Test Run - Grizzly G4003 Manual Insert

Test Run

Always make sure the power switch is in the
"OFF" position and the spindle control lever
is in the neutral position before plugging in
power cord.
Now that the lathe is securely in place and
you've read the safety guidelines, it's time to give
the machine a test run.
Before starting the machine:
1. Make sure the machine is properly ground-
ed, the Power Switch is in the "OFF" position
and the spindle control lever is in the neutral
position. See Figure 24.
2. Inspect the machine to ensure that all hand
tools are out of the way, guards are in place
and nothing is impeding the movement of
the chuck. Check this by rotating the chuck
by hand.
3. Rotate the stop switch, on the headstock of
the lathe, in the direction indicated by the
arrows imprinted on the button.
4. Lower the control lever on the apron. The
spindle should start turning in a counter
clockwise direction.

If the direction is reversed, contact our service depart-
ment for further instructions.
5. If the lathe is running correctly, lift the spindle con-
trol lever to the neutral position, wait for the
machine to come to a complete stop and take
some time to become familiar with the various
controls.
