9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condi­tion. Conductor size should be in accor­dance with the chart below. The amperage rating should be listed on the motor or tool nameplate. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Your extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords if they become damaged.
Minimum Gauge for Extension Cords
10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear
loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair cover­ing to contain long hair.
11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use
face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resis­tant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold
work when practical. It’s safer than using your hand and frees both hands to operate tool.
13. DO NOT OVER-REACH. Keep proper 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.
15. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.

Safety Instructions For Power Tools
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

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.

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.

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.

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
