SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE

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

Schedule

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

Daily Check:

•Vacuum all dust on and around the machine.

•Wipe down tables and all other unpainted cast iron with a metal protectant.

•Worn or damaged wires.

•Any other unsafe condition.

Monthly Check:

•V-belt tension, damage, or wear.

•Clean/vacuum dust build up.

•Replace batteries in control panel and digital sensor as needed.

Cleaning

Cleaning the Model G0495X is relatively easy. Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any resin has built up, use a resin dissolving cleaner to remove it. Treat all unpainted cast iron and steel with a non-staining lubricant after cleaning.

Unpainted Cast Iron

Protect the unpainted cast iron surfaces on the table by wiping the table clean after every use— this ensures moisture from wood dust does not remain on bare metal surfaces.

Keep tables rust-free with regular applications of products like G96® Gun Treatment, SLIPIT®, or Boeshield® T-9 (see Section 5: Accessories on Page 29 for more details).

Lubrication

Since all bearings on the G0495X are sealed and permanently lubricated, simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced. DO NOT lubricate them.

Below is a list of components that require periodic lubrication. Be careful not to over-lubricate these components. Large amounts of lubricant will attract sawdust, causing the metal components to gum up and bind.

Fence: Place one or two drops of light machine oil on the fence pivot points (Figure 44) as needed.

Gears: Use a small brush to apply multi-purpose grease to the worm gear shafts and gears (Parts 96, 82 and 83) indicated on Page 47.

G0495X specifications

The Grizzly G0495X is a versatile and powerful tool designed for woodworking enthusiasts and professionals alike. This hybrid table saw combines cutting-edge technology with traditional craftsmanship, ensuring precision and efficiency in every project.

At the heart of the G0495X is its robust 3 HP motor, which delivers exceptional power to handle even the toughest hardwoods with ease. This heavy-duty drive system ensures smooth and reliable performance, reducing the risk of motor burnout during extended use. The saw's belt drive system further enhances its capability, providing a high degree of torque for challenging cutting tasks.

One of the standout features of the G0495X is its large cast iron table. Measuring a generous 30” x 42”, it provides ample workspace for handling larger materials while ensuring stability and accuracy in cuts. The precision-ground surface of the table reduces friction, allowing for smoother movement of wood across the surface. Additionally, the table features an integrated T-style miter gauge slot, offering the user versatility for various cutting angles.

In terms of safety, the G0495X is equipped with several important features. The riving knife and blade guard help to prevent kickbacks, making it safer to use, particularly for novices. The easy-to-use height and bevel adjustment mechanisms allow users to make quick changes to the blade settings for different cut types.

The saw also incorporates advanced dust collection capabilities. With a 4” dust port, it connects to most standard dust collection systems, significantly reducing the mess and maintaining a clean workspace. This feature not only keeps the area tidy but also enhances the user’s visibility while working.

Another notable characteristic of the Grizzly G0495X is its versatility. This table saw can handle various cutting tasks, from rip cuts to crosscuts, making it suitable for a range of woodworking projects, including furniture making, cabinetry, and more. The built-in extension table and side wings also expand the cutting capacity for larger projects.

Overall, the Grizzly G0495X stands out as a reliable and powerful table saw equipped with premium features that cater to both amateur and professional woodworkers. Its combination of performance, safety, and advanced technologies makes it an excellent investment for anyone serious about woodworking.
