-36- G1023S Series Heavy-Duty 10'' Table Saw
V-Belt
The sealed ball bearings in the motor and
throughout the Model G1023S Series require no
maintenance during their lifetime. When they do
wear out, replacements can be obtained through
the Grizzly Parts Department.
Lubricate the areas indicated below every 12
months:
BLADE ANGLING TRUNNION—The front and
back trunnions each have a semi-circle groove
that needs to be lubricated with an automotive
wheel bearing grease.
BLADE HEIGHT TRUNNION—The blade height
trunnion pivots on a steel rod. This should be
lubricated with 6 or 7 drops of light machine oil.
WORM GEARS
—
These should be lubricated
with an automotive wheel bearing grease.
Lubrication Table
The table is made from cast iron. If preventative
measures are not taken, the table surface will rust.
Regularly wipe sawdust from the table to prevent
rust causing moisture from becoming trapped
against the table. Regular applications of products
like SLIPIT
®
will prevent rust as the saw is used on
a daily basis. For long term storage, use products
such as Boeshield T-9
®
. Both of these products
are available in the Grizzly catalog.
To ensure optimum power transmission from the
motor to the blade, the V-belts must be in good
condition and operate under the proper tension.
When replacing V-belts, replace all three at the
same time—even if they do not all appear worn.
Belt tension should be checked at least every 3
months; more often if using the table saw inten-
sively.
The V-belts are accessed through the cavity on
the right side of the saw. They link the arbor and
motor pulleys.
To check V-belt tension:
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source!
2. With moderate pressure, push the center of
each V-belt.
3. Note the amount of deflection. Deflection
should be approximately
1
⁄2", similar to
Figure 36.
