Grizzly G0504 Saw User Manual


 
-26- G0504 16" Horizontal Resaw Bandsaw
The blade memory button lowers the blade a pre-
determined distance each time it is pressed. This
allows you to make a series of cuts from the top
side of the workpiece, all of the same thickness.
Be sure to add the blade kerf to the desired
thickness of the cut-off pieces when setting the
memory function. For example, if you want your
cut-off pieces to be 1" thick and the kerf of the
blade is 0.06", the memory function needs to be
set to 1.06".
The blade memory function is also used when
you want to make resaw cuts thinner than
1
4".
Because the blade cannot be adjusted closer than
1
4" to the table, resaw cuts thinner than
1
4" need
to be cut from the top side of the workpiece.
To set the memory function:
1. Turn the control panel POWER ON switch
clockwise to supply power to the control
panel.
2. Press the FUNC key.
3. Enter the distance, to the nearest hun-
dredth's place, that you want the blade to
lower. For example, if you want the blade to
lower 2.06", press
2, 0, 6 on the key pad. If
you want the blade to lower 0.56", press
5,
6.
4. Press and hold the SET key for approxi-
mately 5 seconds or until the display stops
flashing.
5. Press the MEMORY button and the blade
will automatically lower the distance set into
the memory function.
Note—For best results, make a few cuts while using
the MEMORY button, measure the workpiece,
and adjust the memory setting according to the
measurements of the cut-off workpiece.
Setting Memory
Button
The memory preset keys (A, B, C, D) allow four
dimension sizes to be saved and recalled.
For example, if you have 500 pieces to resaw and
the starting size is 2" thick on all of them, then
you can save 2" in one of the memory keys. After
cutting down each piece, press that memory pre
-
set key to return to the starting height of 2" for the
next whole piece.
To store a height in the
A memory preset
key:
1. Press the A key. The current preset height
flashes on the display.
2. Enter the height you wish to store. For exam-
ple if you want to store 2" as the height",
press 2, 0, 0 on the key pad.
3. Press and hold the A key for 3 seconds. The
display zeros out and stops flashing.
To use the stored memory preset in the
A
key:
1. Press the A key. The current preset height
flashes on the display.
2. Press the START key on the key pad. The
blade moves to the stored height dimen
-
sion.
Note—To stop a stored memory preset from
moving to its stored height, press the
STOP
key on the key pad AFTER you have pressed
the memory preset key (
A in this example).
