Clean Up

The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy oil to prevent corrosion during shipment. Remove this protective coating with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s G7895 Citrus Degreaser. To clean thoroughly, some parts must be removed. For optimum performance from your machine, clean all moving parts or sliding contact surfaces. Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as acetone or brake parts cleaner that may damage painted surfaces. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using any type of cleaning product.

Gasoline and petroleum products have low flash points and can explode or cause fire if used to clean machinery. DO NOT use these products to clean the machinery.

Many cleaning solvents are toxic if inhaled. Minimize your risk by only using these products in a well ventilated area.

G7895—Grizzly Citrus Degreaser

This natural, citrus-based degreaser is a great solution for removing export grease, and it’s much safer to work around than nasty solvents.

The G0632 and its com- ponents are very heavy. Get lifting help or use power lifting equipment such as a fork lift to move heavy items.

2.Using the help of assistants, carefully lift the lathe onto the stands and align the mounting holes.

Note: The headstock end of the lathe is the heaviest and usually requires two people for lifting that end.
