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.
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
INEXPERIENCED PERSONNEL TO
OPERATE THE MACHINE. Make sure
any instructions you give in regards to
machine operation are approved, correct,
safe, and clearly understood.
22. 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.
-4- G7209/10 14'' Table Saw
Additional Safety Instructions For Table Saws
1. ALWAYS use blade guard, splitter and
anti-kickback fingers on all ''through-sawing'' operations. Through-sawing operations are those when the blade cuts completely through the workpiece as in ripping
or crosscutting.
2. AVOID KICKBACKS. A condition in which
a piece of wood is thrown back towards an
operator at a high rate of speed. If you do
not have a complete understanding of how
kickback occurs, or how to prevent it, DO
NOT operate this table saw.
3. NEVER reach behind or over the blade
with either hand for any reason.
4. ALWAYS use a push-stick for ripping nar-
row stock.
5. 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.
6. NEVER stand or have any part of your
body in line with the path of the saw blade.
7. ALWAYS hold the work firmly against the
miter gauge or fence while holding down
against the table.
8. MOVE the rip fence out of the way when
crosscutting.
9. NEVER use the miter gauge and rip fence
at the same time.
10. NEVER attempt to free a stalled saw blade
without first turning the saw OFF.
11. PROVIDE adequate support to the rear
and sides of the saw table for wide or long
workpieces.
12. AVOID awkward operations and hand
positions where a sudden slip could cause
your hand to move into the blade.
13. 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.
14. ALWAYS LOWER OR REMOVE SAW
BLADE WHEN NOT IN USE.
15. NEVER USE A DAMAGED SAW BLADE
OR ONE THAT HAS BEEN DROPPED.
16. USE GREAT CARE WHEN CUTTING
WITH A DADO BLADE. There is a high
degree of risk involved with any dado operation. Slight movement of the stock away
from the fence will cause kickback.
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 follow guidelines could
result in serious personal injury, damage to
equipment or poor work results.
G7209/10 14'' Table Saw -5-
Push Sticks
The use of push sticks, particularly when cutting
small or narrow workpieces, provides a double
benefit for saw operators. The push stick provides added leverage, enabling the operator to
keep the workpiece firmly supported against the
fence and table. At the same time, the push stick
keeps the operator’s hand safely away from the
rotation of the saw blade. See the template at the
end of the manual for construction details, or pur-
chase one from the Grizzly catalog. See Figure
1.
Zero Clearance Table Inserts
Ideal for use when ripping thin strips or making
bevel cuts, these prevent tearout and jammed
blades by supporting material close to the blade.
Use the standard table insert as a template when
creating additional inserts from wood or plywood.
Blade slot inserts can be custom cut for specific
blade angles by raising the running blade into an
uncut insert at the angle you desire. Be sure to
make an additional slot for the blade splitter.
Grizzly also carries a wide selection of table
inserts in the Grizzly catalog. Be sure to hold the
insert firmly in place with a piece of wood when
creating slots. Never hold the table insert with
your hand while cutting new slots. See Figure 2.
Safety Accessories
Statistics prove that most common accidents among table saw users can be
linked to kickback. Kickback is typically
defined as the high-speed expulsion of
stock from the table saw toward its operator. In addition to the danger of the operator or others in the area being struck by
the flying stock, it is often the case that
the operator’s hands are pulled into the
blade during the kickback. The following
can help minimize kickbacks.
1. Use your blade guard and splitter.
2. Never for any reason place your hand
behind the blade. Should kickback
occur, your hand will be pulled into the
blade.
3. Inspect splitter for alignment between it
and your blade.
4. Never use the fence as a guide for
crosscutting.
5. Never attempt freehand cuts.
6. Use a pushstick or featherboard to maintain control of your workpiece.
7. Feed cuts through to completion.
8. Stand to the side when ripping.
9. Ensure your fence and miter slot are parallel to the blade.
If you do not have a clear understanding of
kickback and how it occurs, do not operate
this table saw.
Figure 1. Push Stick
-6- G7209/10 14'' Table Saw
Push Paddles
Push paddles provide added leverage and support when ripping or crosscutting wide workpieces. Grizzly offers a number of push paddles
in the Grizzly catalog. See Figure 3.
Featherboard
Easily made from scrap stock, featherboards
provide an added degree of protection against
kickback. To make a featherboard, cut a 3040° angle at one end of the board and make a
number of end cuts at approximately
1
⁄4" apart
and 2" to 3" deep. Grizzly also offers a number
of featherboards in the Grizzly catalog. See
Figure 4.

Common Definitions, Terms and Phrases
The following is a list of common definitions, terms and phrases used throughout this manual as they relate
to this table saw and woodworking in general. It is important that you read and become familiar with them
before assembling, adjusting or operating this machine. Your safety is VERY important to us at Grizzly!
Arbor: Metal shaft extending from the drive
mechanism, to which the cutting blade is
attached.
Bevel Edge Cut: Tilting the saw arbor and blade
to an angle between 0° and 45° to perform an
angled cutting operation.
Blade Guard: Metal or plastic mechanism that
mounts over the saw blade to prevent accidental contact with the cutting edge.
Crosscut: Table saw operation in which the miter
gauge is used to cut across the grain of a piece
of wood.
Dado Blade: Blade or set of blades that attach to
the arbor and are used for cutting grooves and
rabbets.
Dado Cut: Table saw operation that uses a dado
blade to cut a flat bottomed groove into the
face of wood stock.
Featherboard: Safety device used to keep a
board against the rip fence or table. Allows
operator to keep hands away from the saw
blade.
Kerf: The resulting cut or gap made by a saw
blade.
Kickback: A condition in which the wood is
thrown back towards an operator at a high rate
of speed.
Miter Gauge: A component that controls the
wood stock movement while performing a
crosscut. Allows for variation of angle cuts
such as miter cuts used on a picture frame.
Moulding Head: A cutterhead attached to the
arbor. Accepts interchangeable moulding
knives for profile cutting. We DO NOT recommend the use of a moulding head as they
require advanced skills in their operation.
Parallel: Being an equal distance apart at every
point. i.e. the rip fence face is parallel to the
side face of the saw blade.
Non-Thru Cut: A sawing operation that requires
the removal of the blade guard and splitter.
Dado and rabbet cuts are considered NonThru Cuts because the blade does not protrude above the top face of the wood stock.
Always remember to reinstall the blade guard
and splitter after performing a non-thru cut.
Perpendicular: Intersecting and forming right
angles; at right angles to the vertical and horizontal planes. i.e. the blade is perpendicular to
the table surface.
Push Paddle: Safety aid used to push a piece of
wood stock through a cutting operation.
Push Stick: Safety aid used to push a piece of
wood stock through a cutting operation.
Usually used when rip cutting.
Rabbet: Cutting operation that creates an L-
shaped channel along the edge of wood stock.
Splitter: Metal plate attached to the back of the
blade guard that maintains the kerf opening in
the wood when performing a cutting operation.
Standard Kerf:
1
⁄8" gap made with a standard
blade.
Straightedge: A tool used to check the flatness,
parallelness, or consistency of a surface(s).
Thru-Sawing: A sawing operation where the
wood stock thickness is completely sawn
through. Proper blade height usually allows
1
⁄4"
of the top of the blade to extend above the
wood stock.
Thin Kerf:
3
⁄32" gap made with a thin kerf blade.
Rip Cut: A cut made along grain of the wood.
Sacrificial Fence: A piece of wood attached to
the face of the rip fence that is designed to
extend the fence face away from the metal portion of the fence. Used primarily when making
rabbet cuts with a dado blade.

SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
220V Single-Phase 220V Three-Phase
G7209 Only:
The Model G7209 has a 5 H.P., 3450 R.P.M.
motor which requires a 220V single-phase circuit.
The cord set included does not have a plug, as
the style of plug you require will depend upon the
type of service you currently have or plan to
install. The motor will safely draw about 30 amps
at 220V under load. If you operate the G7209 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.
In preparing to connect the Model G7209 to your
existing or new circuit, it will be necessary to connect a plug that matches your 220V receptacle. If
you will be installing a new receptacle and plug,
we recommend using a NEMA-style 6L-30 plug
and outlet shown in Figure 5.
The Model G7209 should be fused at 30 amps.
Fusing at amperage ratings higher than 30 amps
will not adequately protect the circuit.
Figure 5. 220V Single-Phase
Figure 6. 220V 3-Phase
G7210 Only:
The Model G7210 has a 7
1
⁄2 H.P., 3450 R.P.M.
motor which requires a 220V 3-phase circuit. The
cord set enclosed does not have a plug, as the
style of plug you require will depend upon the type
of service you currently have or plan to install. The
motor will safely draw about 22 amps at 220V
under load. If you operate the G7210 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.
In preparing to connect the Model G7210 to your
existing or new circuit, it will be necessary to connect a plug that matches your 220V receptacle. If
you will be installing a new receptacle and plug,
we recommend using a HBL2711 30 A plug and
outlet shown in Figure 6.
The Model G7210 should be fused at 30 amps.
Fusing at amperage ratings higher than 30 amps
will not adequately protect the circuit.
G7209/10 14'' Table Saw -9-
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 in Section 1: Safety 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
A wiring diagram is provided at the back of this
manual should it be necessary to repair or revise
the wiring. Always utilize a qualified electrician
when doing any electrical work on this equipment.
Wiring Diagram
We have covered some basic electrical
requirements for the safe operation of your
machine. 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.
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 which must
be properly connected to a grounding plug. The
plug 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.
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.

G7209/10 14'' Table Saw -11-
Unpacking
The Model G7209/10 is shipped from the manufacturer in a carefully packed carton. If you discover the machine is damaged after you’ve
signed for delivery, immediately call Customer
Service for advice.
When you are completely satisfied with the condition of your shipment, you should inventory its
parts.
Piece Inventory
After all the parts have been removed from their
containers, you should have:
• Table Saw Unit
• Miter Gauge
• Extension Wings (2)
• Fence Assembly
• Splitter/Guard Assembly
• Dust Port
• Hardware Bag
In the event that any nonproprietary parts are
missing (e.g. a nut or a washer), we would be
glad to replace them; or for the sake of expediency, replacements can be obtained at your local
hardware store.
The G7209/10 is a heavy
machine, 1000 lbs. shipping weight. DO NOT
over-exert yourself
while unpacking or
moving your machine –
you will need assistance and power equipment. Serious personal
injury may occur if safe
moving methods are
not followed.
Make sure floor structure
is capable of supporting
the combined weight of
the machine parts and
people.

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.
-12- G7209/10 14'' Table Saw
Clean up
The table and other unpainted parts of the Model
G7209/10 are coated with a waxy grease that
protects them from corrosion during shipment.
Clean this grease off with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s G7895
Degreaser. Do not use chlorine-based solvents –
if you happen to splash some onto a painted surface, you’ll ruin the finish.
Site Considerations
1. Floor Load: Your Model G7209/10 repre-
sents a large weight load in a small footprint.
Most commercial floors are suitable for the
saw. 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 table or
other machinery when establishing a location for your table saw.
3. Lighting and Outlets: Lighting should be
bright enough to eliminate shadows 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.
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.
Do not use gasoline or
other petroleum-based
solvents. They have low
flash points which make
them extremely flammable. A risk of explosion
and burning exists if
these products are
used. Serious personal
injury may occur if this
warning is ignored.
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
Beginning Assembly
Most of your Model G7209/10 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.
TOOLS REQUIRED: You will need a high quality
square, a long straightedge, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm
open end wrenches and a 3mm Allen
®
wrench.
Extension Wings
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.
1. Attach the left wing to the table using the
three hex head bolts and flat washers provided. Adjust the wing reasonably flush with
the table. Do not tighten the bolts.
2. Attach the right wing to the table using the
three hex head bolts and flat washers provided. Adjust the wing reasonably flush with
the table. Do not tighten the bolts.
3. Align the top of the wing flush with the table
top directly above the front bolt, and tighten
the front bolt. The front edge of the extension
wing should also be flush with the front edge
of the table.
4. 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.
NOTICE
The right and left wings are not the same.
The left wing has two tapped holes on the
outside edge, the right has a tapped hole on
the front and back edge. If the wings are not
installed in their correct location, the fence
cannot be attached.
The table and wings
represent a very heavy
load. DO NOT overexert yourself while lifting or moving the table
and wings – get assistance.
Disconnect power to the
machine when performing any maintenance,
assembly or adjustments. Failure to do this
may result in serious
personal injury.
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.
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.

Figure 7. Using tape to shim for wing alignment.
Masking Tape
5. 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 minimal.
6. Check flushness at the front bolt and read-
just if necessary.
7. Repeat Steps 3-4 for the other extension
wing.
8. Now, check the alignment of the table and
both wings with a straightedge. The straightedge should run flat across both wings and
the table top. If the straightedge contacts
both wings and the table evenly, you are finished with this section. If it does not, contin-
ue to Step 9.
9. If the extension wings tilt up or down at the
outside edges, remove the wings and shim
them with masking tape. See Figure 7.
a. If the wings tilt down, stick layers of mask-
ing tape under each bolt near the bottom
edge of the wing and retighten.
b. If the wing tilts up, stick layers of masking
tape above each bolt near the top edge of
the wing and retighten. Allow tape to
extend above table surface and trim with
a sharp knife after final assembly.
10. Replace the wings and check again.
Fence Rails
1. Locate the rear fence rail (the shorter of the
two rails).
2. Attach the rear rail to the table top using the
spacers, hex bolts and lock washers sup-
plied. See Figure 8. Using a combination
square set at
15
⁄32", place at the edge of the
table, and adjust the rail so it is consistently
15
⁄
32" below the top of the table.
3. Attach the front rail to the table top using the
hex socket flathead screws supplied. See
Figure 9. Place a combination square set at
25
⁄32", at the edge of the table, and adjust the
rail so it is consistently
25
⁄32" below the top of
the table.
