and safety glasses to protect eyes.
5. WORKPIECE HANDLING. Always sup-
port the workpiece with table, vise, or other
support fixture. Flag long pieces to avoid a
tripping hazard. Never hold the workpiece
with your hands during a cut.
6. LOSS OF STABILITY. Unsupported
workpieces may jeopardize machine sta-
bility and cause the machine to tip and fall,
which could cause serious injury.
7. POWER INTERRUPTION. Unplug machine
after power interruption. Machines without
magnetic switches can start up after power
is restored.
No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every shop environment is different. Like all
machines there is danger associated with the Model G0613/14. Accidents are frequently caused

Floor Load and Working Clearances
Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight
and footprint specifications of your machine.
Some floors may require additional reinforcement
to support both the machine and operator.
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of
material to be processed through each machine,
and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or
other machinery. See Figure 7 for the minimum
working clearances.
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 will damage painted sur-
faces should they come in contact. Always follow
the manufacturer’s instructions when using any
type of cleaning product.

Figure 7. Minimum working clearances.
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.

The Model G0613/14
is an extremely heavy
machine. Serious per-
sonal injury may occur if
safe moving methods are
not followed. To be safe,
you will need assistance
and power equipment
when moving the ship-
ping crate and remov-
ing the machine from the
crate.
Typical Machine Mounting Options
Although not required, we recommend that you
mount your new machine to the floor. Using
machine mounts, shown in Figure 9, gives the
advantage of fast leveling and vibration reduc-
tion. Lag shield anchors with lag bolts and anchor
studs are two popular methods for anchoring
an object to a concrete floor. Because this is an
optional step and floor materials may vary, floor
mounting hardware is not included. Generally,
you can either bolt your machine to the floor or
mount it on machine mounts. It may be neces-
sary to level your machine after mounting.
Mounting to Shop
Floor
NOTICE
Anchor studs are stronger and more per-
manent alternatives to lag shield anchors;
however, they will stick out of the floor,
which may cause a tripping hazard if you
decide to move your machine.
Cabinet Assembly
To assemble the cabinet:
1. Assemble the four cabinet sides together with
the eight M8-1.25 x 16 hex bolts and nuts.
2. Using a hoist and straps that can hold at least
600 lbs. (see Figure 8), lower the bandsaw
and base onto the top of the cabinet so the
swivel lock lever protrudes through the side
of the cabinet and the four cabinet mounting
holes line up.
3. Secure the bandsaw base to the cabinet with
the four M10-1.5 x 35 hex bolts and the flat
washers.

Cutting Fluid System
FIRE HAZARD! DO NOT
cut magnesium when
using oil-water solutions
as a cutting fluid! Always
use a cutting fluid intend-
ed for magnesium. The
water in the solution will
cause a magnesium-chip
fire.
This bandsaw has a built-in cutting fluid system
that extends the life of your bandsaw blades
by lowering the temperature of the blade and
workpiece.
See Cutting Fluid on Page 26 for additional
information.
To use the cutting fluid system:
1. Remove the Phillip head screw and the res-
ervoir screen.
2. Thoroughly clean and remove any foreign
material that may have fallen inside the res-
ervoir during shipping and machine use.
3. Fill the reservoir (Figure 10) with your chosen
cutting fluid solution and replace the screen.
NOTICE
Keep the screen clear so cutting fluid can
recycle to the pump reservoir. NEVER oper-
ate the pump with the reservoir below the
low mark or you will over-heat the pump
and void your warranty!
5. Monitor the cutting fluid level frequently to
keep the system working properly. DO NOT
let the cutting fluid level fall out of view on the
sight glass.

4. Turn the cutting fluid pump switch ON, and
adjust the valves on the cutting fluid hoses
to control the flow of cutting fluid (see
Figure11).
Note: Too much flow at the fluid nozzle will
make a mess and can make the work area
unsafe; and not enough fluid at the cut will
heat the blade, causing the blade teeth to
load up and break.
