C. TABLE INSERTS
The three inserts included with the Model
G1071 are sized to provide free sanding spin-
dle movement while minimizing the gap
between the abrasive surface and the table
top. The holes in the inserts are shaped to
allow the sanding spindles to rotate freely
even when the table is angled to its maximum
45° pitch.
Place the insert with the smallest diameter
which allows free movement of the spindle
over the top of the spindle and lower it into the
hole in the table top. The insert is fitted with
pins which only allow it to fit securely in one
position on the table. That position allows the
table to tilt without impeding the movement of
the spindle.
Each insert is fitted with setscrews which
enable you to adjust the insert's height. Use
those setscrews to adjust the insert to match
the height of the tabletop. Smooth movement
of your workpiece is essential for proper
sander operation. Make sure your inserts are
aligned as closely to the table as possible.
D. SANDING SLEEVES
Grizzly offers sleeves in 60, 80, 100, 120 and
150 grit. Please refer to the Grizzly catalog
for ordering information.
To replace the sleeves:
1.
Loosen the hex nut at the top of the
sanding spindle (spindles
er have setscrews at their bases that
secure the sleeves to the spindle).

2.
Remove the sleeve from the spindle. If
you have worn the sleeve out on one end,
you can extend the life of the sleeve by
flipping it over and refitting it on the spin-
dle. If the entire sleeve is worn out,
replace with a new sleeve of the correct
diameter.
3.
Re-tighten the hex nut at the top of the
spindle (or setscrews at the base) and
begin using again.
E. DUST COLLECTION
The Model G1071 is capable of creating a
large amount of dust while in use. If you have
a dust collection system in your shop, you
should create a duct to service the spindle
sander. The exhaust hood is designed to
accommodate 4" flexible collection hose. Note
the location of the Dust Port in Figure 3.
If a dust collection system is not available, you
might consider purchasing adapters that will
enable you to use your shop vacuum to work
as a portable dust collection tool. The Grizzly
catalog provides a wide variety of dust collec-
tors and dust collection accessories. See the
latest issue of the Grizzly catalog for more
information.
