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.
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.

Working Clearances
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of

and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or
other machinery when establishing a location for
the machine. See Figure 6 for the overall dimen-
sions of the Model G0550/G0551.

Smoking near solvents
could ignite an explosion
or fire and cause serious
injury. DO NOT smoke
while using solvents.
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.
