Test Run - Grizzly G0643 Owner's Manual

Test Run

Once the setup and assembly are complete, test
run your machine to make sure it runs properly.
If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate
the source of an unusual noise or vibration, stop
using the machine immediately, then review the
Troubleshooting on Page 26.
If you still cannot remedy a problem, contact our
Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 for assistance.
To test run the machine:
1. Read and follow the safety instructions at the
beginning of the manual, and make sure the
machine is setup properly.
2.
Make sure all tools and objects used during
set up are cleared away from the machine.
3. If there are boring bits installed in the machine,
remove them.
4. Make sure the boring head guards are in
place and are free to move up as the boring
head comes down.
5. Make sure the air pressure dial on the air
regulator reads 70 PSI.
6. Ensure the machine is lubricated (refer to
Lubrication on Page 23).
7.
Set the depth control to 0.50" (refer to
Adjusting Drilling Depth on Page 19 for
detailing instructions).
8. Connect the machine to the power source.
9.
Push the Emergency Stop button in, then
twist it clockwise so it pops out. When this
button pops out, the switch is reset and ready
for operation (see Figure 16).

button in—the green lamp on that button
should light.
11. Press down on the foot switch—the bor-
ing head should come down and the boring

actions. The machine should run smoothly
with little or no vibration or rubbing noises.
— Strange or unusual noises should be inves-
tigated and corrected before operating the
machine further. Always disconnect the
machine from power when investigating or
correcting potential problems.
13. Lift your foot from the foot switch, and turn
the machine OFF by pressing the Emergency
Stop button in.
14. With the power to the machine turned OFF,
press the foot switch—the boring head should
come down but the boring chucks should
NOT turn.
15. If there were no problems during this Test
Run, the boring machine is ready for opera-
tion.
