Grizzly G0526 Planer User Manual


 
G0526 6" Jointer -15-
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 as they may damage painted
surfaces should they come in contact.
To access the sliding surfaces, remove the fence
lock nut (Figure 11) and handle, and remove the
fence from the jointer unit.
Once the sliding surfaces are clean, reassemble
the fence to the jointer with the lock handle on the
top and the fence lock nut below the fence sup-
port assembly.
Gasoline and petroleum
products have low flash
points and could explode
if used to clean machin-
ery. DO NOT use gaso-
line or petroleum prod-
ucts to clean the machin-
ery.
Unsupervised children
and visitors inside your
shop could receive seri-
ous personal injury.
Ensure child and visitor
safety by keeping all
entrances to the shop
locked at all times. DO
NOT allow unsupervised
children or visitors in the
shop at any time.
Floor Load

both the machine and operator.
Working Clearances
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
the machine. See Figure 12 for the overall
dimensions of the Model G0526.
