Operation Overview - Grizzly G1014Z Owner's Manual

Table Tilt: Use to tilt the table relative to the
sanding disc or the sanding belt. To tilt the table,
loosen the table tilt lock knob (Figure 46), tilt the
work table to the desired angle, then retighten the
lock knob.
The work table should be set approximately
away from the sanding disc or sanding belt to
prevent fingers or workpieces from getting caught.
To adjust the work table relative to the sanding
disc, refer to Step 16 in Sanding Unit Assembly
on Page 24. To adjust the work table relative to
the belt, refer to Step 9 in "Setting up Sander for
Vertical Sanding" on Page 38.

Miter Gauge: Use to move workpieces into the
sanding disc (horizontal sanding) or belt (verti-
cal sanding) at a specific angle. To use the miter
gauge (Figure 46), slide it into the miter slot,
loosen the lock knob, set the angle, then tighten
the knob.
Belt Tracking and Tension: The quick release
tension lever (see Figure 47) tensions the belt. To
tension the sanding belt, move the quick release
tension lever toward the motor.
The tracking control knob keeps the belt in the
center of the idler and drive rollers. To adjust the
belt tracking, loosen the lock nut on the track-
ing control knob. Turn the motor ON, adjust the
tracking in small increments with the knob, then
tighten the lock nut to secure the knob. (Refer to
Tracking Belt instructions on Page 41 for more
details.)

Operation Overview

This combination sander removes surface mate-
rial from the edges, ends, and faces of wood
stock using an abrasive belt and disc. A graphite
coated platen on the sanding belt frame provides
a flat support surface for the sanding belt and
workpiece.
The abrasive belt revolves around a pair of metal
rollers, one of which is driven by the motor. The
adhesive-backed abrasive disc is attached to a
cast iron disc, which revolves in a counterclock-
wise direction.
During a typical operation, the sander is turned
ON, and while holding the workpiece with both
hands, the operator gradually eases the workpiece
into the belt or the left side of the sanding disc.
