Loose mounting bolts.
•
Damaged laser optics.
•
Worn or damaged wires.
•
Any other unsafe condition.
Daily Maintenance

Wipe down interior cabinet area before and
after use.
•
Clean and vacuum dust buildup on table,
inside cabinet, and on shafts and rails.
•
Verify laser tube connections are secure and
no air bubbles are present in tube.
•
Check auxiliary systems for proper function
and fill water reservoir, as required.
Weekly Maintenance
•
Clean and vacuum dust buildup on auxiliary
systems and air pump filter.
•
Wipe shaft and rail metal surfaces with light

Model G0911–G0914 (Mfd. Since 05/21)
Cleaning &
Protecting
The Model G0911–G0914 only requires a general
cleaning before and after each use. After one
month of use, perform a comprehensive inspec-
tion and verify all fasteners on all moving parts
have not come loose.
Over the life of the machine, longevity is reduced
by moisture, abrasive material, corrosion, dust,
and fumes generated by laser operations.
The following sections summarize the cleaning
and lubrication required for each area.
NOTICE
DO NOT clean belts with acids, alkalis, oils,
or solvents. Contact with chemicals and
oils will accelerate belt deterioration.
NOTICE
Avoid harsh solvents like acetone or brake
parts cleaner that may damage painted sur-
faces. Always test on a small, inconspicu-
ous location first.
Lubrication
Grizzly recommends sewing machine oil (ISO 10
or less) for its light viscosity, odorless application,
and resilience to capturing particulates.
General machine oil or mineral oil is NOT recom-
mended for use on this machine due to the high
volume of particulates produced by laser cutting
and engraving.
