G4030 612" x 10" Metal-Cutting Bandsaw -9-
Safety Instructions for Metal-Cutting
Bandsaws
8. MATERIAL. This machine is designed to
cut metal only. Not all metals react the
same when cutting. Know the material you
are working with before cutting.
9. CUTTING FLUID SAFETY. For saws
designed to use cutting fluid, always follow
manufacturer’s cutting-fluid safety instruc-
tions on use, storage, maintenance, and
disposal.
10. LEAVING WORK AREA. Never leave a
machine running and unattended. Allow
the bandsaw to come to a complete stop
before you leave it unattended.
11. MAINTENANCE/SERVICES. All inspec-
tions, adjustments, and maintenance are
to be done with the machine OFF and
disconnected from the power source. Wait
for all moving parts to come to a complete
stop.
12. HABITS – GOOD AND BAD – ARE
HARD TO BREAK. Develop good habits
in your shop and safety will become sec-
ond-nature to you.
13. EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at
any time you are experiencing difficulties
performing the intended operation, stop
using the machine! Contact our Technical
Support Department at (570) 546-9663.
1. BLADE CONDITION. Do not operate with
dull, cracked or badly worn blade. Dull
blades require more effort to use and are
difficult to control. Inspect blades for cracks
and missing teeth before each use.
2. HAND PLACEMENT. Never position fin-
gers or thumbs in line with the cut. Serious
personal injury could occur.
3. GUARDS. Do not operate this bandsaw
without blade guard in place.
4. BLADE REPLACEMENT. When replacing
blades, make sure teeth face toward the
workpiece. Make sure the blade is properly
tensioned after installing.
5. WORKPIECE HANDLING. Always support
the workpiece with table, vise, or some
type of support fixture. Flag long pieces to
avoid a tripping hazard.
6. BLADE SPEED. Blade should be running
at full speed and the feed rate set before
beginning a cut.
7. FEED RATE. Always determine feed rate
before the cut is started. Do not increase
feed rate while cutting, especially when
sawing small diameter tubes and rods.
No list of safety guidelines can be complete.
Every shop environment is different. Always
consider safety first, as it applies to your
individual working conditions. Use this and
other machinery with caution and respect.
Failure to do so could result in serious per-
sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor
work results.
Like all machines there is danger associ-
ated with the Model G4030. Accidents are
frequently caused by lack of familiarity or
failure to pay attention. Use this machine
with respect and caution to lessen the pos-
sibility of operator injury. If normal safety
precautions are overlooked or ignored, seri-
ous personal injury may occur.

Floor Load
The weight and footprint size for your machine
is located in the machine data sheet.
Most floors
are suitable for your machine. Some residential
floors may require additional reinforcement to
support both the machine and operator.
Working Clearances
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of
material to be processed through each machine,
and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or
other machinery when establishing a location for
your new machine. See Figure 5 for the minimum
working clearances.
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!
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.
Site ConsiderationsClean 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.
