The general rule of thumb is to sand a workpiece with progressively higher grit numbers, with no one grit increase of more than 50. The Model G1066/G1066Z/G1079 allows you to place two different grit sandpapers on each drum.The first drum should have a coarser grit than the second.
Failure to do this may result in seri- ous personal injury. General Make a habit of inspecting your Model G1066/G1066Z/G1079 each time you use it. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary. • Loose mounting bolts.
Replace bearing as follows: Remove the roller housing from the drum sander and clamp it tightly in a bench vise. Insert the screwdriver into the center hole of the bearing as shown in Figure 18. Lever the bearing until it turns perpendicular to the housing.
However, due to Grizzly’s policy of continuous improvement, changes may be made at any time with no obligation on the part of Grizzly. Whenever possible, though, we send manual updates to all owners of a particular tool or machine.
