SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE
Disconnect power to the machine when perform- ing any maintenance, assembly or adjustments. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.
Keep loose clothing rolled up and out of the way of machinery and keep hair pulled back.
Schedule
For optimum performance from your machine, follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any specific instructions given in this section.
Daily Check:
•Dust collector is completely powered down at the end of use.
•Loose mounting bolts.
•Worn switch or wires.
•Any other condition that would hamper the safe operation of this machine.
•Empty the lower collection bags before they become completely full.
Lubrication
Bag Cleaning
All dust collectors dis- perse fine dust which may cause allergic reactions or respiratory problems. Always wear a respirator when operating your dust collector.
Empty the lower collection bags on a regular basis to maintain dust collection efficiency.
Always wear the appropriate respirator or dust mask and safety glasses when emptying the col- lection bags. Small dust particles can escape the bags during emptying, causing them to become airborne and easily inhaled. This microscopic air- borne dust is extremely unhealthy to breathe and can cause serious health problems.
While the Model G0508 excels at collecting the majority of wood dust produced by your machines, we always recommend the supplemental aid of a shop air filter such as the Grizzly G5955, G9956, or G0572 (see Page 27). Air filters are designed to collect the smaller dust particles that a dust col- lector bags cannot trap.
Since all bearings are shielded and permanently lubricated, simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced. Do not lubricate them.
