Dust Collection

DO NOT operate the Model G0633/G0634 without an adequate dust collection system. This machine creates substantial amounts of wood dust while operating. Failure to use a dust collection system can result in short and long-term respiratory illness.

Recommended CFM at Each Dust Port: 400

Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with the rating of the dust collector. To determine the CFM at the dust port, you must consider these variables: (1) CFM rating of the dust col- lector, (2) hose type and length between the dust collector and the machine, (3) number of branches or wyes, and (4) amount of other open lines throughout the system. Explaining how to calculate these variables is beyond the scope of this manual. Consult an expert or pur- chase a good dust collection "how-to" book.

G0633/G0634 Jointer/Planer Combo Machine

To connect a dust collection hose:

1.Fit the 4" dust hose over the jointer dust port, (see Figure 15), or over the planer dust port (see Figure 16), depending upon which operation mode is setup, and secure in place with a hose clamp.

2.Tug the hose to make sure it does not come off.

Note: A tight fit is necessary for proper per- formance.

G0633/G0634 specifications

The Grizzly G0633 and G0634 models are two impressive machines in the realm of woodworking and metalworking equipment. Both models have gained a loyal following among woodworkers and metal fabricators for their exceptional performance, reliability, and innovative features.

One of the most prominent characteristics of the Grizzly G0633 is its robust build quality. Constructed from heavy-duty cast iron, this bandsaw promises durability and stability during operation, minimizing vibrations and ensuring clean, precise cuts. The G0634, an evolution of the G0633, offers enhanced features that cater to both hobbyists and professionals in various industries.

Both models boast powerful motors that ensure smooth and efficient operation. The G0633 is equipped with a 1 HP motor, while the G0634 comes with a more robust 1.5 HP option, allowing for deeper cuts and handling denser materials. This increased power translates to faster material removal rates and improved productivity on the shop floor.

The G0633/G0634 features a dual-speed function, allowing users to adjust the blade speed according to the material being processed. This flexibility is crucial for achieving optimal results on different materials, whether it's hardwood, softwood, or non-ferrous metals. Additionally, the blade guides on both models are precision-engineered, ensuring minimal friction and longer blade life.

Another standout feature is the large cutting capacity these machines offer. The G0633 provides a resounding 12 inches of throat depth, while the G0634 expands this to 14 inches. This increased capacity is a significant advantage for users tackling larger projects or working with oversized stock.

For user convenience, both models are designed with easy adjustments in mind. The quick-release blade tensioning system simplifies blade changes, while the height-adjustable table enhances user ergonomics. The tables are also made of high-quality cast iron, providing a stable surface for workpieces.

Incorporating advanced safety features, the G0633 and G0634 prioritize operator protection. Each model is equipped with a blade brake system that halts blade movement almost instantaneously when the safety switch is triggered. This is a critical function for preventing accidents during operation.

Ultimately, the Grizzly G0633 and G0634 stand out in the market for their excellent balance of power, versatility, and safety. With their outstanding cutting capabilities and engineered precision, these bandsaws are excellent choices for any workshop aimed at producing high-quality workpieces. Whether for a professional environment or a dedicated hobby shop, both the G0633 and G0634 continue to meet and exceed the expectations of craftsmen and creators everywhere.
