Grizzly G1019 instruction manual Table Adjustments, Support Bearings

Support Bearings

The support bearings back-up the blade during the sawing operation. To adjust the support bear- ings, loosen the thumbscrews on the upper assembly or the setscrews on the lower assembly which secure the support bearing shafts. See Figure 27. Adjust the shafts in or out so that the upper and lower support bearings are within 1/64" of the back edge of the blade. Tighten the screws.

Guide Blocks

The guide blocks ensure that the blade stays aligned laterally. For optimum support, the guide block assemblies should be adjusted so they are just behind the gullet line (the hollow points) of the blade. To adjust the guide block assemblies, loosen the thumbscrews securing the guide block yoke assemblies and move in or out in relation to the blade gullets. Once adjusted, retighten the thumbscrews.

To adjust the guide blocks laterally, loosen the guide block lateral adjustment thumbscrews and adjust each block so it is about 0.004" from the blade. This is about the same thickness as a dol- lar bill. Retighten the thumbscrews and turn the upper wheel by hand through a complete revolu- tion of the blade length to ensure that the blade weld passes through the guide blocks unhin- dered.

Table Adjustments

The bandsaw table will tilt left 10° and right 45° from horizontal. When tilting the table to the right, the positive stop adjusting bolt automatically indexes the table back to perpendicular to the blade.

To tilt the table to the right:

1.Loosen the two trunnion knobs below the table trunnions. See Figure 28 for location.

2.Position the table to the desired angle. Refer to the angle gauge on the front table support trunnion.

3.Tighten the trunnion knobs.
