Preventing Kickback Statistics show that most common accidents among table saw users can be linked to kickback. Kickback is typically defined as the high-speed expulsion of stock from the table saw toward its operator. In addition to the danger of the operator or others in the area being struck by the flying stock, it is often the case that the operator’s hands are pulled into the blade during the kickback.
Glossary of Terms The following is a list of common definitions, terms and phrases used throughout this manual as they relate to this table saw and woodworking in general. Become familiar with these terms for assembling, adjusting or operating this machine. Your safety is VERY important to us at Grizzly! Arbor: A metal shaft extending from the drive mechanism that is the mounting location for the saw blade. Non-Through Cut: A cut in which the blade does not cut through the top of the workpiece.

Assembly Assembly steps are the same for the Model G0690 and G0691 except where noted. Assembly consists of installing minor components, the extension wings, front and rear rails, extension table, and the legs (Model G0691 only). 3. Thread the handwheel lock knob into the center of the handwheel and tighten, then install the handle into the handwheel using a 14mm wrench (see Figure 13). To assemble the table saw: Handle 1.
5. Insert the lip of the lower part of the dust port into the cabinet and tighten the thumb knob (already installed) to secure (see Figure 15). 9. Place the straightedge across the extension wings and main table to make sure that the combined table surface is flat. — If the combined table surface is flat, skip to the next step. Thumb Knob — If the outside end of the extension wing tilts down, use a strip of masking tape along the bottom edge of the main table to shim the extension wing up (Figure 17).
10. Install the front rail onto the table and extension wings with four M8-1.25 x 40 hex bolts, eight 8mm flat washers, four 8mm lock washers, and four M8-1.25 hex nuts, as shown in Figure 19. G0691 ONLY: Install the 82" front rail rectangular tube onto the 70" front rail with five M6-1 x 16 cap screws, 6mm lock washers, and 6mm flat washers, as shown in Figure 21.
Note: Before tightening the fasteners, check to make sure the top edge of the rear rail is flush with the lowest edge of both T-slots (see Figure 23), so the miter gauge will slide smoothly when installed later. Figure 25. Adjusting Model G0690 extension table flush with extension wing and table. G0691 Extension Table 1. Remove the six M8-1.25 x 30 hex bolts, (12) 8mm flat washers, six 8mm lock washers, and six M8-1.25 hex nuts from the extension table. Figure 23.
5. Adjust the extension table so it is flat (both flush and parallel) with the main table, using a long straightedge (similar to the method shown in Figure 25). This can be done by loosening the mounting bolts and adjusting the feet up/down as needed. 6. Tighten the extension table mounting bolts, and tighten the hex nuts on the feet up against the legs so they will not move. 3. Slide the miter gauge into the T-slot on the left hand side of the blade. Magnetic Switch 1.
— If the fence/miter slot are still parallel with the blade, proceed to Fence Scale. — If the fence is not parallel to the blade/miter slot, then you MUST adjust the fence, as described in Fence Adjustments on Page 69, so that it is parallel to the blade. —If the miter slot is not parallel with the blade, you must follow the procedures described in Miter Slot to Blade Parallelism on Page 67. Figure 30. Securing blade. Checking Fence Parallelism 1. Slide the fence along the rail.
To install the fence scale: 1. Slide the fence up against the saw blade and lock it in place. 2. The blade guard, when properly installed, should look like Figure 34, and should pivot freely so it touches the table surface in the down position. It should also swing up high enough to accommodate the workpiece. Place the front rail tape scale on the fence tube, making sure it is parallel with the tube and that the "0" end is directly under the red line on the pointer window, as shown in Figure 32. 3.
Dust Collection DO NOT operate the Model G0690 or G0691 without an adequate dust collection system. This saw creates substantial amounts of wood dust while operating. Failure to use a dust collection system can result in short and long-term respiratory illness. Components and Hardware Needed: Qty Dust Hose 4 " (not included)................................1 Hose Clamps 4" (not included)...........................2 Dust Collection System (not included)................
Test Run Once the assembly is complete, test run your machine to make sure it runs properly and is ready for regular operation. The test run consists of verifying the following: 1) The motor powers up and runs correctly, and 2) the safety disabling mechanism on the switch works correctly. Pin Figure 39. Switch disabling pin inserted into ON button.

Blade Installation 5. Slide the blade over the arbor with the teeth facing the front of the saw, as shown in Figure 49. The saw blade is sharp. Use extra care or wear gloves when handling the blade or working near it. Review this section, even if your saw blade came pre-installed. Front of Saw Teeth Direction & Blade Rotation To install the blade: 1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER! 2. Put on heavy leather gloves and raise the arbor all the way up. 3.
Blade Guard Assembly The term "blade guard" refers to the assembly that consists of the guard, spreader, and antikickback pawls (see Figure below). Each of these components have important safety functions. 8aZVg H]^ZaY In order to work properly, the spreader cannot be bent or misaligned with the blade. If the spreader gets accidentally bent, take the time to straighten it or just replace it.
If the pawls fail to return to the bottom position, the pivot spring may have been dislodged or broken and will need to be fixed/replaced. The anti-kickback pawls and arresting hooks are constructed to comply with the UL Standard for Safety for Stationary and Fixed Electric Tools, UL 987 (Seventh Edition). Disabling Pawls To disable the pawls, rotate the arresting hooks downward, then place the pawls on each of the hooks, as shown in Figure 52.
Riving Knife The riving knife works in the same manner as the spreader on the blade guard assembly. It is a metal plate that prevents the newly cut workpiece from pinching the backside of the blade and causing kickback. The key difference between the spreader and the riving knife is that the riving knife mounts below the blade's highest point of rotation, as shown in Figure 53. B^c^bjb &bb BVm^bjb *bb =Z^\]i 9^[[ZgZcXZ Figure 53. Height difference between riving knife and blade.
Ripping "Ripping" means cutting with the grain of a natural wood workpiece. In other man-made materials such as MDF or plywood, ripping simply means cutting lengthwise. Note: The jointed edge of the workpiece must slide against the fence during the cutting operation. 10. Use a push stick to feed the workpiece through the saw blade, as shown in Figure 55, until the workpiece is completely past the saw blade. Serious injury can be caused by kickback.
Crosscutting Miter Cuts "Crosscutting" means cutting across the grain of a natural wood workpiece. In other man-made materials, such as MDF or plywood, crosscutting means cutting across the width of the workpiece. A miter is an angled crosscut. Miters are usually cut in the same manner as crosscuts, using the miter gauge and a predetermined mark on the workpiece. To make a crosscut using the miter gauge: To perform a miter cut: 1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER! 1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER! 2.
Blade Tilt/Bevel Cuts Installing a Dado Blade When the blade tilt stop bolts are properly adjusted (Page 65), the blade tilt handwheel allows the operator to tilt the blade to the left, anywhere between 0° and 45°. This is used most often when cutting bevels, compound miters or chamfers. Figure 58 shows an example of the blade when tilted to 45°. 2. Remove the table insert, the blade guard assembly or riving knife, and the saw blade. Figure 58.

Adjust the dado blade to the desired depth of cut. 2.
Cutting Dadoes with a Standard Blade A ripping blade (described on Page 34) is typically the best blade to use for cutting dadoes when using a standard blade, because it removes sawdust very efficiently. 6. Reconnect the saw to the power source and turn the saw ON. Allow the blade to reach full speed, then perform the cutting operation. 7. Repeat the cutting operation on the other side of the dado channel, as shown in Figure 62. To use a standard saw blade to cut dadoes: 1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER! 2.
Rabbet Cutting Commonly used in furniture joinery, a rabbet is an L-shaped groove cut in the edge of the workpiece. Rabbets can be cut with either a dado blade or a standard saw blade. Rabbet cutting on the edge of the workpiece with a dado blade requires a sacrificial fence (Figure 64). Make the sacrificial fence the same length as the fence and 3⁄4" thick. Attach it to the fence with screws or clamps, making sure they are all secure and tight.
Cutting Rabbets with a Standard Blade A ripping blade is typically the best blade to use for cutting rabbets when using a standard blade because it removes sawdust very efficiently. (See Page 34 for blade details.) Also, a sacrificial fence is not required when cutting rabbets with a standard blade. To cut rabbets with the standard blade: 1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER! 2. Ensure that the riving knife and standard table insert are installed. 3.
Resawing Resawing operations require proper procedures to avoid serious injury. Extra care must be taken to prevent kickback when resawing. Any tilting or movement of the workpiece away from the fence will cause kickback. Be certain that stock is flat and straight. Failure to follow these warnings could result in serious personal injury. Resawing is the process of cutting a thick piece of stock into one or more thinner pieces.
Auxiliary Fence Resawing Operations The auxiliary fence is necessary if you are resawing a workpiece that is taller than it is wide. It should be no less than 1⁄2" shorter than the board to be resawn. The table saw motor is pushed to its limits when resawing. If the motor starts to bog down, slow down your feed rate. Motor overloading and blade wear can be reduced by using a ripping blade. Ripping blades are designed to clear the sawdust quickly.
Ldg`e^ZXZ (Front View) 6jm^a^Vgn ;ZcXZ GZhVl 7Vgg^Zg ;ZcXZ 10. Repeat Steps 7–9 until the blade is close to half of the height of the board to be resawn. The ideal completed resaw cut will leave an 1 ⁄8" connection when the resawing is complete as shown in Figure 71. Leaving an 1⁄8" connection will reduce the risk of kickback. Ldg`e^ZXZ GZhVl 7Vgg^Zg Figure 70. Ideal resaw workpiece setup. 6.
SECTION 5: SHOP MADE SAFETY ACCESSORIES Featherboards Easily made from scrap stock, featherboards provide an added degree of protection against kickback, especially when used together with push sticks. They also maintain pressure on the workpiece to keep it against the fence or table while cutting, which makes the operation easier and safer because the cut can be completed without the operator’s hands getting near the blade.
4. Rout a 1⁄4"–3⁄8" wide slot 4"–5" long in the workpiece and 1"–2" from the short end of the featherboard (see Figure 73). $) "($- Hadi & & "' 7. Mark a 4" line through the center of the countersunk hole in the center, then use a jig saw with a narrow blade to cut it out. 8. Assemble the miter bar and featherboard with a 1⁄4"-20 x flat head screw, flat washer, and a wing nut or a star knob (see Figure 75). Congratulations! Your featherboard is complete. ) "* Figure 73. Slot routed in featherboard.
Mounting Featherboards w/Clamps Mounting Featherboard in Miter Slot 1. Lower the saw blade, then adjust the fence to the desired width and secure it. 1. Lower the saw blade, then adjust the fence to the desired width and secure it. 2. Place the workpiece against the fence, making sure it is 1" in front of the blade. 2. Place the workpiece evenly against the fence, making sure it is 1" in front of the blade. 3.
Push Sticks Supporting: A second push stick can be used to keep the workpiece firmly against the fence while cutting. When using a push stick in this manner, only apply pressure before the blade; otherwise, pushing the workpiece against or behind the blade will increase the risk of kickback (see "Push Stick Prohibition Zone" in the Figure below). When used correctly, push sticks reduce the risk of injury by keeping hands away from the blade while cutting.
Push Blocks The notched end of the push block is then used to push the workpiece the rest of the way through the cut, keeping the operator's hands at a safe distance from the blade. A push stick is often used at the same time in the other hand to support the workpiece during the cut (see "Using a Push Stick" on previous page). When used correctly, a push block reduces the risk of injury by keeping hands away from the blade while cutting.
Narrow-Rip Auxiliary Fence & Push Block There are designs for hundreds of specialty jigs that can be found in books, trade magazines, and on the internet. These types of jigs can greatly improve the safety and consistency of cuts. They are particularly useful during production runs when dozens or hundreds of the same type of cut need to be made.
Using the Auxiliary Fence and Push Block 1. Place the auxiliary fence on the table and clamp it to the fence at both ends, then adjust the distance between the auxiliary fence and the blade—this determines how wide the workpiece will be ripped (see Figure 87). 6jm^aa^Vgn ;ZcXZ 6jm^aa^Vgn ;ZcXZ 7aVYZ Ldg`e^ZXZ Ejh] Hi^X` [dg H^YZ Hjeedgi Ejh] 7adX` 7aVYZ EVi] 7aVYZ Figure 88. Push block in position to push workpiece through blade. Ldg`e^ZXZ 8jii^c\ L^Yi] 4. Figure 87.
Outfeed & Support Tables One of the best accessories for improving the safety and ease of using a table saw is simply placing a large table (outfeed table) behind the saw to catch the workpiece (see Figure 90). Additionally, another table to the left of the saw (support table) can also help support large workpieces so they can be cut safely and accurately.

SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE Cleaning Always disconnect power to the machine before performing maintenance. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. Schedule For optimum performance from your machine, follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any specific instructions given in this section. Daily Check: • Inspect blades for damage or wear. • Check for loose mounting bolts/arbor nut. • Check cords, plugs, and switch for damage.
Lubrication An essential step for lubrication is cleaning the components before lubricating them. This idea is critical because dust and chips build up on lubricated components and make the components hard to move. Simply adding more grease to the components with built-up grime on them will not yield smooth moving components. Clean the components in this section with an oil/ grease solvent cleaner.

Replace blade (Page 36). 2. Make table parallel to blade (Page 67). 3. Make fence parallel to blade (Page 69). Blade does reach 90°. 1. Adjust 90° stop bolt (Page 65). 2. Clean sawdust off stop bolt. not 1. 90° stop bolt is out of adjustment. 2. Sawdust stuck on stop bolt. Blade hits insert at 1.
Blade Tilt Stops The table saw features stop bolts that stop the blade exactly at 45° and 90° when tilting it with the handwheel. The stops have been set at the factory and should require no adjustments, unless you notice that your cuts are not accurate. Note: The tilt scale reads "0" when the blade is 90° to the table. Tools Needed Qty 90° Square......................................................... 1 45° Square......................................................... 1 Hex Wrench 3mm...................
—If the blade is 45° to the table, then adjustments do not need to be made. 90° Stop Bolt & Jam Nut —If the blade is not 45° to the table, you will need to adjust the 45° stop screw. Proceed to the next step. 4. Tilt the blade to 15°, so there is room for the stop bolt to move. 5. Remove the dust port to access the stop bolt. Figure 109. 90° stop bolt and jam nut (table removed for clarity). 6. 6.
Miter Slot to Blade Parallelism Tools Needed Qty Adjustable Square.............................................. 1 Metal Shim Stock............................... As Needed Marker................................................................ 1 Your table saw will give the best results if the miter slot and the rip fence are adjusted parallel to the blade.
Spreader or Riving Knife Alignment 6a^\cbZci OdcZ HegZVYZg dg G^k^c\ @c^[Z Checking Alignment The blade guard spreader and riving knife must be aligned with the blade when installed. If the spreader/riving knife is not aligned with the blade, then the workpiece will before forced sideways during the cut, which will increase the risk of kickback. 7aVYZ Figure 115. Spreader/riving knife alignment zone. Tools Needed Qty Straightedge.......................................................
3. Loosen the two cap screws on the mounting block, then adjust either the top or bottom control set screws or side control set screws (see Figure 116) to move it the needed direction. 5. Follow Checking Alignment, Steps 1–3. — If the spreader/riving knife is in the alignment zone, no additional steps are necessary. —If the spreader/riving knife is still not in the alignment zone, continue adjusting the set screws on the mounting block as necessary to correctly position the spreader/ riving knife.
To check/adjust the fence height and squareness to the table: 1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER! 2. Place a square on the table against the face of the fence (Figure 117) to check if the fence is square to the table. —If the gap is uneven, if the fence height is more than 1⁄8", or if the fence touches the table, then continue with Step 5. 5. Adjust the fence height with the rear rail foot until the gap between the table and the fence is approximately 1⁄16" and even from the front of the table to the back.
5. Fence Scale Calibration Measure the distance between the fence and the front of the blade at one end of the table insert, then mark the tooth that you measured from with a felt-tipped marker. 6. Rotate the blade to the other end of the table insert (Figure 120), and recheck the distance between the fence and the blade to ensure they are parallel.
Miter Gauge Adjustments — If the square does not touch the miter body and blade body evenly at the same time, then proceed to Step 5. 5. The miter gauge can be adjusted so it is perpendicular to the blade and so it is snug in the T-slot. Loosen the button head cap screws on the positive stop knob block (see Figure 124), adjust the miter body until it is flush with the square, then tighten the screws. Tools Needed Qty 90° Square......................................................... 1 45° Square.......
Belt Tension & Replacement EjaaZn The three V-belts stretch slightly as the saw is used. Most of the belt stretching will happen during the first 16 hours of use, but it may continue in small increments through continued use. 1 Tools Needed Qty Wrenches 18mm................................................ 2 EjaaZn Tensioning Belt — If there is more than 1⁄2" deflection when the V-belts are pushed with moderate pressure, loosen the hex nuts, adjust the motor downward, then tighten the hex nuts. 2.
