The specifications, drawings and photographs in this manual represent the Model G1126, as sup-
plied when the manual was prepared. However, owing to Grizzly’s policy of continuous improve-
ment, changes to the Model G1126 may be made at any time with no obligation on the part of
Grizzly.
The information in this manual has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable and as up-to-
date as possible. While this manual is intended to be a good source for basic information, it is by no
means the last word on milling or metalworking. Instead, we have focused primarily on the proper
assembly and adjustment of the machine. We have also included some important safety measures
which we believe to be essential to this machine’s operation. Though most safety measures are gen-
erally universal, Grizzly cautions that each workshop is different and safety rules should be consid-
ered as they apply to your individual situation.
The Model G1126 is designed for highly-skilled individuals who have an understanding of metals and
machining. A strong knowledge of metalworking is essential for the proper use of the mill / drill. We
realize there are numerous kinds of cutters and specialized techniques used in metalworking. To list
all of the techniques necessary to operate a mill / drill correctly for specific applications would require
many volumes.
If you are not familiar with milling machines and their safe operation, we strongly suggest you obtain
as many books on the subject as you can. A visit to the local library, or time spent browsing through
back issues of machinist’s magazines will prove beneficial in gaining knowledge of mill / drill opera-
tions.
III. SAFETY RULES FOR ALL TOOLS
WARNING! As with all power tools, there is a certain amount of danger associated with the Model
G1126 Gear-Head Mill / Drill. Using the tool with respect and caution will considerably lessen the
possibility of mechanical damage or operator injury. However, if normal safety precautions are over-
looked or ignored, injury to the operator or others in the area is possible.
There are certain applications for which this tool was designed. We strongly emphasize that this tool
should never be modified and/or used for any application other than that for which it was designed.
If you are confused about any aspect of this machine, do not use it until you have resolved any
questions you might have. The following are important safety rules for all tools:
1. KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read the owner’s manual carefully. Learn the tool’s applications
and limitations, as well as its particular hazards.
2. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
3. GROUND ALL TOOLS. If the tool is equipped with a three-prong plug, it should be plugged into
a three-hole grounded outlet. If an adapter is used to accommodate a two-prong receptacle, the
adapter plug must be attached to a known ground. Never remove the grounding prong.
4. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Make it a habit to ensure keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from the machine before turning it on.
