Grizzly G1182ZHW, G1182ZX instruction manual Cutter Guard Belt Guard, Belt guard attachment

Cutter Guard Belt Guard

1.The cutterhead guard pivot shaft is slotted on the end. This slot fits over the tang at the end of a spring located in the spring housing. See Figure 11. Look down the pivot hole to get an idea where this tang is located.

2.Remove the setscrew from the slotted end of the pivot shaft. Rotate the spring housing counter-clockwise approximately 1 turn. Insert the guard shaft into the pivot hole, lin- ing up the slot with the tang.

3.The cutterhead guard shaft should fit all the way inside the pivot hole when properly engaged with the spring tang and should hold the guard against the fence.

4.The cutterhead guard should be held firmly against the fence, completely cover the cut- terhead, and move back into position when released. If this has not been achieved, repeat Steps 2-3, increasing the number of turns on the spring housing to 11⁄2. Re-install the setscrew into the end of the pivot shaft.

Insert the 5⁄16" - 18 x 21⁄2" mounting bolt through the belt guard and attach to the jointer base cast- ing. Do not over tighten. See Figure 12.
