Pressure Roller Height - Grizzly G0677 Owner's Manual

Pressure Roller
Height
The pressure rollers have been set at the factory,
but for safety, you should verify that they are set
below the level of the sanding roller.
The pressure rollers must be set below the
level of the sanding roller. If the pressure
rollers are even, or higher than the sanding
roller, the wood WILL be propelled from the
machine at a high rate of speed toward the
front of the machine. This could cause seri-
ous kickback injury.

To check the pressure roller height:
1. DISCONNECT THE
FROM THE POWER SOURCE!
2.
Place a 20" long 2x4 of uniform thickness
across one side of the table so it spans both
the front and rear pressure rollers at the
same time (see Figure
Figure 20. Checking pressure roller height.
3.
With the air pressure connected and the
sanding belt installed and tensioned, manu-
ally raise the table and verify that the board
touches both pressure rollers before it touch-
es the sanding belt.
4. Repeat Step 3 on the other side of the con-
veyor table.
Note: If the board did not touch both pressure
rollers before it touched the sanding belt on
either side, or if it was difficult to place the
board between the rollers and the table on in
Step 4, then the pressure rollers MUST be
adjusted before operation. See "Pressure
Rollers" on Page 49 for step-by-step instruc-
tions.
