Rotation; Speed Changes - Grizzly G1035 Instruction Manual

Rotation

Your shaper is equipped with a FORWARD/
REVERSE switch. See Figure 23. In many
instances, it will be necessary to flip the cutter
over and reverse cutter rotation. Whenever pos-
sible, mount the cutter so the board is milled on
the bottom side (the side away from the opera-
tor). This does a better job and it is safer for the
operator.
Always check the direction of cutter rotation
before any shaping operation.

Speed Changes

The Model G1035 Shaper is equipped with a spe-
cial high speed V-belt. It is designed to withstand
the vibration and sudden shock loads associated
with the operation of a shaper.
To change spindle speeds:
1. Unplug the shaper!
2. Loosen the two motor plate bolts and slide the
motor toward the spindle assembly. DO NOT
take the bolts out.
3. Move the V-belt to a sheave on the motor and
spindle pulleys to select the desired speed
(See Figure 24.)
Figure 24. Speed change belt positions.
4.
Slide the motor back into position and tighten
the belt. When the belt is properly tensioned,
there should be approximately
tion in the center of the belt when you press
it with your thumb.
5.
Tighten all the adjusting bolts.
6.
Spin the pulley to ensure proper tracking.
