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, such as acetone or brake
parts cleaner, as they may damage painted sur-
faces should they come in contact. Always follow
the manufacturer’s instructions when using any
type of cleaning product.

Clean Up

Gasoline and petroleum

products have low flash

points and could cause

an explosion or fire if

used to clean machinery.

DO NOT use gasoline or

petroleum products to

clean the machinery.

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.

Floor Load

Refer to the

Machine Data Sheet for weight and

footprint specifications for your machine. Some
residential floors may require additional reinforce-
ment to support both the machine and operator.
Some workbenches may require additional rein-
forcement to support both the machine and the
workpiece.

Working Clearances

Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of
material to be processed through each machine,
space for auxiliary stands, work tables or other
machinery, and the great range of movement
in the Model G7946/G7946 when establishing
a location for your machine. See

Figure 6 for

the minimum working clearances of the Model
G7945/G7946.

Unsupervised children and

visitors inside your shop

could cause serious per-

sonal injury to themselves.

Lock all entrances to the

shop when you are away and

DO NOT allow unsupervised

children or visitors in your

shop at any time!
