SECTION 4: OPERATIONS
Operation Overview
The purpose of this overview is to provide the nov-
ice machine operator with a basic understanding
of how the machine is used during operation, so
the machine controls/components discussed later
in this manual are easier to understand.
Due to the generic nature of this overview, it is
not intended to be an instructional guide. To learn
more about specific operations, read this entire
manual and seek additional training from expe-
rienced machine operators, and do additional
research outside of this manual by reading "how-
to" books, trade magazines, or websites.
To reduce your risk of
serious injury, read this
entire manual BEFORE
using machine.
To reduce risk of eye injury from flying
chips or lung damage from breathing dust,
always wear safety glasses and a respirator
when operating this machine.
If you are not experienced with this type
of machine, WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND
that you seek additional training outside of
this manual. Read books/magazines or get
formal training before beginning any proj-
ects. Regardless of the content in this sec-
tion, Grizzly Industrial will not be held liable
for accidents caused by lack of training.
To complete a typical sanding operation, the
operator does the following:
1. Examines workpiece to verify it is suitable for
sanding and to determine which sanding belt
grit size to start with.
2. Installs and tensions sanding belt. Adjusts
platen position as necessary.
3. Verifies workpiece will have necessary
outfeed clearance and support. If workpiece
is wider than conveyor table, operator adjusts
table extension for workpiece width.
4. Adjusts table height to approximate workpiece
thickness.
5. Puts on required safety glasses and respirator.
6. Ensures dust collection system is connected
to dust port, and starts dust collector.
7. Starts main sanding motor, then feed motor.
8. Feeds workpiece into sander by placing front
end on infeed side of conveyor table and
supporting back end until workpiece engages
with pressure rollers.
Note: During initial
pass with a new workpiece, operator adjusts
table height as necessary so workpiece only
makes light contact with sanding belt and
does not overload sander.
9. Receives workpiece from outfeed side of
conveyor table. If workpiece is wider than
conveyor table, operator rotates workpiece
180° and feeds workpiece back through
sander.
10. Raises height of conveyor table a small
amount (
1
⁄
4
to 1 full rotation of handwheel),
then repeats the feeding process of workpiece
through sander.
11. Changes sandpaper to a finer grit.
12. Repeats Steps 8–11 as needed, turns sand-
er
OFF, and disconnects it from power.
