SECTION 7: 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:

Loose mounting bolts.

Worn switch.

Worn or damaged wires.

Clean canister filter.

Check collection bag.

Any other unsafe condition.

Lubrication

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

Bag Cleaning

Always empty the collection bags on a regular basis. Emptying the collection bags allows the machine to operate at a much higher level of efficiency.

Always wear the appropriate respirator or dust mask and safety glasses when emptying the col- lection bags. Small dust particles can escape the bags during emptying, causing them to become airborne and easily inhaled. This microscopic air- borne dust is extremely unhealthy to breathe and can cause serious health problems.

While the Model G0583Z excels at collecting the majority of wood dust produced by your machines, it is not an air filter; therefore, we strongly rec- ommend the supplemental aid of a shop air filter such as the Grizzly G0572 or G9956. Air filters are designed to collect the smaller dust particles that dust collector bags cannot trap.

Always wear a respirator when emptying the dust collection bags on the dust collector. Sawdust may cause allergic reac- tions or respiratory prob- lems.
