Safety Instructions for Sliding Table Saws
1. SAFETY ACCESSORIES. Always use the
blade guard and riving knife on all ''through-
sawing'' operations. Through-sawing oper-
ations are those when the blade cuts com-
pletely through the workpiece.
7. RIP FENCE USAGE. When using the
crosscut fence, the workpiece should never
contact the rip fence while the saw blade is
cutting.
8. STALLED BLADE. Turn the saw OFF
2. KICKBACK. Kickback is defined as high
speed expulsion of stock from the table
saw toward the operator. Until you have a
clear understanding of kickback and how it
occurs, DO NOT operate this table saw!
before "freeing" a stalled saw blade.
9. AWKWARD OPERATIONS. Avoid awk-
ward operations and hand positions where
a sudden slip could cause your hand to
move into the spinning saw blade.
3. WORKPIECE CONTROL. Make sure the
workpiece is placed in a stable position on
the table and is either supported by the rip
fence or the crosscut table during cutting
operations.
10. BLADE HEIGHT. Always adjust the blade
to the proper height above the workpiece.
11. DAMAGED SAW BLADES. Never use
blades that have been dropped or dam-
aged. A damaged blade could lose teeth
while turning, causing injury or death.
4. PUSH STICK. Always use a push stick
when ripping narrow stock.
5. OPERATOR POSITION. Never stand or
have any part of your body directly in-line
with the cutting path of the saw blade.
12. RIVING KNIFE ALIGNMENT. Only oper-
ate the saw if the riving knife is aligned with
the main blade to prevent kickback.
6. REACHING OVER SAW BLADE. Never
reach behind or over the blade with either
hand while the saw is running. If kick-
back occurs while reaching over the blade,
hands or arms could be pulled into the
spinning saw blade.
13. EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any
time you are experiencing difficulties per-
forming the intended operation, stop using
the machine! Contact Tech Support at
(570) 546-9663.
Like all machines there is danger associat-
ed with the Model G0588/G0591. 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.
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.

Make multiple, shallow passes when per-
forming a non-through cut. Making a deep
non-through cut will greatly increase the
chance of kickback.
Statistics prove that most common acci-
dents among table saw users can be linked
to kickback. Kickback is typically defined
as the high-speed expulsion of stock from
the table saw toward its operator. In addi-
tion to the danger of the operator or oth-
ers in the area being struck by the flying
stock, the operator’s hands can be pulled
into the blade during the kickback.
Feed cuts through to completion. Anytime
you stop feeding a workpiece that is in the
middle of a cut, the chance of binding, result-
ing in kickback, is greatly increased.
Protecting Yourself
from Kickback
Preventing Kickback
Below are tips to reduce the likelihood of
kickback:
Even if you know how to prevent kickback,
it may still happen. Here are some tips to
reduce the likelihood of injury if kickback
DOES occur:
•
Never attempt freehand cuts. If the workpiece
is not fed perfectly parallel with the blade, a
kickback will likely occur. Always use the
rip fence or crosscut fence to support the
workpiece.
•
Never, for any reason, place your hand
behind the blade. Should kickback occur,
your hand will be pulled into the blade.
•
Make sure the riving knife is always aligned
with the blade. A misaligned riving knife can
cause the workpiece to bind or stop the flow
of the cut, resulting in an increased chance
of kickback. If you think that your riving knife
is not aligned with the blade, check it imme-
diately!
•
Stand to the side of the blade during every
cut. If a kickback does occur, the thrown
workpiece usually travels directly in front of
the blade.
•
•
Always wear safety glasses or a face shield.
In the event of a kickback, your eyes and
face are the most vulnerable part of your
body.
•
•
•
Ensure that your table slides parallel with the
blade; otherwise, the chances of kickback
are extreme. Take the time to check and
adjust the sliding table.
Use a pushstick to keep your hands farther
away from the moving blade. If a kickback
occurs, the push stick will most likely take
the damage that your hand would have
received.
Use the riving knife whenever performing a
through cut. The riving knife helps maintain
the kerf in the workpiece after it is cut, there-
fore, reducing the chance of kickback.
Keep the blade guard installed and in good
working order. Only remove it when perform-
ing non-through cuts and immediately re-
install the blade guard when finished with the
non-through cut.

Glossary of Terms
The following is a list of common definitions, terms and phrases used throughout this manual as they relate
to this table saw and woodworking in general. Become familiar with these terms for assembling, adjusting
or operating this machine. Your safety is VERY important to us at Grizzly!
Arbor: A metal shaft extending from the drive
mechanism that is the mounting location for
the saw blade.
Non-Through Cut: A sawing operation that
requires the removal of the blade guard and riv-
ing knife. Dado and rabbet cuts are considered
Non-Through Cuts because the blade does
not protrude above the top face of the wood
stock. Deep Non-Through Cuts must be made
with multiple, light passes to reduce chance
of kickback. Always remember to re-install the
blade guard and riving knife after performing a
non-through cut.
Bevel Edge Cut: Tilting the arbor and saw blade
to an angle between 0˚ and 45˚ to cut a bev-
eled edge onto a workpiece.
Blade Guard: Metal or plastic safety device that
mounts over the saw blade. Its function is to
prevent the operator from coming into contact
with the saw blade.
Perpendicular: Lines or planes that intersect
and form right angles (i.e. the blade is perpen-
dicular to the table surface).
Crosscut: Cutting operation in which the cross-
cut fence is used to cut across the shortest
width of the workpiece.
Push Stick: Safety device used to push the
workpiece through a cutting operation. Used
most often when rip cutting thin workpieces.
Dado Blade: Blade or set of blades that are used
to cut grooves and rabbets.
Rabbet: Cutting operation that creates an L-
shaped channel along the edge of the
workpiece.
Dado Cut: Cutting operation that uses a dado
blade to cut a flat bottomed groove into the
face of the workpiece.
Riving Knife (Splitter): Metal plate located
behind the blade. It maintains the kerf opening
in the wood when performing a cutting opera-
tion.
Featherboard: Safety device used to keep the
workpiece against the rip fence and against the
table surface.
Kerf: The resulting cut or gap in the workpiece
after the saw blade passes through during a
cutting operation.
Straightedge: A tool used to check the flatness,
parallelism, or consistency of a surface(s).
Through Cut: A sawing operation in which the
Kickback: An event in which the workpiece is
propelled back towards the operator at a high
rate of speed.
workpiece is completely sawn through.
Rip Cut: Cutting operation in which the rip fence
is used to cut across the widest width of the
workpiece.
Parallel: Being an equal distance apart at every
point along two given lines or planes (i.e. the
rip fence face is parallel to the face of the saw
blade).

Phase Converter
Rewiring to 440V
When using a phase converter, the power from
the manufactured power leg (sometimes called
the wild wire) can fluctuate. Connect the manufac-
tured power leg to the S terminal to prevent dam-
age to the electrical controls. The wire from the S
terminal can handle some fluctuation because it
goes directly to the motor. The power going to the
R and T terminals goes to the electrical controls
and must be consistent to prevent damage. See
the instruction manual included with the phase
converter for more information.
The Model G0588 can be rewired for 440V oper-
ation. This rewiring job consists of disconnecting
the saw from the power source, replacing the
magnetic switch, and rewiring the motor.
The necessary magnetic switch for this proce-
dure can be purchased by calling our Customer
Service number at (800) 523-4777.
This procedure takes moderate electrical skill
and the rewiring job must be inspected by a quali-
fied electrician before the saw is connected to the
power source.
To rewire the Model G0588 for 440V opera-
tion:
Grounding
1. Disconnect the saw from the power
source!
In the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock. The ground-
ing wire in the cord must be properly connected
to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the
outlet must be properly installed and grounded.
All electrical connections must be made in accor-
dance with local codes and ordinances.
2. Remove the control panel cover plate shown
in Figure 6.
Improper connections of the electrical-grounding
conductor increases the risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or one of our
service personnel if you do not understand
the grounding instructions, or if you doubt the
machine is properly grounded.
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!

SECTION 4: OPERATIONS
Operation Safety
Operation Tips
Your safety is important. The tips below are
intended to supplement SECTION 1: SAFETY.
But remember, no safety list can be comprehen-
sive of every situation. The operator is ultimately
responsible for their own safety, as well as the
safety of bystanders. Every cutting operation is
uniquely different and may require safety equip-
ment or safety procedures not mentioned in this
manual.
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.
Please follow these tips EVERY time you use
your saw:
•
Stand to the left of the blade line-of-cut when
performing a cutting operation.
•
Turn OFF the saw and allow the blade to
come to a complete stop before removing the
cut-off piece.
Loose hair and cloth-
ing could get caught in
machinery and cause seri-
ous personal injury. Keep
loose clothing and long
hair away from moving
machinery.
•
•
•
•
Make sure that the riving knife is always
aligned with the main blade before cutting!
Always position the blade guard to the cor-
rect height above the workpiece.
NOTICE
Carefully plan each cutting operation to avoid
injuries.
If you have never used this type of machine
or equipment before, WE STRONGLY REC-
OMMEND that you read books, trade maga-
zines, or get formal training before begin-
ning any projects. Regardless of the con-
tent in this section, Grizzly Industrial will
not be held liable for accidents caused by
lack of training.
When you release the sliding table lock,
make sure that the knob is positioned so that
it will not lock the table during a cut.

5. When replacing the scoring blade, measure
the main blade and stack the scoring blade
with shims to match the thickness of the
main blade.
Changing Blades
The Model G0588/G0591 will perform best when
high quality, sharp blades are used. Therefore,
whenever the blades start to get dull, we rec-
ommend that you have them resharpened or
replaced with a new blade.
6. Install the main blade with the teeth facing
the front of the saw, and install the scoring
blade with the teeth facing back.
7. Re-install the arbor flange and the arbor nut
and tighten them against the blade as shown
in Figure 49.
To change the blades:
1. Disconnect the saw from the power
source!
Note: Wear gloves to protect your hands
when installing or removing blades.
2. Move the blade tilt to 0˚ (blade 90˚ to table)
and raise the main blade as high as it will
go.
3. Slide the table all the way forward to access
the blade arbor, loosen the cap screw secur-
ing the lower blade guard, slide the cap
screw up, and pull open the lower blade
guard shown in Figure 48.
Figure 49. Replacing the main blade.

8. Position the riving knife about 3mm or ⁄8
"
away from the nearest carbide tooth on the
main blade.
Note: For a quick gauge, use the 3mm hex
wrench to find the correct spacing between
the blade and the riving knife.
Figure 48. Internal blade guard exposed.
9. Align the scoring blade set to the main
blade as described in the Aligning Blade
and Riving Knife Alignment instructions on
Page 27.
4. Place a hex wrench in the hole in the arbor
of the blade you wish to change to prevent
the arbor from rotating, then use the arbor
wrench to remove the arbor nut and flange.
10. Align the riving knife with the blades as
instructed on Page 27.
Note: The arbor nut on the main blade has
left hand threads and loosens by turning
clockwise. The arbor nut on the scoring blade
has right hand threads and loosens by turn-
ing counterclockwise.
11. Move the lower blade guard back into its
original position and lock it in place with the
cap screw.

2. Slide the protection block on the end of the
crosscut fence against the blade teeth to cali-
brate the scale, then tighten the lock knob.
Rip Cutting
The Model G0588/G0591 easily rips full size
panels (Figure 50). The sliding table removes the
burden of sliding a large and heavy panel over a
stationary table surface.
Note: The scale will not be accurate if the
protection block has been cut.
3. Set a flip stop to the desired width-of-cut.
This saw also can rip cut smaller boards using
the machine as a traditional table saw (Figure
51). Smaller, lighter boards are easier to slide
across the stationary cast iron table surface to
the right of the saw blade.
4. Position the blade guard to the correct height
for your workpiece.
5. Load the workpiece onto the table saw. The
set up should look similar to Figure 50.
6. When ripping irregular shaped stock, wedge
the leading edge under the edge shoe (Figure
52), slide the hold down into place as shown
in Figure 52, and clamp the stock firmly.
Note: DO NOT use the edge shoe for rip-
ping warped or twisted boards. The tension
that causes warps and twists can cause the
board to spring free from the edge shoe and
hold down during a cut.

5. Slide the leading end of the rip fence so it is
even with the center of the main saw blade as
shown in Figure 55.
Rip cutting using traditional table
saw techniques:
1. Remove the crosscut fence.
Note: This technique allows the finished cut-
off piece to “fall” away from the blade when
the cutting operation is complete; reducing
the possibility of kickback.
2. Use the table lock (Figure 53) to lock the
sliding table into a stationary position.

Fence to Blade
4. Measure the test piece diagonally from cor-
ner-to-corner as shown in Figure 85.
Squaring the crosscut fence to the blade ensures
that cuts made with the crosscut fence will be
square. This procedure can be done by using
a piece of scrap plywood as a test piece and
making five test cuts, then adjusting the fence as
necessary.
