Dear Valued Customer,

Due to improvements we've made to the internal structure of the Model G0501, the parts breakdown and

some features shown your owner's manual are no longer current. However, critical safety, setup, and opera-

tion information in your owner's manual is still valid and MUST be understood and followed before and dur-

ing the operation of this machine.

If you are unsure about any operation or feature of the machine, DO NOT continue operation until you have

resolved your uncertainty. Contact our Technical Support at (570) 546-9663 or email techsupport@grizzly.

com for help.

We are busy revising the owner's manual. Upon completion, we will send you a copy of the new manual.

If you have any further questions about the changes to the machine or the manual, contact our Technical

Support team.

We sincerely hope you enjoy your new Sliding Table Saw!

Best Regards,

The Grizzly Technical Documentation Department

SLIDING TABLE SAW

MANUAL UPDATE

WARNING: NO PORTION OF THIS MANUAL MAY BE REPRODUCED IN ANY SHAPE

OR FORM WITHOUT THE WRITTEN APPROVAL OF GRIZZLY INDUSTRIAL, INC.

#EW7533 PRINTED IN TAIWAN

The Sliding Table Saw has changed slightly from when the manual was originally written. We have improved

the crosscut fence, extension tables, blade guard assembly, and the blade guard dust port size has been

increased to 3". This manual update includes assembly instructions, parts lists, and parts diagrams that

have changed because of those improvements. We have also included a simplified method for adjusting

the sliding table to be parallel with the saw blade.

Use this update WITH the original manual, not as a replacement for it. Before operating your new sliding

table saw, you MUST read and understand the entire G0501 manual.

If you need additional help with any of these procedures, contact our Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 or by

email at [email protected].

6. Remove the cap screws under the blade

guard and a cap screw at the front.

7. Position the clear blade shield guide holes

under the blade guard arm (Figure 3)

and secure the shield with the cap screws

removed in Step 6.

Note: Overtightening cap screws may crack

the blade shield.

Installing Blade

Guard Assembly

The blade guard assembly parts have changed,

but the location is still the same. Refer to the

photographs in the manual for the installation

location.

To install the blade guard:

1. Remove the four bolts and lock washers from

the side of the motor cabinet.

2. Position the lower support arm (Figure 1)

over the holes in the motor cabinet and

secure the arm with the bolts and lock wash-

ers removed in Step 1.

Figure 2. Holes for securing the swing arm.

Figure 1. Support arms.

5. Remove the cap screws in the end of the

upper support arm (Figure 1), thread them

through the holes in the swing arm (Figure

2), and secure the swing arm to the upper

support.

Note: Get assistance holding the swing arm

while securing it to the support.

3. Unthread the two bolts and lock washers

from the upper support arm.

4. Position the upper support arm over the holes

in the lower support arm and secure the arm

with the bolts and lock washers removed in

Step 3.

Cap Screws

The blade guard MUST be installed on this

table saw before operating it. Table saws are

dangerous machines that can quickly cause

serious injury if the blade guard is not used.

Installing Extension

Tables

To install the extension tables:

1. Thread the M6-1 x 70 hex bolts through the

center of the hollow hex bolts and into the

holes in the bottom of the extension table as

shown in Figure 4.

Figure 5. Attaching the braces.

5. Get an assistant to position the small exten-

sion table over the holes on the cast iron

table, then secure it with three M8-1.25 x 20

hex bolts, lock washers, and flat washers.

Figure 4. Installing the hollow hex bolts.

2. Thread an M16-2 hex nut and a flat washer

onto each hollow hex bolt.

3. Place the braces over the hollow hex nuts,

followed by another flat washer and hex nut

(see Figure 5).

Note: Do not fully tighten the braces. The

tables will need to be leveled when installed.

4. With the help of two assistants, install the

large extension table with four M8-1.25 x 20

hex bolts, lock washers, and flat washers as

shown in Figure 6.

Note: The table saw may have been shipped

with the bolts and washers needed for table

installation already threaded into the holes in

the cabinet.

Figure 6. Large extension table installed.

-4- G0501 Manual Update

7. Adjust the hex bolts under the small exten-

sion table to align the surface with the main

table surface.

8. Use the hex nuts below the braces to level

the surface of the large extension table.

9. Tighten the hex nuts to secure the adjust-

ments made in Steps 7 & 8.

10. Tighten all extension table mounting bolts.

straightedge.

6. Check the table surfaces with a straightedge

as shown in Figure 7.

the blade.

T-Slot

Table

Blade

Besides the tools included with the saw, this pro-

cedure requires you to have an adjustable square

and feeler gauges or a dial indicator, a felt tip pen,

and the help of another person.

To adjust the sliding table parallel with the

main blade:

1. Move the blade tilt to 0˚ (blade 90˚ to table),

and raise the main blade all the way up.

2. Loosen the cap screws securing the sliding

table to the base, but leave the screw secur-

ing the center of the sliding table finger-tight.

3. DISCONNECT THE TABLE SAW FROM

THE POWER SOURCE!

4. Make a mark near the edge of the blade at

position A (Figure 8) using a felt tip pen.

This mark will allow you to take your mea-

surements from the exact same place on the

blade.

5. Using an adjustable square or a dial indica-

tor, measure the distance (A) between the

T-slot and the front of the blade as shown in

Figure 8.

Sliding Table

Parallelism

-5- G0501 Manual Update

6. Rotate the blade 180˚ and slide the table with

the measuring device to position B.

7. Measure the difference between the two posi-

tions (use a feeler gauge if using the adjust-

able square). Note the difference between

the two measurements on a piece of paper.

— If the difference was less than 0.004" then

the blade parallelism is correct.

— If the difference was greater than 0.004",

then the sliding table needs to be adjusted.

Continue with the next step.

8. Using the adjustable square or dial indicator,

watch the gap measurement and have your

assistant slowly make the adjustments at the

parallel adjustment bolts (Figure 9) until the

gap size is equal on both sides.

Figure 9. Sliding table parallel adjustment bolt

(other side not shown).

9. Repeat Step 7 until the gap between your

the blade and the edge of the sliding table is

less than 0.004" at both ends.

10. Tighten the jam nuts on the parallel adjust-

ment bolts to secure them in place

11. Tighten the three large cap screws that

secure the sliding table to the base.

Parallel

Adjustment Bolt

Crosscut Fence

The new style crosscut fence has a wooden block

attached to the blade end of the fence. This block

is to prevent damage to the fence by the saw

blade. If this part is damaged while sawing, it can

be ordered using Grizzly part number P0501944

or it can be made using scrap lumber.
