Additional Safety Instructions for Metal  
Cutting Bandsaws  
8. ATTENTION TO WORK AREA. Never  
leave a machine running and unattended.  
Pay attention to the actions of others in the  
area to avoid unintended accidents.  
1. BLADE CONDITION. Do not operate with  
dull, cracked or badly worn blade. Inspect  
blades for cracks and missing teeth before  
each use.  
9. MAINTENANCE/SERVICE. All inspec-  
tions, adjustments, and maintenance are  
to be done with the machine OFF and the  
power disconnected to the machine. Wait  
for all moving parts to come to a complete  
stop.  
2. HAND PLACEMENT. Never position fin-  
gers or thumbs in line with the cut. Hands  
could be crushed in vise or by falling  
machine components or cut by the blade.  
3. ENTANGLEMENT HAZARDS. Do not  
operate this bandsaw without blade guard  
in place. Otherwise, loose clothing, jewelry,  
long hair and work gloves can be drawn  
into working parts.  
10. HEARING PROTECTION & HAZARDS.  
Noise generated by blade and workpiece  
vibration, material handling, and power  
transmission can cause permanent hear-  
ing loss over time and interfere with com-  
munication and audible signals. Always  
wear hearing protection.  
4. BLADE REPLACEMENT. When replacing  
blades, make sure teeth face toward the  
workpiece. Wear gloves to protect hands  
and safety glasses to protect eyes.  
11. HOT SURFACES. Due to friction, the  
workpiece, chips, and some machine com-  
ponents can be hot enough to burn you.  
5. WORKPIECE HANDLING. Always sup-  
port the workpiece with table, vise, or other  
support fixture. Flag long pieces to avoid a  
tripping hazard. Never hold the workpiece  
with your hands during a cut.  
12. STARTING POSITION. Never turn the  
saw ON with the blade resting on the  
workpiece.  
6. LOSS OF STABILITY. Unsupported  
workpieces may jeopardize machine sta-  
bility and cause the machine to tip and fall,  
which could cause serious injury.  
13. EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at  
any time you are experiencing difficulties  
performing the intended operation, stop  
using the machine! Contact our Technical  
Support Department at (570) 546-9663.  
7. POWERINTERRUPTION. Unplugmachine  
after power interruption. Machines without  
magnetic switches can start up after power  
is restored.  
No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every shop environment is different. Like all  
machines there is danger associated with the Model G0622. Accidents are frequently caused by  
lack of familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use this machine with respect and caution to lessen  
the possibility of operator injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, serious  
personal injury may occur.

Clean Up  
Site Considerations  
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy  
oil to protect them from corrosion during ship-  
ment. Remove this protective coating with a sol-  
vent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as  
Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly,  
some parts may need to be removed. For opti-  
mum performance from your machine, make  
sure you clean all moving parts or sliding  
contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid chlo-  
rine-based solvents, such as acetone or brake  
parts cleaner, as they may damage painted sur-  
faces should they come in contact. Always follow  
the manufacturer’s instructions when using any  
type of cleaning product.  
Floor Load  
Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight  
and footprint specifications of your machine.  
Some floors may require additional reinforcement  
to support both the machine and operator.  
Placement Location  
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of  
material to be processed through each machine,  
and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or  
other machinery when establishing a location for  
your new machine. See Figure 4 for the minimum  
working clearances.  
 
Gasoline and petroleum  
products have low flash  
points and could cause  
an explosion or fire if  
used to clean machinery.  
DO NOT use gasoline or  
petroleum products to  
clean the machinery.  
�  
Many of the solvents  
commonly used to clean  
machinery can be toxic  
when inhaled or ingest-  
ed. Lack of ventilation  
while using these sol-  
vents could cause seri-  
ous personal health risks  
or fire. Take precautions  
from this hazard by only  
using cleaning solvents  
in a well ventilated area.  
Figure 4. Minimum working clearances.  
Unsupervised children and  
visitors inside your shop  
could cause serious per-  
sonal injury to themselves.  
Lock all entrances to the  
shop when you are away and  
DO NOT allow unsupervised  
children or visitors in your  
shop at any time!

SECTION 4: OPERATIONS  
Vise  
Operation Safety  
Always turn the saw OFF and allow the blade  
to come to a complete stop before using the  
vise! Failure to follow this caution may lead  
to injury.  
Damage to your eyes, lungs, and ears could  
result from using this machine without  
proper protective gear. Always wear safety  
glasses, a respirator, and hearing protection  
when operating this machine.  
The vise can hold material up to six inches wide  
and be set to cut angles from 0 to 45 degrees.  
To adjust the angle on the vise:  
1. Loosen the lock nut with a 12mm hex wrench  
or socket as shown in Figure 22.  
2. Use the scale as a guide to set your angle or  
use a machinist square to square the blade  
to the vise as shown in Figure 23.  
Loose hair and cloth-  
ing could get caught in

When deciding which type of blade to use, con-  
sider the type and thickness of material being cut.  
Refer to Figure 27 for recommended blade tooth  
(TPI) and speed (FPM) based on the workpiece  
material. The blade must have at least three teeth  
in contact with the workpiece.

Example: 24 TPI blade minimum workpiece thick-  
ness is .125" or (3/TPI). The teeth can strip off the  
blade if fewer than three teeth are in contact with  
the material.

Blade Guides  
Feed Rate  
The blade guides should be as close to the  
workpiece as possible. This will help ensure  
straight cuts by keeping the blade from twisting  
and drifting off the cut line.  
The feed rate is controlled by the spring and  
handle shown in Figure 29.  
To adjust the feed rate:  
To adjust the blade guides:  
Slower: Twist the handle clockwise to add ten-  
sion to the spring.  
1. Loosen the knob shown in Figure 28 and slide  
the blade guide as close to the workpiece as  
possible, then tighten the knob.  
Faster: Twist the handle counterclockwise to  
remove tension from the spring.

Operation Tips  
The following tips will help you safely and effec-  
tively operate your bandsaw and help you get the  
maximum life out of your saw blades.  
Tips for horizontal cutting:  
Use the work stop to quickly and accurately  
cut multiple pieces of stock to the same  
length (see Figure 30).  
Clamp the material firmly in the vise jaws to  
ensure a straight cut through the material.  
Figure 30. Work stop.  
Let the blade reach full speed before engag-  
ing the workpiece. Never start a cut with the  
blade in contact with the workpiece (see  
Figure 31).  
Chips should be curled and silvery. If the  
chips are thin and powder like, increase your  
feed rate.  
If the chips are burned, reduce the blade  
speed.  
Wait until the blade has completely stopped  
before removing the workpiece from the vise,  
and avoid touching the cut end—it could be  
very hot!  
Figure 31. Proper starting position.  
Tips for vertical cutting:  
Make sure that the vertical table assembly is  
securely fastened to the bandsaw frame so it  
will adequately support the workpiece.  
Always keep your fingers away from the  
blade and always hold the workpiece secure-  
ly in your hand (Figure 32).  
Adjust the blade guides as close as possible  
to the workpiece to minimize side-to-side  
blade movement.  
Figure 32. Using the vertical set-up.  
NOTICE  
Loosen blade tension at the end of each day  
to prolong blade life.

Blade Change  
Blades should be changed when they become  
dull, damaged, or when you are using materials  
that require a blade with a certain type or tooth  
count.  
To change the blade on the bandsaw:  
1. UNPLUG THE BANDSAW!  
Figure 43. Blade cutting direction.  
2. Raise the head of the bandsaw to the vertical  
position and remove the wheel access  
cover.  
6. When the blade is around both wheels, adjust  
the position so the back of the blade is against  
the shoulder of the wheels (see Figure 44).  
3. Loosen the tension knob and slip the blade  
7. Tighten the tension knob in so the blade will  
off of the wheels.  
not slip on the wheels on start up.  
8. Connect the bandsaw to the power source.  
9. Briefly turn the bandsaw ON then OFF to  
position the blade and resume the previous  
tracking.  
—If the tracking needs to be adjusted, see  
Tracking in the next section.  
—If the tracking is fine, proceed to Blade  
Tension on Page 32.  
Figure 42. Installing blade.  
4. Install the new blade through both blade  
guide bearings as shown in Figure 42 and  
around the bottom wheel.  
5. Hold the blade around the bottom wheel with  
one hand and slip it around the top wheel with  
the other hand, keeping the blade between  
the blade guide bearings.  
Note: It is sometimes possible to flip the  
blade inside out, in which case the blade will  
be installed in the wrong direction. Check to  
make sure the blade teeth are facing toward  
the workpiece, as shown in Figure 43, after  
mounting to the bandsaw. Some blades will  
have a directional arrow as a guide.

Blade Tension  
Squaring the Blade  
Proper blade tension is essential to long blade life,  
straight cuts, and efficient cutting times.  
It is always a good idea during the life of your saw  
to check and adjust this setting. This adjustment  
will improve your cutting results and extend the  
life of your blade.  
Two major signs that you do not have the correct  
blade tension are: 1) the blade stalls in the cut  
and is slipping on the wheels, and 2) the blade  
frequently breaks from being too loose.  
To square the blade to the bed of the table:  
1. UNPLUG THE BANDSAW!  
To tension the blade on the bandsaw:  
1. Make sure the blade is tracking properly.  
2. UNPLUG THE BANDSAW!  
2. Lower the head of the bandsaw all the way  
until it contacts the horizontal stop.  
3. Place a square on the table bed and against  
the edge of the blade (Figure 47), and check  
different points along the length of the table  
between the blade guides.  
3. Loosen and slide the blade guides as far  
apart as they will go then tighten them down  
again.  
4. Loosen the hex bolt shown in Figure 47,  
and rotate the seat until the blade is vertical  
to the bed, then tighten the hex bolt.  
4. Turn the tension knob in Figure 46 clockwise  
to tighten the blade as tight as you can get.  
5. Using moderate finger pressure, push against  
the side of the blade. The blade should not  
move more than 0.004".  
Hex Bolt  
6. Another option is to use a blade tensioning  
gauge, like the one found in ACCESSORIES  
on Page 25. If you use this option please  
follow the instructions included with your  
gauge.

1. UNPLUG THE BANDSAW!  
Blade Guide  
Bearings  
2. Position the bandsaw in the vertical position.  
The blade guide bearings must be properly  
adjusted. One bearing on each assembly has  
an eccentric bushing that allows the distance  
between bearings to be adjusted. The bearings  
are secured in place by a hex nut and lock wash-  
er shown in Figure 48.  
3. Loosen the hex nut that secures the bearing  
to the eccentric bushing.  
4. Using a 13mm open-end wrench, adjust the  
eccentric bushing position to achieve the  
desired clearance. The bearing and blade  
should have a clearance of 0.001".  
5. Tighten the nut to lock the bearing in posi-  
tion.  
Backing Bearing  
6. Adjust the other eccentric blade guide bear-  
ing in the same manner. The backing bear-  
ing should have a gap between 0.002-0.003"  
from the back of the blade.
