General

Regular periodic maintenance on your Model

mum performance. Make a habit of inspecting
your machine each time you use it. Check for the
following conditions and repair or replace when
necessary:
1. Loose mounting bolts.
2. Worn switch.
3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs.
4. Any other condition that could hamper the
safe operation of this machine.
5. Do not let collection bags get completely full.

Keep loose clothing
rolled up and out of the
way of machinery and
keep hair pulled back.
Wear safety glasses dur-
ing the entire mainte-
nance process. Failure
to comply may result in
serious personal injury.

Lubrication

Since all bearings are shielded and permanently
lubricated, simply leave them alone until they
need to be replaced. Do not lubricate them.

Bag Cleaning

Always empty the collection bags on a regular
basis. Emptying the collection bags allows the
machine to operate at a much higher level of effi-
ciency.
Always wear the appropriate respirator or dust
mask and safety glasses when emptying the col-
lection bags. Small dust particles can escape the
bags during emptying, causing them to become
airborn and easily inhailed. This microscopic air-
born dust is extremely unhealthy to breathe and
can cause serious health problems.
While the Model G1028Z/G1029 excels at collect-
ing the majority of wood dust produced by your
machines, it is not an air filter; therfore, we
strongly recommend the supplemental aid of a
shop air filter such as the Grizzly G5955 or
G9956. Air filters are designed to collect the
smaller dust particles that a dust collector bags
cannot trap.
G1028Z/G1029 Dust Collector
Always wear a dust
mask when changing
the dust collection bags
on the dust collector.

piratory problems.
