Additional Safety For Dust Collectors

1.THIS DUST COLLECTOR IS TO BE USED FOR WOOD DUST COLLECTION ONLY. Do not use this dust collector to pick up liq- uids and metal scrap including, but not lim- ited to, nails and filings. Metallic debris will contact the spinning impeller and could spark. The spark could then cause a saw- dust explosion and severe fire hazard. Also, do not pick up material which cannot safely pass through the impeller such as solid wood scraps.

2.DO NOT PLACE YOUR HANDS OR TOOLS NEAR THE OPEN INLET during operation for any reason including, but not limited to, unclogging material and testing suction. The impeller could cause serious damage to body parts if touched while spin- ning.

3.PROBLEMS CONCERNED WITH ANY MOVING PARTS or accessories must be investigated and corrected with the power disconnected and after everything has come to a complete stop.

4.SUSPENDED DUST PARTICLES IN CON- JUNCTION WITH AN IGNITION SOURCE, may cause an explosion. Do not operate the dust collector in areas where explosion risks would be high if dust were dispersed into the area. Areas of high risk include, but are not limited to, areas near pilot lights and/or open flames.

5.DO NOT ALLOW STEEL TO STRIKE AGAINST IMPELLER WHICH MAY PRO- DUCE A SPARK. Sparks can smolder in wood dust for a long time before fire or flame is detected. If metal contacts metal during operation, immediately turn off the dust collector, unplug the power cord from the outlet or flip the disconnect switch and wait for all moving parts to stop. Remove collection bags and empty the dust into an approved air tight metal container in case of spark. Remedy the metal to metal contact problem before resuming operation.

6.WHEN EMPTYING DUST FROM THE COLLECTION BAGS, wear a respirator and safety glasses. Empty dust into an approved container and dispose of properly.

7.IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENC- ING DIFFICULTIES PERFORMING THE INTENDED OPERATION, stop using the machine! Then contact our service depart- ment or ask a qualified expert how the oper- ation should be performed.

8.BE AWARE THAT CERTAIN WOODS MAY CAUSE AN ALLERGIC reaction in people and animals, especially when exposed to fine dust. Make sure you know what type of wood dust you will be exposed to in case there is a possibility of an allergic reaction. Always wear an approved respira- tor!

No list of safety guidelines can be com- plete. Every shop environment is different. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to follow guidelines could result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment or poor work results.

DO NOT use the dust collector for any other purpose besides collecting dust from con- nected woodworking machines. A dust col- lector should NEVER be used as an air cleaner. For safest use, wear a respirator and use an air cleaner in addition to the dust collector.

Primarily designed as a 16” band saw, it caters to both hobbyists and professionals, providing the capability to handle a wide range of cutting tasks with precision and ease.

One of the standout features of the G0562 is its powerful 2 HP motor, which ensures reliable performance and the ability to tackle thick hardwoods without stalling or compromise on speed. With a blade speed of 3,100 feet per minute, it allows for quick and efficient cutting, making it ideal for both resawing and intricate curves. The machine can accommodate blade widths ranging from 1/8” to 3/4”, providing users with the flexibility to choose the appropriate blade for their specific tasks.

Additionally, the saw features high-quality, precision ball bearings that contribute to smooth blade movement and extended longevity.

For safety and ease of use, the G0562 includes an oversized cast iron table that measures 16” x 24”, providing ample workspace and stability during cutting operations. The table is also tilt-adjustable, allowing for bevel cuts, which adds to its versatility. Furthermore, Grizzly has implemented an effective dust collection port, ensuring a cleaner workspace by minimizing sawdust accumulation.

In summary, the Grizzly Model G0562 is a well-engineered band saw equipped with a powerful motor, impressive resaw capacity, and built with durable materials.
