Clean Up

 

Site Considerations

 

 

 

 

 

 

The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy oil to protect them from corrosion during ship- ment. Remove this protective coating with a sol- vent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly, some parts may need to be removed. For opti- mum performance from your machine, make sure you clean all moving parts or sliding contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid chlo- rine-based solvents as they may damage painted surfaces should they come in contact. Always fol- low the manufacturer’s instructions when using any type of cleaning product.

Gasoline and petroleum products have low flash points and could cause an explosion or fire if

used to clean machinery. DO NOT use gasoline or petroleum products to clean the machinery.

Smoking near solvents could ignite an explosion or fire and cause serious injury. DO NOT smoke while using solvents.

Many of the solvents commonly used to clean machinery can be toxic when inhaled or ingest- ed. Lack of ventilation while using these sol- vents could cause seri- ous personal health risks or fire. Take precautions from this hazard by only using cleaning solvents in a well ventilated area.

1.Workbench Load: The Model G8692 weighs 38 lbs and has a footprint of 10" x 18- 12". Most workbenches are suitable for your machine. If you are unsure that your work- bench could support the weight of the machine, additional build up to support the machine may be required.

2.Working Clearances: Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or other machinery when establishing a loca- tion for your bandsaw.

3.Lighting and Outlets: Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and pre- vent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be dedicated or large enough to handle amper- age requirements. Outlets should be located near each machine so power or extension cords are clear of high-traffic areas. Observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.

Unsupervised children and visitors inside your shop could cause serious person- al injury to themselves. Lock all entrances to the shop when you are away and DO NOT allow unsupervised children or visitors in your shop at any time!
