G1023 Heavy-Duty Table Saw

Figure 39.

The shielded ball bearings in the motor and
throughout most of the model G1023 require no
further lubrication during their lifetime. When they
do wear out, replacements can be obtained
through the Grizzly Parts Department.

Your saw requires lubrication in several other
locations, however. Lubricate the areas indicated
below every 12 months.

1.

Blade angling trunnions

. These should be

lubricated with 6 or 7 drops of light machine
oil.

2.

Blade height trunnion

. This should also be

lubricated with 6 or 7 drops of light machine
oil.

3.

The two (2) worm gears

should be lubricat-

ed with a automotive wheel bearing grease.
The blade angle worm gear is not shown in

Figure 39.

These points can be reached by removing the
table. Check all adjustments when finished lubri-
cating.
