 its first test run.
1. Re-connect the Model G1052 to its power
source.
2. Keeping one finger on the OFF switch to be
ready for a quick shut off in the case of problems, turn on the bandsaw.
3. If there is no visual or audible evidence of
problems, use a piece of scrap wood to test
the blade.
4. If the blade does not cut properly, review the
steps in the adjustment section. If the blade
appears to be working well, turn off the
machine and continue reading the manual.
NOTICE
Set the top guide assembly just above the
top of the work at all times.

G1052 9" Bandsaw
A bandsaw blade is a delicate piece of steel that
is subjected to tremendous stress. Be sure you
use quality blades of the proper width for the various types of cutting operations.
Always use the widest blade possible for the
workpiece you are cutting. Use narrow blades
only for sawing small, abrupt curves and for fine,
delicate work. Bandsaw blades measuring 64"
can be purchased welded, set, sharpened, and
ready-for-use from most saw shops. In addition to
the standard
1
/2" blade, others in widths of 3/16",
1
/4", and
3
/8" are available. See Figure 15 for typ-
ical bandsaw blade characteristics. Please refer
to our current catalog for prices and ordering
information.
Always select high-quality saw blades and
choose the right blade for the job. Poor quality
blades and improper use are often the cause of
premature blade failure.
Many conditions may cause a bandsaw blade to
break. Blade breakage is sometimes unavoidable
since it is the natural result of the large stresses
that bandsaw blades are subjected to.
Blade breakage is also due to avoidable causes.
Avoidable breakage is most often the result of
poor care or judgement on the part of the operator when mounting or adjusting the blade or support guides. The most common causes of blade
breakage are: (1) faulty alignment and adjustment of the guides; (2) forcing or twisting a wide
blade around a curve or short radius; (3) feeding
too fast; (4) tooth dullness or absence of sufficient set; (5) excessive tension; (6) upper blade
guide assembly set too high above the workpiece; (7) using a blade with a lumpy or improperly finished weld; and, (8) continuously running
the bandsaw when not in use.
Blade Information
Ripping, or resawing, is the process of cutting a
board into two or more thinner boards. The maximum board width that can be resawn is limited by
the maximum cutting height of the bandsaw.
Maximum cutting height for this bandsaw is 4
1
/8".
The G1052 bandsaw is capable of ripping, provided the saw is set up properly. Use common
sense when ripping. Attempting to rip too wide or
too dense a board may put excessive strain on
the blade and be dangerous.
The important consideration when ripping is
blade selection. Generally, the wider blade, the
better. In most applications, a hook or skip tooth
style will be sufficient. Also, since most ripped
lumber will be planed or sanded smooth, you can
choose blades with fewer teeth-per-inch. While
blades with fewer teeth-per-inch produce rougher
cuts, these types of blades offer larger gullet
capacities for clearing sawdust, less heat buildup,
and yield more horsepower per tooth.
Ripping
1. The bandsaw must be adjusted correctly.
See Blade Adjustment Section.
2. The table must be square to the blade. See
Table Adjustment Section.
3. Use the widest blade available. The blade
must also be in good condition.
4. Use a fence to guide work.
5. Draw a reference line on the edge of the
board.
6. Support ends of the board if necessary.
7. Feed work slowly and evenly.
G1052 9" Bandsaw -19-
Cutting Curves
When cutting curves, simultaneously feed and
turn the stock carefully so that the blade follows
the layout line without being twisted. If a curve is
so abrupt that it is necessary to repeatedly back
up and cut a new kerf, use either a narrower
blade or a blade with more set. A blade with more
set can cut relatively tighter radii, though the cut
is usually rougher than cuts produced by a blade
with medium set.
Always make short cuts first, then proceed to the
longer cuts. Relief cuts will also reduce the
chance that the blade will be pinched or twisted.
Relief cuts are cuts made through the waste portion of the workpiece and are stopped at the layout line. As you cut along the layout line, waste
wood is released from the workpiece, alleviating
any pressure on the back of the blade. Relief cuts
also make backing the workpiece out easier, if
needed.
Stacked Cuts
One of the benefits of a bandsaw is its ability to
cut multiple copies of a particular shape by stacking a number of workpieces together.
Before making stacked cuts, it is essential to
ensure that both the table and the blade are properly adjusted to 90°. Otherwise, any error will be
compounded with each piece cut from the top to
the bottom of the stack.
To complete a stacked cut:
1. Align your pieces from top to bottom to
ensure that each piece has adequate scrap
to provide a clean, unhampered cut.
2. Using brads in the waste portion of each
piece, secure all the pieces together.
3. Lay out the shape you intend to cut on the
face of the top piece.
4. Make relief cuts perpendicular to the outline
of your intended shape in areas where
changes in blade direction could strain the
woodgrain or cause the blade kerf to bind.
5. Cut the stack of pieces as though you were
cutting a single piece. Follow you layout line
with the blade kerf on the waste side of your
line.

Crosscutting
In addition to its ability to rip lumber, the bandsaw
is capable of crosscutting lumber as thick as 4
1
/8".
Use the miter gauge when making straight crosscuts to push your workpiece through the blade.
When making angled crosscuts, adjust the miter
gauge to the angle you desire and use it to guide
your workpiece along the blade.
If your workpiece is cylindrical, you will need a Vgroove jig to support the material you wish to cut.

SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE
Shielded and pre-lubricated ball bearings require
no lubrication for the life of the bearings. All bearings are standard sizes and replacements can be
purchased from our parts department or your
local bearing supply store.
As for other items on this machine, such as
adjustment controls, an occasional “shot” of light
oil is just about all that is necessary. Before
applying, however, wipe off any sawdust with a
clean cloth or towel and spray on the lubricant.
Make a habit of inspecting your bandsaw 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. Any other condition that could hamper the
safe operation of this machine.
The table and other non-painted surfaces on the
Model G1052 should be protected against rust
and pitting. Wiping the saw clean after every use
ensures that moisture from wood dust isn’t
allowed to trap moisture against bare metal surfaces.
Most experienced woodworkers recommend
using automotive paste wax on exposed steel
and cast iron surfaces. The wax provides a layer
of protection, as well as reducing friction between
lumber and the table, making cuts faster and
smoother.
Avoid waxes that contain silicone or other synthetic ingredients. These materials can find their
way into lumber that’s being worked, and can
make staining and finishing difficult. If you use
paste wax, make sure that it’s 100% Carnauba
wax.
DO NOT make adjustments or attempt maintenance procedures while the Model G1052
is running. Ensure that the switch is off,
power is disconnected and moving parts
have stopped before making adjustments.
Failure to comply may result in serious personal injury.
