section 6: maintenance
Cleaning the Model g9983 is relatively easy.
vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and
wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth. if any
resin has built up, use a resin dissolving cleaner
to remove it. use a sanding pad to clean the sand-
ing belt on a regular basis (see the previous page
for an option from grizzly).

follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any
specific instructions given in this section.

•
loose mounting bolts.
•
Check/clean/replace sanding belt.
•
Check/empty air regulator filters.
•
Worn or damaged cords, plugs or switch.
•
damaged v-belt.

any other condition that could hamper the
safe operation of this machine.
schedule
to reduce risk of shock or
accidental startup, always
disconnect machine from
power before adjustments,
maintenance, or service.
Moving parts, such as chains, should be lubri-
cated periodically with a light machine oil. do not
use too much lubrication because excess can
attract dirt and sawdust and will clog the chain
mechanism.
emptying regulator
filters
there are two filters on the Model g9983. the
first filter is located under the main regulator that
houses the pressure gauge. the second filter,
shown in
figure 25, is located near the oscillation
controls. since the eye fork configuration is prone
to collecting sawdust, check and empty this filter
often.
figure 25. unscrew this filter to empty it.
