How to address blade twisting on my Grizzly G1011Z Saw?
Blade twisting on your Grizzly Saw may be due to the blade not being aligned with the blade guides, so adjust the support and guide bearings and check the alignment of the blade to the table. Excessive feed pressure could also cause this, so adjust the spring tension to reduce feed pressure. Another potential cause is excessive feed rate, so reduce the feed rate at the control panel.
What to do if my Grizzly Saw motor will not start?
If the motor of your Grizzly Saw won't start, it could be due to low voltage, so check the power line for proper voltage. Another potential cause is an open circuit in the motor, control panel, or magnetic starter. Inspect all lead connections on the motor, switch, and starter for loose or open connections.
How to fix a Grizzly G1011Z Saw that's cutting not straight?
If your Grizzly Saw is not cutting straight, it could be due to several factors. The wheels may be out of line, so adjust the blade tracking. The guides might be misaligned, so adjust the support and guide bearings. Excessive feed pressure could also be the cause, so adjust the spring tension to reduce feed pressure. Additionally, insufficient blade tension could be the reason, so increase the blade tension. Finally, ensure the work is secured in the vise by checking that the vise is tight to the bed and the movable jaw is tight on the material to be cut.
Why does my Grizzly Saw motor overheat?
If your Grizzly Saw motor overheats, it could be due to the motor being overloaded, so reduce the load on the motor. Another cause could be restricted air circulation through the motor, so clean out the motor to provide normal air circulation.
What causes premature tooth wear on a Grizzly G1011Z?
Premature tooth wear on your Grizzly Saw can be caused by several factors. Dry cutting can lead to this issue, so ensure you are using the coolant system. A blade that is too coarse can also cause premature wear, so use a finer tooth blade. Insufficient feed rate, where the blade rides in the cut, can also be a factor, so increase the feed rate. Excessive speed can also contribute to this problem, so reduce the cutting speed. Lastly, an uneven tooth set can cause premature wear, so replace the blade or have it professionally sharpened.
What to do if my Grizzly G1011Z Saw motor stalls?
If your Grizzly Saw motor stalls, resulting in blown fuses or a tripped circuit, inspect connections on the motor for loose or shorted terminals or worn insulation. Low voltage could be the issue, so correct the low voltage conditions. Also, incorrect fuses or circuit breakers in the power line could be the cause, so install correct fuses or circuit breakers. Finally, the motor may be overloaded, so reduce the load on the motor.
Why does my Grizzly Saw blade break teeth?
Teeth breakage on your Grizzly Saw blade could be due to several reasons: using too few teeth per inch, so use a finer tooth blade ensuring at least three teeth contact the workpiece; excessive loading of gullets, so use coolant or increase coolant flow, or use a coarser tooth blade; excessive feed rate, so decrease feed rate; or the work is not secured in the vise, so check that vise is tight to the bed and the movable jaw is tightened.
Why does the Grizzly G1011Z Saw motor and blade speed slow down during operation?
If the motor and blade speed of your Grizzly Saw slow down during operation, it may be due to excessive feed pressure, so adjust the spring tension to reduce feed pressure. Another reason could be a dull blade, so replace the blade.
What causes my Grizzly G1011Z blade to not cut evenly?
If your Grizzly Saw blade does not cut evenly, it could be due to incorrect blade tension, so adjust the tension. Another cause could be an uneven tooth set, so replace the blade or have it professionally sharpened. It's also possible that the teeth are sharper on one side than the other, in which case you should replace the blade or have it professionally sharpened.
What causes repetitive ticking noise when the blade is on in my Grizzly G1011Z?
A repetitive ticking noise when the blade is on in your Grizzly Saw could be caused by the blade weld contacting support or guide bearings, so use a file or stone to smooth and round the back of the blade. Alternatively, the blade weld may be failing, so inspect and replace the blade if necessary.
