Section 7: Maintenance; Schedule; Lubrication; Bag Cleaning - Grizzly G1028Z/G1029Z Owner's Manual

SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE

Always disconnect power
to the machine before
performing maintenance.
Failure to do this may
result in serious person-
al injury.

Schedule

For optimum performance from your machine,
follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any
specific instructions given in this section.
Daily Check:
• Loose mounting bolts.
• Worn switch.
• Worn or damaged wires.
• Almost full collection bag.
• Any other unsafe condition.

Lubrication

Since all bearings are shielded and permanently
lubricated, simply leave them alone until they
need to be replaced. Do not lubricate them.

Always wear a respira-
tor when emptying the
dust collection bags
on the dust collector.
Sawdust may cause
allergic reactions or
respiratory problems.

Bag Cleaning

Always empty the collection bags on a regular
basis. Emptying the collection bags allows the
machine to operate at a much higher level of
efficiency.
Always wear the appropriate respirator or dust
mask and safety glasses when emptying the col-
lection bags. Small dust particles can escape the
bags during emptying, causing them to become
airborne and easily inhaled. This microscopic air-
borne dust is extremely unhealthy to breathe and
can cause serious health problems.
While the Model G1028Z/G1029Z excels at col-
lecting the majority of wood dust produced by
your machines, it is not an air filter; therefore, we
strongly recommend the supplemental aid of a
shop air filter such as the Grizzly G5955 or G9956.
Air filters are designed to collect the smaller dust
particles that a dust collector bags cannot trap.
