Safety Instructions for Machinery

7.ONLY ALLOW TRAINED AND PROP- ERLY SUPERVISED PERSONNEL TO OPERATE MACHINERY. Make sure operation instructions are safe and clearly understood.

8.KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. Keep all children and visitors a safe dis- tance from the work area.

9.MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF. Use padlocks, master switches, and remove start switch keys.

10.NEVER LEAVE WHEN MACHINE IS RUNNING. Turn power OFF and allow all moving parts to come to a complete stop before leaving machine unattended.

11.DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. DO NOT use machin- ery in damp, wet locations, or where any flammable or noxious fumes may exist.

12.KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN AND WELL LIT. Clutter and dark shadows may cause accidents.

13.USE A GROUNDED EXTENSION CORD RATED FOR THE MACHINE AMPERAGE. Undersized cords overheat and lose power. Replace extension cords if they become damaged. DO NOT use extension cords for 220V machinery.

14.ALWAYS DISCONNECT FROM POWER SOURCE BEFORE SERVICING MACHINERY. Make sure switch is in OFF position before reconnecting.

15.MAINTAIN MACHINERY WITH CARE. Keep blades sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

16.MAKE SURE GUARDS ARE IN PLACE AND WORK CORRECTLY BEFORE USING MACHINERY.

17.REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Make a habit of checking for keys and adjusting wrenches before turn- ing machinery ON.

18.CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS BEFORE USING MACHINERY. Check for binding and alignment of parts, broken parts, part mounting, loose bolts, and any other conditions that may affect machine operation. Repair or replace damaged parts.

19.USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Refer to the instruction manual for recom- mended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury.

20.DO NOT FORCE MACHINERY. Work at the speed for which the machine or acces- sory was designed.

21.SECURE WORKPIECE. Use clamps or a vise to hold the workpiece when practi- cal. A secured workpiece protects your hands and frees both hands to operate the machine.

22.DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper foot- ing and balance at all times.

23.MANY MACHINES WILL EJECT THE WORKPIECETOWARDTHEOPERATOR. Know and avoid conditions that cause the workpiece to "kickback."

24.ALWAYS LOCK MOBILE BASES (IF USED) BEFORE OPERATING MACHINERY.

25.BE AWARE THAT CERTAIN DUST MAY BE HAZARDOUS to the respiratory sys- tems of people and animals, especially fine dust. Make sure you know the hazards associated with the type of dust you will be exposed to and always wear a respirator approved for that type of dust.

G0592 specifications

The Grizzly G0592 is a high-performance milling machine designed to meet the demands of both professional and hobbyist woodworkers. Known for its robust construction and precise engineering, this machine combines versatility with durability, making it an essential tool for any woodworking shop.

One of the standout features of the G0592 is its powerful motor, which offers a significant amount of torque, enabling it to handle a variety of materials with ease. The machine is equipped with a 3 HP motor that operates on 220V single-phase power, providing consistent performance for heavy-duty milling tasks. This high power helps to minimize stalling or bogging down during operation, ensuring smooth and efficient cutting.

The G0592 also boasts a generous working table made from precision-ground cast iron, measuring 9” x 49”. This extensive surface area allows for the handling of larger workpieces and offers ample space for stock support. The table is fitted with T-slots, allowing for easy attachment of jigs, fixtures, and clamping tools, enhancing the versatility of the machine.

Another notable characteristic is its adjustable dovetail ways, which provide enhanced stability and precision during operation. This design helps in maintaining alignment and reduces wear on the machine over time. Additionally, the G0592 features a variable speed drive that allows users to adjust the spindle speed from 60 to 4,000 RPM, accommodating various cutting applications ranging from heavy milling to delicate engraving.

The head of the G0592 is also a significant aspect of its design. It can be swiveled up to 90 degrees, facilitating angular cuts and increasing the range of milling operations possible. Moreover, the machine includes a digital readout (DRO) for both the table and spindle positions, providing real-time feedback and enhanced accuracy during operations.

Safety features, such as an emergency stop button and a protective enclosure around the spindle, are integrated into the G0592 to ensure a safe working environment. Overall, the Grizzly G0592 is engineered for those who value precision and performance in their milling tasks, making it a reliable choice in both professional and amateur settings. Its robust build, ample features, and user-friendly design distinguish it as a leading option in the milling machine market.
