This section is designed to help the operator with
adjustments that were made at the factory and
that might also need to be made during the life
of the machine.

This section is provided for your convenience—
it is not a substitute for the Grizzly Service
Department. If any adjustments arise that are not
described in this manual, then feel free to call the
Grizzly Technical Support at (570) 546-9663.

To adjust the lower blade guides:

1. Disconnect the resaw from the power

source!

2. Open the wheel cover for easy access to the

blade guide assemblies.

3. Make sure the blade is tensioned in the same

manner that will be used for operation.

4. Loosen the lateral adjustment bolts (shown

in

Figure 34).

Always

disconnect

power to the machine

before performing ser-

vice adjustments. Failure

to do this may result in

serious personal injury.

" behind the gullets of the

blade teeth, and tighten the lateral bolts.

6. Loosen the vertical adjustment bolts.

7. Adjust the lower blade guide so it barely

touches the bottom of the blade, then tighten
the vertical adjustment bolts.

8. Repeat Steps 4-5 on the other blade guide.

9. Adjust the upper guide blocks and the sup-

port bearings.

blocks and support bearing are given in Section

the lower blade guides, which is a non-routine
adjustment that would typically be done before
the upper blade guide and support bearing would
be adjusted.
