Guide Post; Table Tilt - Grizzly ULTIMATE 14" G0555 Owner's Manual

Guide Post

the guide post, shown in the figure below, con-
nects the upper blade guide assembly and blade
guard to the bandsaw.
the guidepost allows these components to be
positioned above the workpiece at a distance that
provides the greatest support to the blade and
minimizes operator exposure to the blade. We
recommend positioning the blade guides so that
they just clear the workpiece.
