Once the assembly is complete and the adjust- ments are done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test the machine.

Turn on the power supply at the main panel. Press the START button. Make sure that your finger is poised on the STOP but- ton, just in case there’s a problem. The Wood Lathe should run smoothly, with lit- tle or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be investigated and corrected before operat- ing the machine further.

DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjust the machine while it is running. Wait until the machine is turned off, unplugged and all working parts have come to a rest before you do anything! Serious personal injury may occur.

If noises occur that cannot be found by visual inspection, feel free to contact our service depart- ment for help.

If the lathe runs smoothly, try mounting a piece of turning stock. If a problem exists, stop the machine and review all the adjust- ments. Call for assistance, if needed.

Adjust the tool rest as close to the workpiece as possible without actually coming in contact with the workpiece. Test by hand turning the work- piece before turning lathe on. Ensure that the lathe chisel is fully supported by the tool rest. Support the lathe chisel on the tool rest with one hand, while controlling the chisel with the other hand. Figure 20. For outboard turning, it may be desirable to use a free standing tool rest.

At the heart of the Grizzly G1067Z is a potent 2 HP motor, providing ample power to handle a wide range of materials including hardwood, softwood, and plywood.

With a maximum rip capacity of 30 inches to the right, and 12 inches to the left, users can confidently cut larger sheets of material without compromising accuracy.

One of the signature features of the G1067Z is its built-in gravity rise stand. This unique design not only offers stability during use but also allows for easy maneuverability and storage.

Additionally, the table saw includes a riving knife and blade guard, which help to prevent kickback and enhance user safety during cutting tasks.

Another notable characteristic of the G1067Z is its precision-engineered table surface, crafted from high-quality cast iron. This ensures maximum flatness and stability, contributing to accurate cuts. The extension wings provide additional surface area, essential for larger projects, while the integrated miter gauge and fence system offers straightforward adjustments for repeated accuracy.
