Additional Safety for Planers 1. INSTRUCTION MANUAL. This machine presents significant safety hazards to untrained users. Read/understand this entire manual before starting the planer. 2. REACHING INSIDE PLANER. Never reach inside planer or remove cover when the planer is connected to power. 3. INFEED CLEARANCE SAFETY. The infeed roller is designed to pull material into the cutterhead. Always keep hands, clothing, and long hair away from the infeed roller during operation to prevent being pulled in.
PAGE 11
SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS 110V Operation Power Connection Device The Model G0663 comes with a 5-15 plug, similar to Figure 2, to connect the machine to power. Serious personal injury could occur if you connect the machine to power before completing the setup process. DO NOT connect the machine to the power until instructed later in this manual. Electrocution or fire could result if machine is not grounded and installed in compliance with electrical codes.

SECTION 3: SETUP Setup Safety This machine presents serious injury hazards to untrained users. Read through this entire manual to become familiar with the controls and operations before starting the machine! Inventory The following is a description of the main components shipped with your machine. Lay the components out to inventory them. Items: (Figure 3) Qty A.

Clean Up The unpainted surfaces (including the knife and cutterhead) are coated with a waxy oil to prevent corrosion during shipment. Remove this protective coating with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. For thorough cleaning, some parts must be removed. For optimum performance from your machine, clean all moving parts or sliding contact surfaces. Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as acetone or brake parts cleaner that may damage painted surfaces.

Assembly To attach the elevation handle assembly: 1. 2. 3. Align the flat portion inside the handle bore with the flat portion on the shaft. Insert the handle assembly on the elevation shaft. To test run the machine: 1. Connect the machine to the power source. 2. Make sure you have read the safety instructions at the beginning of the manual and that the machine is setup properly. 3. Make sure all tools and objects used during setup are cleared away from the machine. 4.
PAGE 15
Mounting Dust Collection Once you have confirmed that your machine is running properly, mount it to a workbench through the holes in the base. Use of a portable dust collector will greatly reduce the amount of wood chips and saw dust in the work area. In addition, dust collectors help extract wood chips and dust from the cutterhead area. This lessens the potential for damaging the workpiece or the planer when wood chips become caught between the knife and the workpiece during the planing process.
PAGE 16
SECTION 4: OPERATIONS Operation Safety Damage to your eyes, lungs, and ears could result from using this machine without proper protective gear. Always wear safety glasses, a respirator, and hearing protection when operating this machine. ON/OFF Switch The ON/OFF switch is located on the front of the planer. The switch has a key that, when removed, allows it to be locked in the OFF position. To use the locking feature, push the switch to the OFF position and pull the switch key out.

Functional Overview The Model G0663 Planer allows the user to plane material from the surface of boards in precise increments which are determined by the depth of cut. The depth of cut is adjusted with the cutterhead elevation handle. One turn of the handle is equal to 1⁄16". Once the depth of cut is adjusted, the board is fed into the infeed roller which pulls the board into the cutterhead, where material is removed. The outfeed roller then pulls the board away from the cutterhead.
PAGE 18
Note: Any time you switch directions with the cutterhead elevation handle, there will be a small amount of backlash—so the first crank of the handle after switching directions will be slightly less than 1⁄16". However, as long as you move the handle in the same direction during operation, backlash will not be a factor. Planing Tips • Inspect your lumber for twisting or cupping, and surface one face on a jointer if necessary.

Wood Characteristics Below is a list of wood characteristics you may encounter when planing. The following descriptions of defects will give you some possible answers to problems you may encounter while planing different materials. Possible solutions follow the descriptions. Pitch & Glue Build-up Problem: Glue and resin buildup on the rollers and cutterhead will cause overheating by decreasing cutting sharpness while increasing drag in the feed mechanism.
PAGE 20
Wood Types Similarly, common softwood shear strengths are displayed in Figure 13. The species of wood, as well as its condition, has a dramatic effect on the depth of cut the planer can effectively take with each pass. The harder the wood (as illustrated by its shear strength), the shallower the depth of cut should be.

SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE Extension Wings Always disconnect power to the machine before performing maintenance. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. Your planer is equipped with front and rear extension wings. Each wing folds up for machine mobility and folds down for machine operation. To check the alignment, lay a straightedge across the bed and both wings (see Figure 18).
PAGE 23
Knife Replacement 3. Wearing gloves, carefully turn the cutterhead towards you until the safety latch engages and the cutterhead no longer turns (Figure 20). Safety Latch The cutterhead knives on the Model G0663 are extremely sharp. Brushing your finger along the edge can result in a severe cut. Take extreme caution when doing any of the adjustments involving the cutterhead knives. Wear thick gloves anytime it is necessary to manually rotate the cutterhead assembly.
PAGE 24
Before re-installing the knives, the cutterhead, gib and knife must be inspected. Neglecting to inspect these components may result in damage to the planer. To inspect the cutterhead, gib, and knives: 1. DISCONNECT PLANER FROM POWER! 2. Carefully clean the cutterhead with a rag and inspect the following: • Make sure the threaded screw holes do not contain wood material or sawdust. • Make sure that the hex socket and the threads of all hex screws are in good condition. Replace if questionable.
PAGE 25
Motor Belt Keep the motor as clean as possible. Prevent any water, oil, or wood chips from penetrating inside the motor. Be sure to clean the machine after every use. The cutterhead is driven by a belt that is located on the right-hand side of the motor and cutterhead assembly (when facing the front of the machine). The belt is very durable, but with extended use may begin to slip, indicating the need for replacement.
PAGE 26
Feed Rollers The feed rollers rotate in bushing blocks that are spring loaded. The feed rollers ride up on the board so that the roller pressure is maintained. If chips or sawdust build up between the bracket and bushing block, the amount of roller vertical travel will be reduced, potentially causing improper feeding of lumber through the machine (Figure 26). 4. Remove any trapped material from between the roller assembly and bracket. 5. Raise the cutterhead assembly and remove the block of wood. 6.
