SECTION 1: SAFETY  
For Your Own Safety, Read Instruction  
Manual Before Operating this Machine  
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This  
manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level of  
importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember  
that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper  
accident prevention measures.  
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
WILL result in death or serious injury.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
COULD result in death or serious injury.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert  
against unsafe practices.  
This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about  
proper operation of the machine.

Additional Safety for Jointers  
1. JOINTER KICKBACK. "Kickback" is when  
6. KICKBACK ZONE. The "kickback zone"  
is the path directly through the end of the  
infeed table. Never stand or allow others to  
stand in this area during operation.  
the workpiece is thrown off the jointer table  
by the force of the cutterhead. Always use  
push blocks and safety glasses to reduce  
the likelihood of injury from kickback. If you  
do not understand what kickback is, or how  
it occurs, DO NOT operate this machine.  
7. MAXIMUM CUTTING DEPTH. The maxi-  
1
mum cutting depth for one pass is 8".  
Never attempt any single cut deeper!  
2. OUTFEED TABLE ALIGNMENT. Keep the  
top surface of the outfeed table aligned with  
the knives at top dead center (the highest  
point during rotation) to avoid kickback and  
personal injuries.  
8. JOINTING WITH THE GRAIN. Jointing  
against the grain or jointing end grain is  
dangerous and could produce chatter or  
excessive chip out. Always joint with the  
grain.  
3. PUSH BLOCKS. Always use push blocks  
whenever surface planing. Never pass your  
hands directly over the cutterhead without a  
push block.  
9. GUARDS IN PLACE. All operations must  
be performed with the guard in place.  
10. PROPER CUTTING. When cutting, always  
keep the workpiece moving toward the  
outfeed table until the workpiece has passed  
completely over the cutterhead. Never back  
the work toward the infeed table.  
4. WORKPIECE SUPPORT. Supporting the  
workpiece adequately at all times while  
cutting is crucial for making safe cuts and  
avoiding injury. Never attempt to make a cut  
with an unstable workpiece.  
11. SAFE KNIFE PROJECTION. Knives should  
never be set in the cutterhead so they proj-  
ect more than 0.125" (18"). Incorrectly set  
knives may come loose during operation,  
may become damaged, or may damage the  
cutterhead.  
5. USING GOOD STOCK. Jointing safety  
begins with your lumber. Inspect your  
stock carefully before you feed it over the  
cutterhead. Never joint a board that has  
loose knots, nails, or staples. If you have  
any doubts about the stability or structural  
integrity of your stock, DO NOT joint it!  
12. MOBILE BASE. Always lock the mobile  
base wheel before operating.  
No list of safety guidelines can be complete.  
Every shop environment is different. Always  
consider safety first, as it applies to your  
individual working conditions. Use this and  
other machinery with caution and respect.  
Failure to do so could result in serious per-  
sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor  
work results.  
Like all machines there is danger associ-  
ated with the Model G0604. Accidents are  
frequently caused by lack of familiarity or  
failure to pay attention. Use this machine  
with respect and caution to lessen the pos-  
sibility of operator injury. If normal safety  
precautions are overlooked or ignored, seri-  
ous personal injury may occur.

SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS  
Grounding  
110V Operation  
In the event of an electrical short, grounding  
reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is  
equipped with a power cord that has a grounding  
wire, which must be properly connected to the  
grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the outlet  
must be properly installed and grounded. All elec-  
trical connections must be made in accordance  
Serious personal injury could occur if you  
connect the machine to the power source  
before you have completed the set up pro-  
cess. DO NOT connect the machine to the  
power source until instructed to do so.  
with local codes and ordinances.  
Amperage Draw  
The Model G0604 motor draws the following  
amps under maximum load:  
Electrocution or fire could  
result if this machine is  
not grounded correctly  
or if your electrical con-  
figuration does not com-  
ply with local and state  
codes. Ensure compliance  
by checking with a quali-  
fied electrician!  
Maximum Load...................................... 13 Amps  
Circuit Requirements  
We recommend connecting this machine to a  
dedicated circuit with a verified ground, using the  
circuit size given below. Never replace a circuit  
breaker with one of higher amperage without con-  
sulting a qualified electrician to ensure compli-  
ance with wiring codes. If you are unsure about  
the wiring codes in your area or you plan to  
connect your machine to a shared circuit, you  
may create a fire hazard—consult a qualified  
electrician to reduce this risk.  
Extension Cords  
We do not recommend the use of extension  
cords. Instead, arrange the placement of your  
equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate  
the need for extension cords.  
If you must use an extension cord at 110V with  
your machine:  
Recommended Circuit Size...................15 Amps  
Use at least a 14 gauge cord that does not  
exceed 50 feet in length!  
Plug/Receptacle Type  
Included Plug/Receptacle ................ NEMA 5-15  
The extension cord must also contain a  
ground wire and plug pin.  
Avoid cords over 50 feet long unless they  
have been sized by a qualified electrician.

Cleanup  
Wheel Assembly  
The unpainted cast iron surfaces are coated with  
a waxy oil to protect them from corrosion during  
shipment. Remove this protective coating with a  
solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such  
as Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thor-  
oughly, some parts may need to be removed. For  
optimum performance from your machine,  
make sure you clean all moving parts or slid-  
ing contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid  
chlorine-based solvents, such as acetone or  
brake parts cleaner, as they may damage painted  
surfaces should they come in contact.

DO NOT operate the Model G0604 with-  
out 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 Dust Port: 400 CFM  
Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with  
the rating of the dust collector. To determine the  
CFM at the dust port, you must take into account  
many variables, including the CFM rating of the  
dust collector, the length of hose between the  
dust collector and the machine, the amount of  
branches or wyes, and the amount of other open  
lines throughout the system. Explaining this cal-  
culation is beyond the scope of this manual. If you  
are unsure of your system, consult an expert or  
purchase a good dust collection "how-to" book.

Fence Movement: The fence has a lock that  
keeps it in position (Figure 23). To move the  
fence, loosen the lock and slide the fence where  
needed.  
Stock Inspection  
and Requirements  
Here are some rules to follow when choos-  
ing and jointing stock:  
Jointing and surface planing WITH the  
grain produces a better finish and is safer  
for the operator. Cutting with the grain is  
described as feeding the stock on the jointer  
so the grain points down and toward you  
as viewed on the edge of the stock (Figure  
25).  
Fence  
Lock  
Figure 23. Fence lock location.  
Note: If the grain changes direction along  
the edge of the board, decrease the cutting  
depth and make additional passes.  
Fence Tilting: The tilt lock (Figure 24) secures  
the fence at any position in the available range.  
The plunger locks into an indexing ring to eas-  
ily set the fence tilt to 90° after moving it. Two  
positive stops stop the fence at 45° inward and  
45° outward (135°) for common 45° bevel cuts.  
Even when the fence is resting against the posi-  
tive stops, the tilt lock must be tightened before  
cutting.  
DO NOT joint or surface plane stock that  
contains large or loose knots. Injury to the  
operator or damage to the workpiece can  
occur if the knots become dislodged during  
the cutting operation.  
DO NOT joint or surface plane against the  
grain direction. Cutting against the grain  
increases the likelihood of stock kickback, as  
well as tear-out on the workpiece.

Remove foreign objects from the stock.  
Make sure that any stock you process with  
the jointer is clean and free of any dirt,  
nails, staples, tiny rocks or any other foreign  
objects that may damage the jointer blades.  
Squaring Stock  
Squaring stock involves four steps performed  
in the order below:  
Only process natural wood fiber through  
your jointer. Never joint MDF, particle board,  
plywood, laminates or other synthetically  
made materials.  
1. Surface Plane On The Jointer—The con-  
cave face of the workpiece is surface planed flat  
with the jointer.  
Make sure all stock is sufficiently dried  
before jointing. Wood with a moisture con-  
tent over 20% will cause unnecessary wear  
on the knives and poor cutting results.  
Make sure your workpiece exceeds  
the minimum dimension requirements  
(Figures 26 & 27) before edge jointing or  
surface planing, or it may break or kick  
back during the operation!  
2. Surface Plane On a Thickness Planer—The  
opposite face of the workpiece is surface planed  
flat with a thickness planer.

To surface plane on the jointer:  
Surface Planing  
1. Read and understand SECTION 1: SAFETY,  
beginning on Page 6.  
The purpose of surface planing on the jointer is  
to make one flat face on a piece of stock (see  
Figures 28 & 29) to prepare it for surface planing  
on a thickness planer.  
2. Make sure your stock has been inspected  
for dangerous conditions as described in the  
Stock Inspection & Requirements instruc-  
tions, beginning on Page 22.  
3. Set the cutting depth for your operation. (We  
NOTICE  
suggest 132" for surface planing.)  
If you are not experienced with a jointer,  
set the depth of cut to zero, and practice  
feeding the workpiece across the tables as  
described. This procedure will better pre-  
pare you for the actual operation.  
4. Make sure your fence is set to 90˚.  
5. If your workpiece is cupped (warped), place  
it so the concave side is face down on the  
surface of the infeed table.  
6. Start the jointer.  
Failure to use push blocks when surface  
planing may result in cutterhead contact,  
which will cause serious personal injury.  
Always use push blocks to protect your  
hands when surface planing on the jointer.  
7. With a push block in each hand, press the  
workpiece against the table and fence with  
firm pressure, and feed the workpiece over  
the cutterhead.  
Figure 28. Typical surface planing operation.  
Note: If your leading hand (with push block)  
gets within 4" of the cutterhead, lift it up and  
over the cutterhead, and place the push  
block on the portion of the workpiece that is  
on the outfeed table. Now, focus your pres-  
sure on the outfeed end of the workpiece  
while feeding, and repeat the same action  
with your trailing hand when it gets within 4"  
of the cutterhead. To keep your hands safe,  
DO NOT let them get closer than 4" from the  
cutterhead when it is moving!  
8. Repeat Step 7 until the entire surface is  
flat.

To bevel cut on the jointer:  
Bevel Cutting  
1. Read and understand SECTION 1: SAFETY,  
beginning on Page 6.  
The purpose of bevel cutting is to cut a specific  
angle into the edge of a workpiece (see Figures  
32 & 33).  
2. Make sure your stock has been inspected  
for dangerous conditions as described in the  
Stock Inspection instructions, beginning on  
Page 22.  
The Model G0604 has preset fence stops at 45˚  
inward, 90˚, and 45˚ outward (135˚). If your situ-  
ation requires a different angle, the fence can be  
locked anywhere between these angles.  
3. Set the cutting depth for your operation. (We

Inspecting Knives  
Adjusting/Replacing  
Knives  
The height of the knives can be inspected with a  
straightedge to ensure that they are set evenly  
with the outfeed table at their highest point in the  
cutterhead rotation.  
Setting the knives correctly is crucial to the proper  
operation of the jointer and is very important in  
keeping the knives sharp. If one knife is higher  
than the others, it will do the majority of the work,  
and thus, dull much faster than the others.  
To inspect the knives:  
1. DISCONNECT JOINTER FROM POWER  
There are two options for setting the knives—the  
straightedge method and the knife setting jig  
method. Each option has advantages and dis-  
advantages and the correct one for you will  
become a matter of personal preference. For  
best results, the tables must be parallel with each  
other (Checking/Adjusting Table Parallelism  
on Page 36) and the outfeed table height must be  
properly set (Setting Outfeed Table Height on  
Page 38) before adjusting/replacing the knives.  
SOURCE!  
2. Remove the cutterhead guard or block it out  
of the way.  
3. Using a straightedge on the outfeed table,  
check the height of each knife at the positions  
shown in Figure 46.  
 
�  
 
Straightedge Method: A high quality straight-  
edge is held flat against the outfeed table and the  
knife heights are set to the bottom of the straight-  
edge, as shown in Figure 46. Because the knife  
projection height from the cutterhead is depen-  
dent on the outfeed table height, the outfeed table  
must be set as described in Setting Outfeed  
Table Height on Page 38 for this method to work  
correctly.  
When using a straightedge to set the knives, you  
will not need to move the outfeed table once it is  
set and you will always be assured that the knives  
are even with the outfeed table in their highest  
point of rotation—even if the cutterhead is not  
parallel with the outfeed table.

The knife setting jig makes it easy to ensure that  
the knives project out of the cutterhead evenly.  
After using the knife setting jig to set the knives,  
you have to re-adjust the outfeed table height to  
ensure that it is even with the knives at their high-  
est point of rotation. If you use the positive stops  
on the tables, reset them before operation.  
To adjust/replace the knives:  
1. DISCONNECT JOINTER FROM POWER  
SOURCE!  
2. Remove the cutterhead guard from the table  
and move the fence back as far as it will go.  
3. Remove the belt guard to expose the  
cutterhead pulley.  
4. Rotate the cutterhead pulley to get access to  
one of the cutterhead knives.  
5. Loosen the cutterhead gib bolts, starting in  
the middle, and alternating back and forth  
until all of the gib bolts are loose, but not fall-  
ing out.

height.  
The Model G0604 comes with both jack screws  
and springs inside the cutterhead to provide two  
options for adjusting the knives (see Figure 48).  
Note: Only one of these options is needed to set  
the knives—see Step 5 for clarification.  
—If you decide to use the jack screws, remove  
the springs from the cutterhead (they are  
located directly below the knives).  
—If you decide to use the springs, just  
thread the jack screws completely into the  
cutterhead so they will not get lost. Replace  
the gib and knife.

6. Remove and clean the gibs and clean inside  
the cutterhead slot to remove all pitch or saw-  
dust. Coat the knives and gibs with a metal  
protectant (Page 28), then fit the gibs back in  
the cutterhead with the new knives.  
8. Rotate the cutterhead to the first knife you  
started with. Slightly tighten all the gib bolts,  
starting in the middle and working your way to  
the ends by alternating left and right (Figure  
50). Repeat this step on the rest of the  
knives.  
7. Adjusting the knife heights:  
Jack Screws: Using a 3mm hex wrench, find  
the jack screws through the access holes in  
the cutterhead (Figure 49) and rotate the  
jack screws to raise or lower the knife. When  
the knife is set correctly, it will barely touch  
the bottom of the straightedge or the knife  
setting jig middle pad. Snug the gib bolts tight  
enough to just hold the knife in place. Repeat  
on the other side of the cutterhead, then  
repeat Steps 5–7 with the rest of the knives.

Checking Infeed Table  
To check the infeed table parallelism:  
Adjusting Table Parallelism  
For safe and proper cutting results, the tables  
must be parallel to the cutterhead. Adjusting them  
to be parallel is a task of precision and patience,  
and may take up to one hour to complete. Luckily,  
this is considered a permanent adjustment and  
should not need to be repeated for the life of the  
machine.  
1. Follow all the steps for checking the outfeed  
table parallelism to first make sure that the  
outfeed table is parallel with the cutterhead.  
2. Raise the outfeed table higher than the  
cutterhead.  
Due to the complex nature of this task, we rec-  
ommend that you double check the current table  
positions to make sure that they really need to be  
adjusted before starting. Refer to the previous two  
subsections if you have not just completed them.  
3. Place the straightedge halfway across the  
infeed table and halfway over the outfeed  
table, and adjust the infeed table even with  
the outfeed table, as shown in Figure 54.  
The tables have four eccentric bushings under  
each corner that allow the tables to be adjusted  
parallel. These eccentric bushings are locked in  
place by piggybacked set screws (one on top of  
the other) and adjust when unlocked and rotated.  
�  
���  
���  
The correct order for adjusting the table parallel-  
ism is to first adjust the outfeed table parallel with  
the cutterhead, then adjust the infeed table paral-  
lel with the outfeed table.  
Figure 54. Infeed and outfeed tables set evenly.  
4. Place the straightedge in the positions shown  
in Figure 55. In each position, the straight-  
edge should sit flat against both the outfeed  
table and the infeed table.  
When setting the outfeed table, all measurements  
must be made from the cutterhead body—not the  
knives—or results may get skewed the next time  
you change knives.  
IMPORTANT: The steps below are intended to  
be performed in succession with the procedures  
for checking the outfeed and infeed tables, begin-  
ning on Page 36. DO NOT CONTINUE UNTIL  
YOU HAVE FOLLOWED THOSE PROCEDURES  
FIRST!  
To adjust the table parallelism:  
1. Place the straightedge on the outfeed table  
so it hangs over the cutterhead, and lower  
the outfeed table until the straightedge just  
touches the cutterhead body, as shown in  
Figure 52 (rotate the cutterhead if neces-  
sary).  
Figure 55. Straightedge positions for checking  
infeed/outfeed table parallelism.  
—If the straightedge sits flat against both the  
infeed and outfeed table, then the tables are  
parallel. Set both table heights (Pages 38  
& 39) and replace the cutterhead guard.  
2. Remove the set screw from each of the four  
eccentric bushings (Figure 56) under the  
outfeed table, and loosen the set screws  
underneath those removed set screws.  
—If the straightedge does not sit flat against  
both the infeed and outfeed table in any  
of the positions, then follow the Adjusting  
Table Parallelism instructions.

The outfeed table height must be even with the  
top of the cutterhead knives. If the outfeed table is  
set too low, there will be snipe. If the outfeed table  
is set too high, the workpiece will hit the edge of  
the outfeed table during operation, increasing the  
chance of kickback.

may be necessary), so that the straightedge  
touches the cutterhead while lying flat across  
the outfeed table. Repeat this step with each  
of the remaining straightedge positions as  
necessary until the outfeed table is parallel  
with the cutterhead.

mined by using the feeler gauge or combina-  
tion of feeler gauges (see Figure 57).  
Setting Infeed Table  
The infeed table on the Model G0604 has  
positive stop bolts that, when properly set up,  
allow the operator to quickly adjust the infeed  
table between finish/final cuts and shaping/heavy  
cuts.  
We recommend setting the minimum depth of cut

most operations. DO NOT exceed 8" cut per  
pass on this machine or kickback and serious  
injury may occur!

Each positive stop bolt (Figure 58) controls the  
top or bottom range of the table movement. The  
jam nuts lock the positive stop bolt in position so  
it won't move during operation.
