Maintenance Table; V-Belt - Grizzly G1011Z Instruction Manual

SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE
Table
The table and other non-painted surfaces on the
Model G1011Z should be protected against rust
and pitting. Wiping the saw clean after every use
helps to ensure that coolant and chips won't begin
to corrode the working surfaces of the bandsaw.
Protect the table surfaces with a light coating of
oil periodically, especially when the saw will not
be used for a time period.

V-Belt

To ensure optimum power transmission from the
motor to the blade, the V-belt must be in good
condition and must be under the proper tension.
The belt should be checked for cracks, fraying
and wear. Belt integrity should be checked at
least every 3 months; more often if the bandsaw
is used daily.
Make sure the belt is tensioned properly whenev-
er speed changes are made Refer to the Cutting
Speed section for more complete detail on the
speeds and moving the belt.
Make your workshop "child-safe." Remove
all safety keys from this and other machin-
ery when they're not in use. Place sharp
tools and blades high enough to discourage
curious fingers. Store lubricants, finishes
and other harmful chemicals where they
can't be easily reached. Lock your work-
shop securely when you are away.
Operating this equipment has the poten-
tial to propel debris into the air which can
cause eye injury. Always wear safety glass-
es or goggles when operating equipment.
Everyday glasses or reading glasses only
have impact resistant lenses, they are not
safety glasses. Be certain the safety glasses
you wear meet the appropriate standards of
the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI).
