IMPORTANT: The steps below are intended to be performed in succession with the steps involved in checking the outfeed table. Do not continue until you have followed those steps.

To adjust the table parallelism:

1.Place the straightedge on the outfeed table so it hangs over the cutterhead, then lower the outfeed table until the straightedge just touches the cutterhead body, as shown in Figure 46 (rotate the cutterhead if neces- sary).

2.Remove the screw cover (Figure 51) cover- ing each set screw on the outfeed table.

Note: It may help to clean the screw covers with electrical parts cleaner. Push duct tape firmly against the cover, then pull straight up.

3.Loosen each set screw (Figure 51) two turns.

4.Place the straightedge in one of the positions shown in Figure 47, and adjust the table by turning the eccentric bushings (Figures 52 & 53) as needed with an adjustable wrench so that the straightedge touches the cutterhead while lying flat across the outfeed table. Repeat this step with each of the remaining straightedge positions as many times as nec- essary until the outfeed table is parallel with the cutterhead to within 0.010"-0.012".

Note: Setting the outfeed table parallel to the cutterhead within 0.010"-0.012" will produce high quality results. Going lower than this number will produce minimal gain.

5.Tighten the set screws and replace the screw covers on the outfeed table.

6.Remove each of the four screw covers on the infeed table, and loosen the set screws underneath.

7.Place the straightedge halfway across the infeed table and halfway over the outfeed table, then adjust the infeed table even with the outfeed table, as shown in Figure 49.

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.
