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 is safer than using your hand and frees both hands to operate tool.
13. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper foot-
ing 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 mag-
netic 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. MANY WOODWORKING TOOLS CAN “KICKBACK” THE WORKPIECE toward
the operator if not handled properly. Know what conditions can create “kickback” and know how to avoid them. Read the manual accompanying the machine thoroughly.
18. 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.
19. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT­TENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Do not
leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
20. 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.
21. NEVER ALLOW UNSUPERVISED OR UNTRAINED PERSONNEL TO OPER­ATE THE MACHINE. Make sure any
instructions you give in regards to the operation of the machine are approved, correct, safe, and clearly understood.

Additional Safety Instructions For Bandsaws
7. ALWAYS FEED STOCK EVENLY AND SMOOTHLY. Do not force or twist blade
while cutting, especially when sawing small radii.
8. THIS MACHINE IS NOT DESIGNED TO CUT METAL or other material except
wood.
9. BLADE SHOULD BE RUNNING AT FULL SPEED before beginning a cut.
10. DO NOT MANUALLY STOP OR SLOW BLADE after turning the saw off. Allow it to
come to a complete stop before you leave it unattended.
11. ALL INSPECTIONS, ADJUSTMENTS, AND MAINTENANCE ARE TO BE DONE WITH THE POWER OFF and the plug
pulled from the outlet. Wait for all moving parts to come to a complete stop.
12. HABITS – GOOD AND BAD – ARE HARD TO BREAK. Develop good habits in your
shop and safety will become second­nature to you.
13. IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENC­ING DIFFICULTIES PERFORMING THE INTENDED OPERATION, STOP USING THE BANDSAW! Then contact our service
department or ask a qualified expert how the operation should be performed.
1. DO NOT OPERATE 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. DO NOT OPERATE THIS BANDSAW WITHOUT WHEEL, PULLEY, AND BLADE GUARDS IN PLACE.
4. WHEN REPLACING BLADES, make sure
teeth face down toward the table. The force of the cut is always down. Make sure the blade is properly tensioned.
5. CUTS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FULLY SUPPORTED by the table or some type of
support fixture. Always support round stock in a V-block.
6. DO NOT BACK WORKPIECE AWAY from
the blade while the saw is running. Plan your cuts so you always cut out of the wood. If you need to back the work out, turn the bandsaw off and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop. Do not twist or put excessive stress on the blade while backing work away.
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.
Like all power tools, there is danger associ­ated with bandsaws. 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.
G1073/G1073Z 16'' Bandsaw -5-
220V Operation
The Model G1073/G1073Z Bandsaw is supplied with a dual-voltage 110V/220V motor, prewired for 220V operation. Under normal use, the motor draws approximately 12 amps at 220V. We rec­ommend a 15 amp circuit breaker or slow-blow fuse for 220V. This should be satisfactory for nor­mal use, while providing enough protection against damage caused by an overloaded circuit. If frequent circuit failures occur when using the bandsaw, contact our service department or your local electrical contractor.
The Model G1073/G1073Z Bandsaw is not sup­plied with a power plug. We recommend using a NEMA-style L6-15 plug and outlet similar to the
one shown in Figure 1. You may also “hard-wire”
the bandsaw directly to your panel, provided you place a disconnect near the machine.
110V Operation
If 110 volt operation is desired, refer to the wiring diagram in the back of this manual. Under normal use, the motor draws approximately 24 amps at 110V. We recommend using a circuit breaker and wires rated for 30 amps. This should be satisfac­tory for normal use, while providing enough pro­tection against damage caused by power surges. If frequent circuit failures occur when using the bandsaw, contact our service department or your local electrical contractor.
The Model G1073/G1073Z is not supplied with a power plug. It will be necessary to supply your own standard 110V, 30 Amp grounded plug and
receptacle as shown in Figure 2.
SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
Figure 1. Typical 220V 3-prong plug and outlet.
We do not recommend the use of extension cords on 220V equipment. It is much better to arrange the placement of your equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate the need for exten­sion cords. Should it be necessary to use an extension, make sure the cord is rated Hard Service (Grade S) or better. Refer to the chart on page 3 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
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.
-6- G1073/G1073Z 16" Bandsaw
Figure 2.
Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any three-pronged plug be removed. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Check with a qualified electrician or one of our service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if you are in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3­prong grounding type plugs and 3-hole recepta­cles that accept the tool’s plug, similar to that in
Figure 2.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cords imme­diately.
Grounding
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment grounding conductor. A plug with a grounding pin must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Improper connections of the electrical-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with green or green and yellow striped insulation is the electrical grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal.
We have covered some basic electrical requirements for the safe operation of your bandsaw. These requirements are not nec­essarily comprehensive. You must be sure that your particular electrical configuration complies with local and state codes. Ensure compliance by checking with your local municipality or a licensed electrician.
This equipment must be grounded. Verify that any existing electrical outlet and circuit you intend to plug into is actually grounded. Under no cir­cumstances should the grounding pin from any three-pronged plug be removed. Serious injury may occur.

Clean up Site Considerations
1. Floor Load: Your Model G1073/G1073Z 16''
Bandsaw represents a large weight load in a small footprint. Most commercial floors are suitable for the Model G1073/G1073Z. Some residential floors may require additional build up 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 bandsaw.
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.
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. Avoid chlorine­based 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.
Do not use gasoline or other petroleum-based solvents to clean with. They have a low flash point which makes them extremely flammable. A risk of explosion and burning exists if these products are used. Serious personal injury may occur.
Make your shop “child safe.” Ensure that your workplace is inaccessible to children by closing and locking all entrances when you are away. Never allow visitors in your shop when assembling, adjusting, or operating equipment.
Do not smoke while using solvents. A risk of explo­sion or fire exists and may result in serious personal injury.
Many of the solvents commonly used to clean machinery can be toxic when inhaled or ingest­ed. Always work in well­ventilated 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.

SECTION 4: ASSEMBLY
Figure 3. Attaching motor mount bracket.
Figure 4. Motor attached to motor mount bracket.
Stand (G1073)
The stand assembly on the Model G1073 is shown here. If you have the Model G1073Z, fol­low the same instructions for mounting the motor, bandsaw to stand, and the anti-vibration pads. Disregard the steps that do not apply.
To ease assembly, build the stand upside down on a bench, then place it upright on the floor. Do not fully tighten any of the bolts until directed to do so in the next section.
Sometimes sheet metal parts have a tendency to ''spring'' after they are formed. For this reason, you may need to use a little extra force to align holes to insert bolts.
2. Position the motor so the pulley is over the
rectangular hole in the stand top as shown in
Figure 4. Secure with four (4)
5
16"-18 x 1"
carriage bolts,
5
16" washers, and 5⁄16"-18 nuts
provided.
To assemble the stand:
1. Flip the top of the stand upside-down.
Position the motor mounting bracket so that it sits over the four (4) evenly spaced holes in the top. Bolt the bracket to the stand with two (2)
3
8"-16 x 1" hex bolts, 3⁄8" washers,
and
3
8"-16 nuts provided. Hand tighten for
now so your assembly looks like Figure 3.
Keep loose clothing rolled up and out of the way of machinery and keep hair pulled back.
Wear safety glasses dur­ing the entire assembly process. Failure to com­ply may result in serious personal injury.
Disconnect power to the machine when perform­ing any maintenance or assembly. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.

Figure 5. Legs and braces attached to top.
3. Attach the four (4) legs to the inside of the
stand top and the four horizontal braces to
the inside of the legs as shown in Figure 5.
Use the
5
16"-18 x 5⁄8" carriage bolts, 5⁄16"-18
nuts, and
5
16" washers provided. The two shorter braces are slightly wider than the longer braces. When attaching the braces to the legs, the longer braces rest inside the two flanges of the shorter braces. The square holes in the legs are angled to accommodate the angle of the legs.
4. Attach the four (4) rubber feet to the legs.
Use four (4)
5
16"-18 x 1" hex head bolts, four
(4)
5
16" flat washers and four (4) 5⁄16"-18 nuts provided. The bolts should go through the pad first and then through the feet. Tighten carefully so you do not deform the rubber feet.
5. Slide the motor pulley onto the motor shaft
and tighten the setscrew down. The small end of the pulley should be near the motor.
6. Flip the stand/motor assembly rightside-up
on the floor, but do not tighten the stand hardware at this time.

1. Safely lift the bandsaw onto the stand.
Ensure that the bandsaw step pulley is posi­tioned over the hole in the stand.
2. Attach the bandsaw to the stand with four (4)
3
8"-16 x 2" hex bolts, four (4) 3⁄8"-16 hex nuts,
and eight (8)
3
8" washers provided. The bolts on the left side should go through the motor mount bracket. Hand tighten for now.
3. Position the bandsaw on the stand so that
the legs are evenly balanced and the stand is symmetrical in appearance, rather than lopsided. When the stand is positioned cor­rectly on all four sides, tighten all the stand nuts to secure it in place.
4. Working from the bottom up, tighten all stand
bolts, motor mount bracket to the stand top (leave the motor bolts loose for now), and the bandsaw mounting bolts at the holes
shown in Figure 6.
The bandsaw (without stand and motor) weighs approxi­mately 325 lbs. Use a lifting device or get help from peo­ple who can safely lift that much weight. Serious per­sonal injury may occur if this warning is ignored.

Figure 10. Aligning V-belt pulleys.
Pulley alignment and belt tension should now be adjusted simultaneously.
1. Situate the motor so the V-grooves on the
motor pulley approximately line up with the V-grooves on the three-step pulley. You may need to loosen the motor mount bracket
bolts shown in Figure 9A to position the
motor properly. Tighten the mount bracket to the stand before moving on to the next step. Leave the motor mount bolts loose.
Figure 9B. Pulley deflection w/moderate pressure.
Figure 9A. Motor mount bolt locations.
If the pulleys will not align by moving the motor only, loosen the bandsaw mounting bolts and position the bandsaw so the step pulley aligns with the motor pulley. Leave the motor mount bolts loose.
2. Slide the motor up or down to achieve prop-
er V-belt tension. You should be able to deflect the V-belt about
3
4" at its midpoint
(see Figure 9B) using moderate finger pres­sure. Be careful not to change the lateral
position of the motor and move the pulleys out of alignment. Tighten the motor mount bolts.

Fence
The mounting holes in the rails are not centered on the length of the rails. This way, you can mount the rails so that maximum fence travel will be greater on one side or the other.
To mount the rails:
1. Secure the fence rails to the table with the
four (4)
1
4"-20 x 11⁄4" cap screws and spacers
provided (Figure 13).
Rail Spacers
There are two ways to remove the fence:
1. Remove the blade so the fence slides off
the rails.
2. Dismount the rails by removing the cap
screws.
NOTICE
When the fence is to the left of the blade, the fence must be positioned near the cen­ter of the table in order to open the lower wheel cover.

Blade Tension
Blade Tracking
SECTION 5: ADJUSTMENTS
To adjust the tension:
1. Loosen the upper and lower guide blocks
and lower the upper guide block down to the table. With moderate tension already on the blade, turn the bandsaw ON.
2. Release the tension one quarter of a turn at
a time. Do this very slowly. When you see the bandsaw blade start to flutter, stop decreasing the tension.
3. Now, slowly increase the tension until the
blade stops fluttering. Tighten the tension one quarter of a turn.
There are two ways to track a bandsaw blade:
Center Tracking and Coplanar Tracking.
Center Tracking is the fastest and easiest, but not the most precise.
Center Tracking:
1. Disconnect the bandsaw from the power
source and adjust the upper and lower guide assemblies away from the blade. Refer to
Page 18 for adjustment details.
2. Loosen the lock collar on the tracking control
knob shown in Figure 17. Turn the tracking
control knob clockwise/counterclockwise while turning the upper wheel by hand until the blade stays centered on the rubber tire.
Keep loose clothing rolled up and out of the way of machinery and keep hair pulled back.
Wear safety glasses dur­ing the entire adjust­ments process. Failure to comply may result in serious personal injury.
Disconnect power to the machine when perform­ing any maintenance or assembly. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.
If the tension seems correct, turn the bandsaw OFF and make the other adjustments, and test run. If the blade does not cut properly, the tension may be incorrect. Readjust the tension. New blades often stretch with use. However, it helps to always remove the tension from the blade when not in use.

Adjustment
Knobs
The support bearings back-up the blade during
the sawing operation. To adjust the support
bearings:
1. Loosen guide blocks and loosen the
setscrew that holds the guide block assem­bly to the guide post. Remove the guide block assembly.
2. Loosen the thumbscrew that secures the
support bearing shaft and unscrew the adjustment knob that controls the support
bearing shaft. See Figures 18A/B for loca-
tions.
3. Remove the support bearing shaft from the
guide block assembly. Rotate the the shaft so the blade will ride off-center against the
support bearing as shown in Figure 18B.
Install the shaft, tighten the mounting setscrew and replace the adjustment cap.
4. Turn the adjustment cap so that the upper
and lower support bearings are approxi­mately .016" (thickness of a dollar bill x 4) behind the blade. Tighten the thumbscrews.
5. To adjust the lower support bearing, remove
the lower guide block assembly by taking out the two setscrews that mount it to the band­saw body. Make the same adjustments described in steps 2-4 and mount the guide block assembly back to the bandsaw body.

Table Stop
1. Loosen the star knobs under the table and
the checknut securing the stop.
2. Raise the upper blade guide assembly and
place a 6" machinist’s square on the table
against the blade as shown in Figure 20.
Notice how far out of square your table is and approximate this distance by adjusting the positive stop up or down. Turning the positive stop counterclockwise will raise it and turning clockwise will lower it. Adjust the positive stop so the table will stop at a 90° angle (square) to the blade.
3. Lock the positive stop by tightening the
checknut. Do not let the stop turn while tight­ening the checknut. Tighten the star knobs. Set the angle pointer to zero on the gauge.
Figure 19. Guide block location of controls.
Guide Blocks
The guide blocks ensure that the blade is not
pushed too far laterally. Perform steps 1-4 for both upper and lower guide blocks. To adjust the
guide blocks:
1. Loosen the thumbscrew securing the guide block shaft shown in Figure 19.
2. Turn the adjustment nut so that the front of
the guide blocks are just behind the gullet line (the hollow points) of the blade. Tighten the thumbscrew.
3. Loosen the guide block thumbscrews and
adjust the gap between the blocks and the blade to .004" (about the same thickness as
a dollar bill). See Figure 19.
4. Tighten the thumbscrews.
4. A stop cap covers the positive stop. A pre-
determined thickness in the end of this cap will automatically allow the table to tilt toward the column of the saw 10
°
when this cap is
removed as shown Figure 21.
Always disconnect power to the machine when making adjust­ments. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.
The positive stop under the table allows you to repeatedly square up the table after adjusting the table tilt.
To adjust this positive stop so the table will return perpendicular (90°) to the blade after angle cutting:
-20- G1073/G1073Z 16" Bandsaw
Table Tilt
To tilt the table:
1. Loosen the two star knobs below the trun- nions shown in Figure 22.
2. Tilt the table to the desired angle. Refer to
the angle gauge.
3. Tighten the star knobs.
Table Parallelism
To position the blade line parallel to the miter slot:
1. Ensure that the bandsaw is not connected to
a power source, and install the widest blade available.
2. Loosen the 6 bolts securing the trunnions to
the table OR loosen the 3 trunnion support mounting bolts securing the trunnion support
to the bandsaw. Leave the star knobs tight. Figure 22 shows the location for these con-
trols.
3. Lay a straightedge against the left side of the
blade so that the straightedge touches the front and back side of the blade.
4. With a fine ruler, measure the distance from
the straightedge to the edge of the miter slot. This measurement should be taken at both the front and back of the table. If both mea-
surements are the same, proceed to step 6.
5. Rotate the table in the desired direction until
the two measurements at the front and back are even.

Blade Changes
To remove the blade:
1. Release tension on the blade by turning the
tension control knob counterclockwise.
2. Remove the table insert and table pin.
3. Adjust upper and lower guide blocks away
from the blade.
4. Put on leather gloves to protect your hands
from the sharp teeth of the blade.
5. Open the upper and lower wheel covers and
slide the blade off both wheels. Use caution­the blades are sharp!
6. Rotate the blade 90° so it will slide through the slot in the table as shown in Figure 23.
When removing or installing wide blades, it may be convenient to completely remove the upper and lower guide blocks. Be sure to replace them
before cutting. To replace the blade:
1. Slide the blade through the table slot, ensur-
ing that the teeth are pointing down toward the table.
If the teeth will not point downward in any ori­entation, the blade is inside out. Put on heavy gloves, remove the blade, and twist it inside out.
Wear gloves and safety goggles when han­dling blades. Coiled blades spring open as they are uncoiled and could cause deep cuts or lacerations.
2. Slip the blade through the upper and lower
guides, and mount it over the upper and lower wheels.
3. Apply tension, then check and adjust track-
ing.
4. Adjust the upper and lower guide blocks and
support bearings.
5. Close the wheel covers and latch them.
6. Replace the table insert and table pin, being
sure not to use excessive force.
Always disconnect power to the machine when changing blades. Failure to do this may result in serious person­al injury.

To adjust the guide post bracket:
1. Loosen the two bracket bolts (shown in Figure 25A) securing the guide post bracket
to the body casting.
2. Shift the guide post bracket in the desired
direction to center the blade between the blade guide bracket.
3. Tighten the two hex bolts and check your
results by sliding the guide post up and down. If the post is correct, the blade will remain centered in the blade guide brackets.
4. Repeat Steps 1-3 as needed.
If the guide post bracket will not adjust enough, shift the blade slightly.

4. Note where the blade is in the guide block
holder. It should be roughly centered. If it is not centered, shift the eccentric at the bot-
tom of the guide post (shown in Figure 24B).
This is done by loosening the setscrew on the guide block assembly and pulling it off the guide post. The setscrew on the back of the guide post will allow you to loosen the eccentric so you can center the assembly to the blade.
5. Slide the guide post all the way down and
lock it in position. If the blade appears to be closer to one side of the guide block holder than when the guide post was all the way up, adjust the guide post bracket.
Guide Post
The guide post is adjustable so the guide blocks will stay aligned with the blade when the guide post is raised or lowered.
To check guide post alignment:
1. Adjust blade tension and tracking.
2. Loosen the guide post securing knob and
slide the guide post all the way up. Lock it in position by tightening the securing knob
shown in Figure 24A.

To shift the blade:
1. Loosen the tension on the blade.
2. Remove the spacers (See Figure 25B)
behind the upper wheel in the desired direc­tion. Move the upper wheel left or right as needed, and replace the spacers on the opposite side from where they were removed.
3. Readjust the tension. This will secure the
wheel.
4. Repeat guide post bracket adjustments.
Figure 25B. Upper wheel spacer.
Fence locking is controlled by the lever on the front of the fence. When the lever is pushed down, it locks the front and rear of the fence to the guide rails. The end of the fence nearest to the operator should lock before the rear.
3. Using a wrench, turn the clamp shoe hex bolt
to adjust the clamping pressure.
4. Push the locking lever down to test the
clamping pressure. The fence should be tightly clamped to the front rail when the lever is pushed all the way down.
5. Repeat steps 3-4 until the fence clamps cor-
rectly. Tighten the checknut. Be careful not to turn the clamp shoe hex bolt or the clamp­ing pressure will be altered.
To adjust the rear clamping pressure:
1. Back out the rear clamp adjusting screw sev-
eral turns and put the locking lever in the
locked position as shown in Figure 27.
2. Turn the rear clamp adjusting screw until the
rear clamp just touches the top of the rear guide rail.
3. Continue to turn the rear clamp adjusting
screw another

/4 turn.
4. Test the clamping pressure by loosening and
tightening the locking lever.
-24- G1073/G1073Z 16" Bandsaw
Figure 28. Blade leading away from line of cut.
Blade Lead
Most bandsaw blades will not appear to cut straight when using the fence or miter gauge.
This is called “lead.” (See Figure 28.) Lead
occurs (1) if the blade tension is incorrect, (2) if the teeth are dull on one side, or (3) if the teeth are set heavier on one side of the blade than the other.
If you notice that your blade is not cutting straight (i.e. leading) while using the fence or miter gauge:
1. Check that the miter slot is parallel to the
blade line.
2. Check that you have proper blade tension. If
the blade tension is correct and it is not con­venient to replace the blade, compensate for lead by skewing the fence or adjusting the table.
To skew your fence:
1. Make a piece of scrap wood that is approxi-
mately
3
4" thick x 3" wide x 17" long. On a wide face of the board, draw a straight line parallel to the long edge.
2. Slide the fence out of the way and cut free-
hand along the line. Stop at the halfway
point. Turn the bandsaw off and wait for the
blade to stop.
3. Clamp the board to the bandsaw table with­out moving it. Now slide the fence over to
the board so it barely touches one end of the board.
4. Loosen the two skewing cap screws on top of the fence. Figure 27.
5. Skew the fence left or right so it is parallel to
the edge of the scrap piece. You may need to readjust the fence locking mechanisms to gain maximum adjustment.
6. While maintaining the skew, tighten the cap
screws.
Figure 27. Fence controls.

5. Slide the fence along the rails. It should slide
easily.
6. Lock the handle again and check fence posi-
tion. The front of the fence should lock just before the rear of the fence as the handle is pushed down through its full motion.
G1073/G1073Z 16'' Bandsaw -25-
Figure 29. Holding a straightedge across both wheels.
Wheel Alignment
Wheel alignment is one of the easiest ways to ensure you get optimal performance from your bandsaw. When wheels are aligned, or coplanar, the bandsaw is more likely to cut straight without wandering; and vibration, heat, and blade wear are considerably decreased because the blade is automatically balanced on the wheel. This is
known as “Coplanar Tracking.”
To verify if the the upper and lower wheels are coplanar:
1. With the blade on and properly tensioned,
hold a straightedge close to the center of both wheels. Make sure it fully extends
across them as in Figure 29.
To compensate for lead if making straight crosscuts using the miter gauge, you will need to shift the table. To do this:
1. On a scrap piece of wood, mark a line that is
perpendicular to the front edge. Starting where the line begins, cut the board by push­ing it through the blade with the miter gauge.
2. Loosen the table mounting bolts according to
the instructions about “Table Parallelism” on page 20. Shift the table to compensate for the blade lead.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until the blade cuts
straight when wood is pushed through with the miter gauge.
NOTICE
Lead adjustments will change when new blades are mounted in the saw.
NOTICE
If the table is shifted, the fence will be affect­ed since it is attached.
2. A perfectly coplanar set of wheels will allow
the straightedge to touch the top and bottom of the outside rims on each wheel. If this is the case with your wheels, then they are coplanar.
3. If your wheels are not coplanar, check them
for adjustment by placing the straightedge on the upper wheel first – ensuring that it touches both the top and bottom rim – and adjust the tracking knob to see how the straightedge lines up with the lower wheel.
If the straightedge only touches the top rim of the lower wheel, then the upper wheel needs to be shimmed.
If the straightedge only touches the bottom rim of the lower wheel, then the lower wheel needs to be shimmed.
Shimming a wheel.
1. Adjust the tracking knob so the top wheel is
parallel with the bottom wheel. With the straightedge touching both points of the wheel that does not need to be adjusted, measure the distance away from the incor-
rect wheel with a fine ruler. See Figure 30.
The distance you measured with the ruler is the distance the wheel must be corrected.
-26- G1073/G1073Z 16" Bandsaw
Figure 32. Horizontal controls for upper wheel.
2. Adjust the setscrews in or out very slightly
(over-adjustment will cause the tension rod to bind). Use your straightedge from the pre­vious section to make the upper wheel paral­lel with the lower wheel.
3. Tighten the four cap screws and check wheel
alignment.
1. Loosen the four cap screws securing the two
sliding gibs to the body behind the upper
wheel, as shown in Figure 32.
Cap Screw
Setscrew

Adjusting Parallelism
To adjust a parallelism problem (i.e., if the middle of the wheels are coplanar, but the sides are not,
Figure 31.) follow these steps.
Sliding Gib
Figure 30. Measuring wheel difference.
3. Replace wheel, any remaining washers and
the securing nut. It is important to tighten the blade as it will be used during operation before you check the wheels for being coplanar. In other words, it is possible that the wheels may be coplanar with the blade loose, then be pulled out of alignment when it is tightened.
4. The first time you get the wheels coplanar it
is a good idea to place a mark on each wheel where you held the straightedge. This assures repeated accuracy every time you adjust your wheels.
2. Remove the blade from the saw, then the
securing nut and washers from the wheel that needs to be shimmed. Now remove the wheel. Use the washers that were behind the securing nut for shims. Measure how many you will need to equal the space of your gap and place them on the mounting shaft.
NOTICE
When wheels are properly coplanar, the blade may not be centered on the crown of the wheel, but it will be balanced.
G1073/G1073Z 16'' Bandsaw -27-
Once the assembly is complete and the adjust­ments are done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test the machine.
Turn on the power supply at the main panel. Pull the paddle switch up to start the bandsaw. Make sure that your hand is poised over the switch in case there is a problem. The bandsaw 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 you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, feel free to contact our service department for help.
Test Run
Blade Selections
The Model G1073/G1073Z 16" Bandsaw accepts 113" blades. The tension adjustment will accom­modate blades up to a maximum length of 114" and down to a minimum length of 112" (approx.).
A bandsaw blade is a delicate piece of steel that is subjected to tremendous strain. Take care of your blades and they will last a long time. 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. Grizzly supplies bandsaw blades in various widths for this saw. Please refer to our current catalog for prices and ordering informa­tion.
Many conditions may cause a bandsaw blade to break. Blade breakage is, in some cases, unavoidable because of the peculiar stresses to which bandsaw blades are subjected. 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 sup-
port guides.The most common causes of blade
breakage are:
Forcing or twisting a wide blade around a curve of short radius.
Feeding material too fast.
A dull or defective blade.
• Excessive tension.
Improperly adjusted blade guides.
Continuously running the bandsaw when not in use.
SECTION 6: OPERATIONS
Keep loose clothing rolled up and out of the way of machinery and keep hair pulled back.
Wear safety glasses dur­ing the entire operation process. Failure to com­ply may result in serious personal injury.
Disconnect power to the machine when perform­ing any maintenance or assembly. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.
-28- G1073/G1073Z 16" Bandsaw
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 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.
The table below lists blade widths and corre­sponding minimum radii each blade will cut:
Width Radius

Resawing
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 7
3
4''.
Use common sense when resawing. Attempting to resaw too wide or too dense of a board may put excessive strain on the blade and be danger­ous.
Blade selection is an important consideration when resawing. Generally, the wider the blade, the better. In most applications, a hook or skip tooth style will be sufficient. Also, since most resawn lumber will be planed smooth, you can choose blades with fewer teeth per inch (from 3 to 6). 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.
To resaw lumber:
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.
Using this machine pro­duces sawdust which may cause allergic reactions and respiratory problems. Use an approved dust mask to protect yourself from these hazards!
G1073/G1073Z 16'' Bandsaw -29-
SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE
V-Belts
To ensure optimum power transmission from the motor to the blade, the V-belt must be in good condition and operate under proper tension. The belts should be checked for cracks, fraying and wear. Belt tension should be checked at least every 3 months; more often if the bandsaw is used daily.
The V-belt is accessed via the bottom cover:
1. Squeeze the center of the V-belt.
2. Note the amount of deflection. Deflection
should be approximately
3
4". See “V-Belt
Adjustment” instructions.
The table and other non-painted surfaces on the Model G1073/G1073Z should be protected against rust and pitting. Wiping the saw clean after every use ensures that wood dust is not allowed to trap moisture against bare metal sur­faces.
The table can be kept rust-free with regular appli­cations of products like SLIPIT
®
or Boeshield® T-
9. For long term storage you may want to consid-
er products like Kleen Bore's Rust Guardit™. See the current Grizzly catalog for more on these products.
Table
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 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, towel or dry paint brush, and spray on the lubricant. Ensure that oil does not get on the pulleys or V-belt because it could cause belt dete­rioration and slipping.
Lubrication
Always be aware of the condition of your band­saw. Routinely check the condition of the follow­ing items and repair or replace as necessary:
Loose mounting bolts
Worn switch
Worn or damaged blade
Worn or damaged support bearings or guide
bearings
Miscellaneous
Always disconnect power to the machine when making adjust­ments. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.
