Grizzly H8192 owner manual Maintenance, Schedule, Cleaning, Lubrication, Sanding Belt Tracking

Always disconnect power to the machine before performing maintenance. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.

Schedule

For optimum performance from your machine, follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any specific instructions given in this section.

Before Each Use, Check and Correct:

•Loose mounting bolts.

•Damaged or worn sanding belt or disc.

•Worn or damaged wires.

•Any other unsafe condition.

After Each Use:

•Clean/vacuum dust buildup on tables and motor.

After 50 Hours of Use:

•Check and correct V-belt tension, damage, or wear.

Cleaning

Cleaning the Model H8192 is relatively easy. Vacuum excess sawdust, and wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth. Wiping the table clean after every use ensures moisture from wood dust does not remain on bare metal surfaces.

If any resin has built up, use a resin dissolving cleaner to remove it. After cleaning, treat all unpainted cast iron and steel with a non-staining lubricant with products like G96® Gun Treatment, SLIPIT®, or Boeshield® T-9.

Lubrication

Since all bearings are sealed and permanently lubricated, simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced. Do not lubricate them.

Sanding Belt

Tracking

The sanding belt must track in the center of the top pulley to avoid damaging itself during use.

To adjust the sanding belt tracking:

1.Turn the sander ON.

2.Observe the sanding belt as it moves over the top pulley (see Figure 31).
