Ix. Table Angle - Grizzly G1071 Instruction Manual

IX. TABLE ANGLE

The Angle Adjustment Levers enable the
table top to be tilted up to 45° to the front and
20° to the rear. Figure 3. Both levers must be
released to allow the table to tilt. The levers
are located under the table on both the left
and right sides of the sander. The angle indi-
cator shows the degree of pitch.
To calibrate the angle indicator:
1. Use a quality machinist's square and
bring the table perpendicular (90°) to the
spindle. Move the square around the
sanding spindle to ensure that the table
is square in all directions. Figure 4.
2.
Lock the levers down when your table is
square to the sanding spindle. You can
now calibrate the angle indicator arrow
(shown in Figure 3) by loosening its
retaining screw and turning the arrow
until it points directly to "zero" on the
angle guide.

Dust Port
There is a positive stop bolt (#54) that, when
adjusted correctly, allows you to return the
table square to the spindle with little effort.
The positive stop bolt is a long bolt located
below the table.
To adjust the positive stop bolt:
1. Loosen the jam nut on the positive stop
bolt.
2. With the table square to the spindle and
tightened securely, adjust the positive
stop bolt so it just touches the table.
3. Re-tighten the jam nut.
4. If angling the table over the dust port, first
loosen the jam nut and then remove the
stop bolt completely. You can then tilt the
table back to 20°. Don't forget to re-cali-
brate the stop bolt when you put it back
in.
