Blade Guides

(G0613)

The blade guides have a basic factory adjust- ment, but due to shipping and storage we recom- mend that you readjust the blade guides yourself to ensure the cuts will to be your standards.

CUTTING HAZARD! Blades are sharp! Put on heavy leather gloves when handling a blade or making adjustments near a blade or cutter!

To adjust the blade guides:

1.Make sure the blade is oiled, tensioned, and tracking correctly.

2.DISCONNECT THE BANDSAW FROM POWER!

3.Raise and lock the bow in place and slide the guides together as close as you can and lock into place.

4.Loosen the two cap screws and the blade guide guard shown in Figure 39.

6.Tighten the cap screws.

Note: To access the cap screws on the other blade guide, you will have to remove the two Phillips head screws (Figure 40) and move the limit switch and its bracket out of the way.

7.Loosen the 14mm jam nuts and rotate the 7mm hex on top of the bearing eccentrics (Figure 41), and adjust the bearings against the side of the blade.

Tip: There should be no gap between the blade and the bearings. To set this clearance to zero without fighting the twist of the blade, remove the blade guide assemblies, set this clearance to the blade thickness, then rein- stall the blade guide assemblies.

Known for their robust construction and versatility, these machines provide superior performance in various woodworking applications, making them essential tools in any workshop.

The Grizzly G0613 is a 15-inch spiral head planer that stands out with its powerful 3HP motor capable of delivering exceptional cutting performance. One of its main features is the spiral cutterhead, which contains a series of sharp, durable carbide inserts that minimize tear-out and produce a smoother finish on the workpiece.

The G0614 is designed for convenience, boasting a compact size that allows for easy transport between job sites. Both models are equipped with a solid cast iron base that minimizes vibration during operation, ensuring precision and accuracy.

Key characteristics of both the G0613 and G0614 include an easy-to-use height adjustment mechanism, allowing for smooth raising and lowering of the cutterhead to achieve the desired thickness. Additionally, the user-friendly controls are intuitively positioned, making adjustments quick and efficient. The dust collection ports integrated into each machine promote a cleaner workspace by effectively capturing wood shavings and debris during operation.

Moreover, both planers are designed for durability. The heavy-duty construction materials, along with precision-machined parts, ensure that these machines can withstand the rigors of daily use in demanding environments. With a comprehensive warranty and excellent customer service from Grizzly, users can trust these planers to deliver consistent performance over the years.

Overall, the Grizzly G0613 and G0614 are excellent options for woodworkers seeking high-quality planing solutions that combine advanced technology, ease of use, and durable construction.
