Clean Up

The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy oil to protect them from corrosion during ship- ment. Remove this protective coating with a sol- vent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly, some parts may need to be removed. For opti- mum performance from your machine, make sure you clean all moving parts or sliding contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid chlo- rine-based solvents, such as acetone or brake parts cleaner, as they may damage painted sur- faces should they come in contact. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using any type of cleaning product.

Gasoline and petroleum products have low flash points and could cause an explosion or fire if used to clean machinery. DO NOT use gasoline or petroleum products to clean the machinery.

Many of the solvents commonly used to clean machinery can be toxic when inhaled or ingest- ed. Lack of ventilation while using these sol- vents could cause seri- ous personal health risks or fire. Take precautions from this hazard by only using cleaning solvents in a well ventilated area.

Site Considerations

Floor Load

The Model G0451 weighs 1309 lbs. and has a base footprint of 54½" W x 39" D. Most commer- cial floors are suitable for your machine. Some residential floors may require additional reinforce- ment to support both the machine and operator.

Working Clearances

Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or other machinery when establishing a location for your saw. See Figure 17 for the maximum work- ing clearances of the Model G0451.
