Remove this protective coating with a sol- vent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. Some parts may need to be removed before they can be thoroughly cleaned. For optimum performance from your machine, make sure you clean all moving parts or slid- ing contact surfaces that are coated.
Machine mounts, shown in Figure 5, give the advantage of fast leveling and vibration reduction. For the Model G0517, we recommend using four Grizzly Model G7159 machine mounts. Figure 5. Machine mount example. Bolting the machine to the floor is the strongest option, but also the most permanent.

Installing/Removing Drawbar Tooling The Model G0517 includes an M12-1.75 drawbar. Use the drawbar to connect the included drill chuck arbor or an aftermarket end mill holder. See Page 23 for recommended end mill holders. Always DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER when installing or removing tooling.
Installing Drill Chuck The drill chuck fits on the arbor with a taper fit. To install the drill chuck: UNPLUG THE MILL/DRILL! Prepare the mating surfaces on the arbor taper and the chuck by cleaning them thor- oughly. Retract the chuck jaws all the way inside of the chuck.
CLEARING CHIPS: Raise the drill bit often to clear chips and cool the drill bit. This will ease the work of the mill/drill motor and extend the life of your drill bits.
The chart shown in Figure 31 is intended as a guide only. Always follow the manufacturer's speed recommendations if provided with your drill bits, cutters, or hole saws. Exceeding the recommended speeds by large amounts may be dangerous to the operator.
