Blade Selection

The Model G9743 uses 104
blades.
Selecting the right blade for the job depends on
a variety of factors, such as the type of mate-
rial being cut, hardness of the material, machine
capability, and operator technique.
We suggest you do some research for your spe-
cific situation so you get the best blade to match
your needs.
Grizzly is proud to offer a variety of selections
that can be found in the current catalog and in
SECTION 5: ACCESSORIES on Page 26.

Cutting Fluid System

This bandsaw has a built-in cutting fluid system
that extends the life of your bandsaw blades
by lowering the temperature of the blade and
workpiece and washing away chips.

tion.
To use the cutting fluid system:
1.
Thoroughly clean and remove any foreign
material that may have fallen inside the res-
ervoir during shipping.
2.
Place the filter screen and drain tube in the
reservoir as shown in Figure 17 .
3.
Fill the reservoir to the "high" mark with your
chosen cutting fluid solution.
