SECTION 4: OPERATIONS
Operation Overview
The purpose of this overview is to provide the nov-
ice machine operator with a basic understanding
of how the machine is used during operation, so
the machine controls/components discussed later
in this manual are easier to understand.
Due to the generic nature of this overview, it is
not intended to be an instructional guide. To learn
more about specific operations, read this entire
manual, seek additional training from experienced
machine operators, and do additional research
outside of this manual by reading "how-to" books,
trade magazines, or websites.
To reduce your risk of
serious injury, read this
entire
using machine.
To reduce risk of eye injury from flying
debris, always wear safety glasses and a
face shield when operating this machine.
If you are not experienced with this type
of machine, WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND
that you seek additional training outside of
this manual. Read books/magazines or get
formal training before beginning any proj-
ects. Regardless of the content in this sec-
tion, Grizzly Industrial will not be held liable

BEFORE
To complete a typical operation, the operator
does the following:
1.
Examines workpiece to make sure it is suit-
able for pressing.
2.
Adjusts press bed height (see Adjusting
Press Bed Height on Page 1) to accommo-
date workpiece.
3.
Places workpiece on press bed or press
blocks, and either centers workpiece press-
ing point under ram or centers ram over
workpiece pressing point.
4.
Puts on safety glasses and face shield.
5.
Turns motor ON and lowers ram lightly
against workpiece.
6.
Verifies workpiece has not shifted position
and completes pressing operation.
Machine damage may occur if ram exerts
maximum force when extended beyond 3/4
of its total length. Rather than over-extend
ram, raise table as necessary to reduce ram
stroke length.
7.
Raises ram and removes workpiece from
press bed.
8.
Turns machine OFF.
NEVER exceed maximum rated pressure
of press (25 MPa/3600 psi) or machine
damage or personal injury could occur!
