G4030 61⁄2" 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.
