To ensure cutting accuracy when the fence is first installed, the fence should be aligned with the

miter slot.

To align the fence parallel with the miter slot:

1.DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER!

2.Make sure the miter slot is aligned with the bandsaw blade (refer to Aligning Table on G0513X Manual Page 30).

3.If the fence is mounted on the left-hand side of the blade, remove it and remount it next to the miter slot.

4.Loosen the knobs and cap screw that secure the fence rail to the table (see Figure 3 on Page 10).

5.Adjust the fence face parallel with the edge of the miter slot, as shown in Figure 10.

NOTICE

Adjusting the fence parallel to the miter slot does not guarantee straight cuts. The miter slot may need to be adjusted parallel to the side of the blade. Refer to the "Aligning Table" instructions on G0513X Manual Page 30.

G0513X2B specifications

The Grizzly G0513X2B is a powerful and versatile bandsaw that caters to the needs of both professional woodworkers and hobbyists. Known for its robust construction and cutting capabilities, this machine is a staple in workshops around the world.

One of the standout features of the G0513X2B is its impressive 2 HP motor, which provides ample power to tackle a variety of cutting tasks. The motor is designed to operate on both 120V and 240V power, giving users flexibility based on their workshop setup. With a maximum cutting height of 12 inches and a maximum cutting width of 16 inches, this bandsaw can accommodate larger workpieces, making it ideal for resawing lumber, cutting curves, and creating intricate designs.

The G0513X2B is equipped with an impressive 14-inch resaw capacity, thanks to its high fence and superior blade design. The precision-ground cast iron table provides a stable support base, ensuring that users can make accurate and repeatable cuts. Additionally, the table tilts from 0 to 45 degrees, which further enhances its versatility for bevel cuts.

Another notable technology in the Grizzly G0513X2B is its ball-bearing blade guides. These guides promote smoother operation and improve precision while significantly reducing friction, which can extend the life of the blade. The oversized upper and lower blade wheels are also a key feature, as they enhance the stability of the blade and reduce vibration during operation.

The bandsaw also includes an easy-to-use tension adjustment mechanism, which allows for quick changes of the blade tension based on the material and specific cutting needs. This feature is complemented by an integrated rack-and-pinion guide system, facilitating smooth and precise adjustments to the cutting height and angle.

Safety is a paramount concern in any woodworking environment, and the G0513X2B does not disappoint. It is equipped with a safety blade guard that can be easily adjusted, ensuring that users maintain a safe distance from the blade during operation. The design also incorporates a foot brake that quickly halts the blade upon release of the power switch, adding an extra layer of safety.

In conclusion, the Grizzly G0513X2B stands out with its robust motor, high resaw capacity, and precision features. It's an exceptional choice for anyone looking to enhance their woodworking capabilities with a reliable and efficient bandsaw.
