13. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. 15. DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing and changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters, and the like. 16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure switch is in off position before plugging in. 17. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS 110V Operation 220V Operation The motor supplied with the G1037 is a dual voltage motor, prewired for 110V. Under normal use, the motor draws approximately 17 amps @ 110V, 8.5 @ 220V. We recommend using a 20 amp circuit breaker or a 30 amp slow blow fuse for 110V or 220V operation. This should be satisfactory for normal use, while preventing motor damage from high heat caused by overload.
Grounding CAUTION: THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK. In the event of an electrical short, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Figure 2.
SECTION 3: GENERAL INFORMATION Grizzly Industrial, Inc. is proud to offer the Model G1037 Planer/Moulder. This Planer/Moulder is a part of Grizzly’s growing family of fine woodworking and metalworking machinery. When used according to the guidelines stated in this manual, you can expect years of trouble-free, enjoyable operation. The Model G1037 is intended for home and medium-duty professional use. This Planer/Moulder features a 1,725 R.P.M., 11⁄2 H.P.
Unpacking Piece Inventory The Model G1037 Planer/Moulder is shipped from the manufacturer in a carefully packed carton. If you discover the machine is damaged after you’ve signed for delivery, please call Customer Service immediately for advice. After all the parts have been removed from the carton, you should have: • Knife Setting Gauge • Steel Guide • Brass Punch • Cap Screw M8-1.25 x 50 (4) • Cap Screw M6-1.0 x 19 • Cap Screw M5-.
Clean up The column and other unpainted parts of the Model G1037 are coated with a waxy oil that protects them from corrosion during shipment. Remove the protective coating with mineral spirits and paper towels. Do not use gasoline or other petroleum based solvents because of their extremely low flash points. Do not use chlorinebased solvents – if you happen to splash some onto a painted surface, you’ll ruin the finish. Site Considerations 1.
SECTION 4: ASSEMBLY Stand Assembly 1. Locate the four legs and the long upper and lower stand braces. 2. The square mounting holes on either side of the legs are not the same. On one side the square holes are parallel to the leg, at an angle on the other. Attach the long upper and lower braces to the side with the parallel holes. Use the 5/16" - 18 x 5/8" Carriage bolts, 5 /16" - 18 Hex nuts, and 5/16" Flat washers provided. Hand tighten for now. Figure 4.
Mounting To Stand Set the Planer/Moulder onto the assembled stand and bolt together with the four M8-1.25 x 50mm Cap Screws. Of course, you will need assistance to do this step. Do not attempt to do this alone. Figure 6. Mounting to stand. Figure 5. Assembled stand.
SECTION 5: ADJUSTMENTS Knife Removal Unplug your Planer/Moulder from its power source. WARNING: Always unplug your planer from its power source before changing knives and moulding cutters. Your planer knives are held in position by wedgetype gibs. The setscrews press against the bottom of the cutterhead slot, forcing the gib and planer knife into a wedge-type seal. To break this seal and remove the knife: Figure 7. 1.
Knife Setting Unplug your Planer/Moulder from its power source. WARNING: Always unplug your planer from its power source before changing knives and moulding cutters. When installing the planer knives, orient the knife in the cutterhead as shown in Figure 8. Your Planer/Moulder comes with a knife setting gauge to aid in uniform knife setting. Place the gauge on the cutterhead next to the jack screws with the feet of the knife setting gauge firmly resting against the cutterhead.
Bedboard Due to the high relief nature of the moulding cutters, it is essential that a bedboard be used to ensure that the knives do not come into contact with the planer bed. The bedboard also needs side rails or fences to guide the stock through the machine. Always use a bedboard so the knife does not come into contact with the cast iron bed of your Planer/Moulder. Before installing the moulding knives, construct and install a bedboard and fence system as described below. Figure 10.
Moulding Knives Moulding cutter knives fit directly into the center of each cutterhead slot and can be used with the planer blades so that you can actually plane and mould in one pass. The Planer/Moulder accepts two thicknesses of cutters: 1⁄8'' and 1⁄4''. For the 1⁄8'' cutter thickness, only loosen the gib, using a piece of aluminum or brass to tap down the wedge piece. For 1⁄4'' thickness, remove the gib and the wedge piece and replace with the special gibs for the 1⁄4'' thickness.
Chip Chute A chip chute is included for convenient connection to a dust collector. The dust collector chip chute mounts to the knife cover. It has a fitting for attaching a 4" dust collection hose. To mount the dust collector chip chute: 1. Unplug the Planer/Moulder and turn if OFF. Figure 15. 2. Using the hardware provided, mount the dust collector chip chute. 3. Be sure to turn the dust collector on before operating the Planer/Moulder. Figure 16. Figure 17.
Chip Deflector Feed Speed Before planing, adjust the chip guide plate so that there is a clearance of at least 1⁄8'' between the guide plate and the planer knife tips. Before moulding, it is very important to move the chip guide plate away from the moulding knives. Failure to do so will result in damage to the Planer/Moulder.
Feed Roller Adjustment Stock Pre-sizing Make sure the powerfeed rollers are lowered from their stock setting. Do not lower the rollers past the point at which the center of the roller axle extends below the bottom edge of the headstock. It is also recommended to tighten the spring tension adjusting nuts several rotations to firm-up the down force on the board. This will encourage smoother feeding and reduce the risk of kick back.
Adjusting Scale Belt Tension For safe operation of your Planer/Moulder, it is very important that the depth of cut scale is reading accurately. To adjust the depth of cut scale, follow the steps outlined below: Proper belt tension is essential. Poor feeding of the stock as well as premature belt wear can occur if not properly tensioned. To adjust the tension: WARNING: Always unplug the Planer/Moulder from its power source.
SECTION 6: OPERATIONS Test Run Thickness Planing Before you test your Planer/Moulder give it a quick inspection. Thickness planing is the sizing of material to a desired thickness, while creating a smooth surface parallel to the opposite side of the board. 1. Are all fasteners tight? 2. Are the mounting bolts secured to the machine table top? 3. Is the Planer/Moulder oriented properly for the type of job you will do? 4.
NOTE: It is recommended that you plane on both sides of the board to reach the desired thickness. That way, the moisture content will be uniform, and the drying process will not warp the board. For example, if you need to remove 1⁄8'' to reach your desired thickness, it is recommended that you remove 1⁄16'' from each side. 3. Stand to one side of the machine and start the board under the infeed roller so that it travels in a straight line.
SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE General Lubrication Build-up of sawdust and other debris can cause your machine to plane and mould inaccurately. Periodic cleaning and waxing is not only recommended, but mandatory for precision planing and moulding. 1. The recommended lubrication for roller chains used in medium to slow speed operation is to simply wipe the chain clean. When there is an appreciable build-up of dust, dirt or wood shavings, use an oil cloth but never pour the oil directly on the chain.
