Switch Pedestal; Spindle - Grizzly G5913Z Owner's Manual

Switch Pedestal

Turn the switch pedestal upright to install it on the
back of the shaper. Have another person hold it in
place, then reach inside and thread the nuts onto
the bolts.

Spindle

The Model G5913Z/G7215Z comes with three
interchangeable spindles like those in Figure
6. The spindles must be inserted correctly and
remain stable in order to produce quality work.
When installing and changing spindles, make
sure the spindle seats snugly and that there is
enough drawbar threaded into the bottom of the
spindle to safely secure it in place.
To install a spindle:
1. DISCONNECT SHAPER FROM POWER!

drawbar has two threaded ends. One of them

3. Drop the spindle/drawbar into the spindle
cartridge at the top of the table. Line up the
notches at the top of the spindle cartridge
with those in the spindle as shown in Figure
