Below are steps you must take to avoid the most common causes of kickback: Statistics show that most common acci- dents among table saw users can be linked to kickback. Kickback is typically defined as the high-speed expulsion of stock from the table saw toward the operator.
SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY Availability Electrocution, equipment damage may occur if machine is not correctly grounded and connected to the power supply. Full-Load Current Rating Full-Load Current Rating at 220V ... 23 Amps Full-Load Current Rating at 440V .. 11.5 Amps Circuit Requirements for 220V Nominal Voltage ...
Grounding Instructions For 220V operation: GROUNDED L15-30 RECEPTACLE L15-30 PLUG Figure 2. For 440V operation: Figure 3. Serious injury could occur if you connect the machine to power before completing the setup process. DO NOT connect to power until instructed later in this manual.

440V Conversion To rewire the Model G0699 for 440V opera- tion: Figure 4 Figure 4. Figure 5 Electrical Cabinet Wiring Diagram Page 73 Figure 5. Note: Although the two 220V relays look sim- ilar, they are not the same models. However, the two 440V relays are the same models and can be installed in either position.
Page 17
Correcting Phase Polarity If this machine is wired out-of-phase, the blades will spin in the wrong directions. If you attempt a cutting operation with the blades spinning backward, the workpiece could be thrown aggressively from the table during the cutting operation. This could result in death or serious personal injury.
SECTION 3: SETUP This machine presents serious injury hazards to untrained users. Read through this entire manu- al to become familiar with the controls and opera- tions before starting the machine! Wear safety glasses dur- ing the entire setup pro- cess! This machine and its com- ponents are very heavy.

Cleanup Before cleaning, gather the following: Basic steps for removing rust preventative: Steps 2–3 Gasoline or products with low flash points can explode or cause fire if used to clean machin- ery. Avoid cleaning with these products. Many cleaning solvents are toxic if concentrat- ed amounts are inhaled.

Lifting & Placing The Model G0699 is a heavy machine. Serious personal injury may occur if safe moving methods are not used. To be safe, get assistance and use power equipment to move the shipping crate and remove the machine from the crate.

Figure 13. Figure 14 Figure 14. Figure 12 Figure 13 Figure 15. Tip: For a quick spacing gauge, use a 3mm hex wrench to set the correct spacing between the riving knife and the blade, as shown in Figure 16. Figure 16.
Page 26
Figure 17 Figure 17. NOTICE The sliding table is heavy, so you must get help lifting it during the installation pro- cess. We recommend two strong people lift the sliding table and an additional person help position the T-bolts into the mounting holes as the table is lowered.
Page 27
Figure 21. Important: As you align the sliding table parallel with the main saw blade in the next steps, the locating cap screw shown in Figure 22 must remain against the right side of the frame before securing the sliding table in place.
Page 31
The rip fence stop screws keep the fence from moving forward and slipping off the fence body, which could draw your hands and arms into the spinning blade during operation. Always keep these stop screws properly installed. Figure 35 Figure 35. Figure 36.
Page 32
NOTICE The rip fence body will scratch the table and rear extension wing surfaces if the ride height is not adjusted correctly. Note: The goal of the adjustments in the next step is to make the rip fence body ride height as close to and even with the table and extension wing surfaces without touching or scratching them.
Page 33
When properly positioned, the rail stop ring prevents the rip fence from contacting the saw blade. If this happens during cutting operations, flying metal debris could cause serious personal injury. Always make sure the rail stop ring is secured in the proper position before beginning operations.
Figure 51. Figure 52 Figure 52. Dust Collection DO NOT operate the Model G0699 without an adequate dust collection system. This saw creates substantial amounts of wood dust while operating. Failure to use a dust collec- tion system can result in short and long-term respiratory illness.
Power Connection Circuit Requirements Page 12 NOTICE The Model G0699 is prewired for 220V. If you plan to operate the machine at 440V, the two overload relays on the electrical panel must be replaced and the motors must be rewired (refer to 440V Conversion on Page 14 for detailed instructions).
The test run consists of verifying the follow- ing: Troubleshooting Page 64 Before starting the saw, make sure you have performed the preceding assembly and adjustment instructions, and you have read through the rest of the manual and are familiar with the various functions and safety features on this machine.
OMMEND that you read books, review industry trade magazines, or get formal training before beginning any projects. Regardless of the content in this section, Grizzly Industrial will not be held liable for accidents caused by lack of training. Operation Overview this...
