INTRODUCTION  
Machine Description  
Manual Accuracy  
The metal lathe is used to remove material from  
a workpiece that is mounted to the spindle and  
rotated over the bed. The cutting tool is mounted  
alongside the bed and moved against the spin-  
ning workpiece to cut it.  
We are proud to provide a high-quality owner’s  
manual with your new machine!  
We made every effort to be exact with the instruc-  
tions, specifications, drawings, and photographs  
in this manual. Sometimes we make mistakes, but  
our policy of continuous improvement also means  
that sometimes the machine you receive is  
slightly different than shown in the manual.  
Typical metal lathe cutting operations include fac-  
ing, turning, parting, drilling, reaming, grooving,  
knurling, and threading. There are a wide variety  
of tools and workpiece holding devices available  
for each of these operations.  
If you find this to be the case, and the difference  
between the manual and machine leaves you  
confused or unsure about something, check our  
website for an updated version. We post current  
manuals and manual updates for free on our web-  
site at www.grizzly.com.  
The G0765 features an electronic variable-speed  
control and digital RPM display that make it pos-  
sible to select speeds within the selected range  
while the machine is running.  
Alternatively, you can call our Technical Support  
for help. Before calling, make sure you write down

SECTION 1: SAFETY  
For Your Own Safety, Read Instruction  
Manual Before Operating This Machine  
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions.  
This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words intended to convey the level of impor-  
tance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that  
safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper  
accident prevention measures. Always use common sense and good judgment.  
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
WILL result in death or serious injury.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
COULD result in death or serious injury.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,  
MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert  
against unsafe practices.  
This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about  
proper operation of the machine.

can be shocked, burned, or killed by touching live  
electrical components or improperly grounded  
machinery. To reduce this risk, only allow qualified  
service personnel to do electrical installation or  
repair work, and always disconnect power before  
accessing or exposing electrical equipment.  
TRAINED OPERATORS ONLY. Untrained oper-  
ators have a higher risk of being hurt or killed.  
Only allow trained/supervised people to use this  
machine. When machine is not being used, dis-  
connect power, remove switch keys, or lock-out  
machine to prevent unauthorized use—especially  
around children. Make workshop kid proof!  
DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. Always discon-  
nect machine from power supply BEFORE making  
adjustments, changingtooling, orservicingmachine.  
This prevents an injury risk from unintended startup  
or contact with live electrical components.  
DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do not use  
machinery in areas that are wet, cluttered, or have  
poor lighting. Operating machinery in these areas  
greatly increases the risk of accidents and injury.  
EYE PROTECTION. Always wear ANSI-approved  
safety glasses or a face shield when operating or  
observing machinery to reduce the risk of eye  
injury or blindness from flying particles. Everyday  
eyeglasses are NOT approved safety glasses.  
MENTAL ALERTNESS REQUIRED. Full mental  
alertness is required for safe operation of machin-  
ery. Never operate under the influence of drugs or  
alcohol, when tired, or when distracted.

clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become  
entangled in moving parts. Always tie back or  
cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce  
risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally  
contacting cutting tool or moving parts.  
It will do the job safer and better at the rate for  
which it was designed.  
NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury  
may occur if machine is tipped or if the cutting  
tool is unintentionally contacted.  
HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created by machinery  
operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or  
long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust  
hazards associated with each workpiece mate-  
rial. Always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to  
reduce your risk.  
STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement dur-  
ing operation greatly increases risk of injury or  
loss of control. Before starting, verify machine is  
stable and mobile base (if used) is locked.  
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult  
this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for rec-  
ommended accessories. Using improper acces-  
sories will increase the risk of serious injury.  
HEARING PROTECTION. Always wear hear-  
ing protection when operating or observing loud  
machinery. Extended exposure to this noise  
without hearing protection can cause permanent  
hearing loss.  
UNATTENDED OPERATION. To reduce the  
risk of accidental injury, turn machine OFF and  
ensure all moving parts completely stop before  
walking away. Never leave machine running  
while unattended.  
REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS. Tools left on  
machinery can become dangerous projectiles  
upon startup. Never leave chuck keys, wrenches,  
or any other tools on machine. Always verify  
removal before starting!  
MAINTAIN WITH CARE. Follow all maintenance  
instructions and lubrication schedules to keep  
machine in good working condition. A machine  
that is improperly maintained could malfunction,  
leading to serious personal injury or death.  
USE CORRECT TOOL FOR THE JOB. Only use  
this tool for its intended purpose—do not force  
it or an attachment to do a job for which it was  
not designed. Never make unapproved modifica-  
tions—modifying tool or using it differently than  
intended may result in malfunction or mechanical  
failure that can lead to personal injury or death!  
DAMAGED PARTS. Regularly inspect machine  
for damaged, loose, or mis-adjusted parts—or  
any condition that could affect safe operation.  
Immediately repair/replace BEFORE operating  
machine. For your own safety, DO NOT operate  
machine with damaged parts!  
AWKWARD POSITIONS. Keep proper footing  
and balance at all times when operating machine.  
Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand positions  
that make workpiece control difficult or increase  
the risk of accidental injury.  
MAINTAIN POWER CORDS. When disconnect-  
ing cord-connected machines from power, grab  
and pull the plug—NOT the cord. Pulling the cord  
may damage the wires inside. Do not handle  
cord/plug with wet hands. Avoid cord damage by  
keeping it away from heated surfaces, high traffic  
areas, harsh chemicals, and wet/damp locations.  
CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep children and  
bystanders at a safe distance from the work area.  
Stop using machine if they become a distraction.  
GUARDS & COVERS. Guards and covers reduce  
accidental contact with moving parts or flying  
debris. Make sure they are properly installed,  
undamaged, and working correctly BEFORE  
operating machine.  
EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time  
you experience difficulties performing the intend-  
ed operation, stop using the machine! Contact our  
Technical Support at (570) 546-9663.

ability and proximity of the required power supply  
circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the  
requirements for this machine, a new circuit must  
be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution,  
fire, or equipment damage, installation work and  
electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or  
qualified service personnel in accordance with all  
applicable codes and standards.  
Serious injury could occur if you connect  
machine to power before completing setup  
process. DO NOT connect to power until  
instructed later in this manual.  
110V Circuit Requirements  
This machine is prewired to operate on a power  
supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets  
the following requirements:  
Nominal Voltage .................... 110V, 115V, 120V  
Cycle..........................................................60 Hz  
Phase........................................... Single-Phase  
Power Supply Circuit ......................... 15 Amps  
Electrocution, fire, or  
equipment damage may  
occur if machine is not  
correctly grounded and  
connected to the power  
supply.  
A power supply circuit includes all electrical  
equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel  
in the building and the machine. The power sup-  
ply circuit used for this machine must be sized to  
safely handle the full-load current drawn from the  
machine for an extended period of time. (If this  
machine is connected to a circuit protected by  
fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)  
Full-Load Current Rating  
The full-load current rating is the amperage a  
machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.  
On machines with multiple motors, this is the  
amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all  
motors and electrical devices that might operate  
at one time during normal operations.  
For your own safety and protection of  
property, consult an electrician if you are  
unsure about wiring practices or electrical  
codes in your area.  
Full-Load Rating..........................................10A  
The full-load current is not the maximum amount  
of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine  
is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond  
the full-load rating.  
Note: Circuit requirements in this manual apply to  
a dedicated circuit—where only one machine will  
be running on the circuit at a time. If machine will  
be connected to a shared circuit where multiple  
machines may be running at the same time, con-  
sult an electrician or qualified service personnel to  
ensure circuit is properly sized for safe operation.  
If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length  
of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result—  
especially if connected to an undersized circuit.  
To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid over-  
loading the machine during operation and make  
sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that  
meets the specified circuit requirements.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding  
wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The  
wire with green insulation (with or without yellow  
stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair  
or replacement of the power cord or plug is nec-  
essary, do not connect the equipment-grounding  
wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.  
Grounding & Plug Requirements  
This machine MUST be grounded. In the event  
of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding  
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a  
path of least resistance for electric current.  
This machine is equipped with a power cord that  
has an equipment-grounding wire and a grounding  
plug. Only insert plug into a matching receptacle  
(outlet) that is properly installed and grounded in  
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.  
DO NOT modify the provided plug!  
Check with a qualified electrician or service per-  
sonnel if you do not understand these grounding  
requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether  
the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice  
that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, discon-  
nect it from power, and immediately replace it with  
a new one.

Extension Cords  
Grounding Prong  
We do not recommend using an extension cord  
with this machine. If you must use an extension  
cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only  
on a temporary basis.  
5-15 PLUG  
Extension cords cause voltage drop, which can  
damage electrical components and shorten motor  
life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord  
size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller  
(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).  
Neutral Hot  
Figure 7. Typical 5-15 plug and receptacle.  
Any extension cord used with this machine must  
be in good condition and contain a ground wire  
and matching plug/receptacle. Additionally, it must  
meet the following size requirements:  
Minimum Gauge Size...........................14 AWG  
Maximum Length (Shorter is Better).......50 ft.  
SHOCK HAZARD!  
Two-prong outlets do not meet the grounding  
requirements for this machine. Do not modify  
or use an adapter on the plug provided—if  
it will not fit the outlet, have a qualified  
electrician install the proper outlet with a  
verified ground.

Cleanup  
Gasoline and petroleum  
products have low flash  
points and can explode  
or cause fire if used to  
clean machinery. Avoid  
using these products  
to clean machinery.  
The unpainted surfaces of your machine are  
coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that  
prevents corrosion during shipment and storage.  
This rust preventative works extremely well, but it  
will take a little time to clean.  
Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your  
machine. The time you spend doing this now will  
give you a better appreciation for the proper care  
of your machine's unpainted surfaces.  
Many cleaning solvents  
are toxic if inhaled. Only  
work in a well-ventilated  
area.  
There are many ways to remove this rust preven-  
tative, but the following steps work well in a wide  
variety of situations. Always follow the manufac-  
turer’s instructions with any cleaning product you  
use and make sure you work in a well-ventilated  
area to minimize exposure to toxic fumes.  
NOTICE  
Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as  
acetone or brake parts cleaner, that may  
damage painted surfaces.  
Before cleaning, gather the following:  
Disposable rags  
Cleaner/degreaser (WD•40 works well)  
Safety glasses & disposable gloves  
Plastic paint scraper (optional)  
T23692—Orange Power Degreaser  
A great product for removing the waxy shipping  
grease from your machine during clean up.  
Basic steps for removing rust preventative:  
1. Put on safety glasses.  
2. Coat the rust preventative with a liberal  
amount of cleaner/degreaser, then let it soak  
for 5–10 minutes.  
3. Wipe off the surfaces. If your cleaner/degreas-  
er is effective, the rust preventative will wipe  
off easily. If you have a plastic paint scraper,  
scrape off as much as you can first, then wipe  
off the rest with the rag.  
Figure 12. T23692 Orange Power Degreaser.  
4. Repeat Steps 2–3 as necessary until clean,  
then coat all unpainted surfaces with a quality  
metal protectant to prevent rust.

Site Considerations  
Weight Load  
Physical Environment  
Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight  
of your machine. Make sure that the surface upon  
which the machine is placed will bear the weight  
of the machine, additional equipment that may be  
installed on the machine, and the heaviest work-  
piece that will be used. Additionally, consider the  
weight of the operator and any dynamic loading  
that may occur when operating the machine.  
The physical environment where the machine is  
operated is important for safe operation and lon-  
gevity of machine components. For best results,  
operate this machine in a dry environment that is  
free from excessive moisture, hazardous chemi-  
cals, airborne abrasives, or extreme conditions.  
Extreme conditions for this type of machinery are  
generally those where the ambient temperature  
range exceeds 41°–104°F; the relative humidity  
range exceeds 20%–95% (non-condensing); or  
the environment is subject to vibration, shocks,  
or bumps.  
Space Allocation  
Consider the largest size of workpiece that will  
be processed through this machine and provide  
enough space around the machine for adequate  
operator material handling or the installation of  
auxiliary equipment. With permanent installations,  
leave enough space around the machine to open  
or remove doors/covers as required by the main-  
tenance and service described in this manual.  
See below for required space allocation.  
Electrical Installation  
Place this machine near an existing power source.  
Make sure all power cords are protected from  
traffic, material handling, moisture, chemicals, or  
other hazards. Make sure to leave enough space  
around machine to disconnect power supply or  
apply a lockout/tagout device, if required.  
Lighting  
Children or untrained people  
may be seriously injured by  
this machine. Only install in an  
access restricted location.  
Lighting around the machine must be adequate  
enough that operations can be performed safely.

Spindle Break-In  
Recommended  
Adjustments  
Before subjecting the spindle to operational loads,  
it is essential to complete the break-in process.  
This helps maximize the life of spindle bearings  
and other precision components by thoroughly  
lubricating them before placing them under load.  
The following adjustments have been made at the  
factory. However, because of the many variables  
involved with shipping, we recommend you verify  
these adjustments to ensure the best results:  
The break-in must be performed in succession  
with the Test Run procedure described in this  
manual, as the steps in that procedure prepare  
the lathe controls for the break-in process.  
Factory adjustments that should be verified:  
Tailstock alignment (Page 32).  
Cross slide backlash adjustment (Page 56).  
Gib adjustments (Page 57).  
DO NOT perform this procedure indepen-  
dently of the Test Run section. The lathe  
could be seriously damaged if the controls  
are set differently than instructed in that  
section.  
To perform the spindle break-in:  
1. Successfully complete the Test Run proce-  
dure beginning on Page 21.  
2. Set spindle direction switch to "F" (forward),  
ensure range lever is in LOW, and operate  
lathe for 10 minutes at 100 RPM.  
3. Operate lathe at 1000 RPM for 10 minutes,  
then turn variable speed dial to "0" to stop  
spindle.  
4. Shift range control lever to HIGH, then oper-  
ate lathe at 2000 RPM for 10 minutes, then  
stop spindle.  
5. Run lathe in reverse at 2000 RPM for 10 min-  
utes, then turn speed dial to "0", turn spindle  
direction switch to "0", and press Emergency  
Stop button.  
Congratulations! Spindle break-in is complete.

To complete a typical operation, the operator  
does the following:  
Operation Overview  
1. Puts on safety glasses, rolls up sleeves,  
removes jewelry, and secures any clothing or  
hair that could get entangled in moving parts.  
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.  
2. Examines workpiece to make sure it is suit-  
able for turning, then securely mounts it in  
lathe.  
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.  
3. Installs tooling, aligns it with workpiece, then  
backs it away to establish a safe startup  
clearance.  
4. Removes all setup tools from lathe.  
5. Checks for safe clearances by rotating  
workpiece by hand at least one full revolution.  
6. Moves slides to where they will be used dur-

ing operation.  
7. If using power feed, selects appropriate feed  
rate and direction.  
8. Resets Emergency Stop button and turns  
spindle direction switch to "F".  
To reduce the risk of  
eye injury from flying  
chips always wear safety  
glasses.  
9. Rotates variable speed dial to set correct  
spindle speed.  
10. Uses carriage handwheels or power feed  
options to move the tooling into workpiece for  
operations.  
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.  
11. When finished turning, rotates variable speed  
dial to "0" to stop spindle, presses Emergency  
Stop button, then removes workpiece.

Chuck & Faceplate  
Mounting  
Installation &  
Removal Device  
This lathe is equipped with an intrinsic backplate  
spindle nose. With this type of spindle, a chuck or  
faceplate is mounted directly to the backplate with  
hex nuts.  
Place a piece of plywood over the bedways to pro-  
tect them from damage if a chuck or other tooling  
is dropped (see below).  
Plywood Protection  
Plate for Chucks  
Installed by Hand  
Never use spindle speeds faster than chuck  
RPM rating or safe limits of your workpiece.  
Excessive spindle speeds greatly increase  
risk of workpiece or chuck being thrown  
from machine with deadly force!  
Figure 18. Example of common device used  
during chuck installation and removal.  
This lathe ships with the 3-jaw chuck installed.  
This is a scroll-type chuck where all three jaws  
move in unison when the chuck key is used.  
The included faceplate has slots for T-bolts that  
hold standard or custom clamping hardware. With  
the correct clamping hardware, a faceplate offers  
a wide range of uses, including machining non-  
concentric workpieces, straight turning between  
centers, off-center turning, and boring.

Scroll Chuck  
Clamping  
Changing Jaw Set  
The 3-jaw scroll chuck included with the lathe  
features inside and outside hardened steel jaw  
sets (see Figure below), which move in unison to  
center a concentric workpiece.  
This 3-jaw, scroll-type chuck has an internal scroll-  
gear that moves all jaws in unison when adjusted  
with the chuck key. This chuck holds cylindrical  
parts on-center with the axis of spindle rotation  
and can be rotated at high speeds if the workpiece  
is properly clamped and balanced.  
When installing the jaws, it is important to make  
sure they are installed correctly. Incorrect installa-  
tion will result in jaws that do not converge evenly  
and are unable to securely clamp a workpiece.  
Never mix jaw types or positions to  
accommodate an odd-shaped workpiece. The  
chuck will spin out of balance and may throw the  
workpiece! Instead, use an independent jaw chuck  
or a faceplate.

To mount non-concentric workpiece to face-  
plate:  
Faceplate  
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!  
Refer to the prior Chuck Installation subsection  
for instructions on installing the faceplate.  
2. Use appropriate device to protect ways (refer  
to Installation & Removal Device subsec-  
tion).  
The faceplate included with your lathe can be  
used for a wide range of operations, including  
machining non-concentric workpieces, straight  
turning between centers, off-center turning, and  
boring.  
3. With help from another person or holding  
device to support workpiece, position it onto  
faceplate and clamp it in place with a mini-  
mum of three independent clamping devices  
(see below for an example).  
The tools needed for mounting a workpiece will  
vary depending on the type of setup you have.  
Be sure to take into account rotational and  
cutting forces that will be applied to work-  
piece when clamping it to faceplate. If neces-  
sary, use counter-weights to balance assem-  
bly and use a dial indicator to make sure  
workpiece is properly positioned for your  
operation.  
Machining non-concentric workpieces at  
high speeds could cause workpiece to be  
thrown from lathe with deadly force. To  
reduce this risk, use a low RPM, and use  
counter-weights to balance faceplate or  
workpiece.  
Non-Cylindrical  
Workpiece  
Failure to properly secure workpiece to  
faceplate could cause workpiece to be  
thrown from lathe with deadly force. To  
reduce this risk, use a minimum of THREE  
independent clamping devices to hold  
workpiece onto faceplate.

Increments................................................. 0.001"  
One Full Revolution...................................0.200"  
The tailstock is typically used to support long  
workpieces at the side opposite the spindle, using  
a live or dead center. It can also hold a tapered  
drill bit (or a drill chuck with a regular drill bit) for  
boring holes. Unlike boring done with a drill press  
where the workpiece is fixed and the drill bit  
rotates, the drill bit in a tailstock remains station-  
ary while the workpiece is rotated by the spindle.  
Increments on Quill Scale  
Inch ................................ 0"–2" in 18" Increments  
Metric .................... 0–50mm in 1mm Increments  
Positioning Tailstock  
1. Rotate tailstock lock lever clockwise (facing  
machine) to unlock tailstock from bedways.  
The entire tailstock can be repositioned and  
locked in place along the length of the bed. An  
independently controlled offset adjustment allows  
the upper part of the tailstock to move perpen-  
dicular to the bedways so it can be aligned with  
the spindle center (for concentric turning) or offset  
from the spindle center (for tapered turning).  
2. Slide tailstock to desired position by pushing  
it along the bedways.  
3. Rotate tailstock lock lever counterclockwise  
to lock tailstock against bedways.  
Using Quill  
1. Loosen quill lock lever.  
The tailstock quill also features independent  
adjustment controls that allow it to be advanced  
toward the spindle or locked firmly in position.  
2. Turn quill handwheel clockwise to move quill  
toward spindle or counterclockwise to move it  
away from it.

Note: If the tooling has an open hole in the end,  
then a screw can be threaded into the end of the  
tool to provide a solid surface for the quill pin to  
push against when the quill is retracted for tool  
removal. Otherwise, removal of such tooling may  
be difficult.

lint or oil remains on tapers.  
Figure 28. Types of tapered arbors and tooling.  
3. With a firm and quick motion, insert tool into  
quill. Check to see if it is firmly seated by  
attempting to twist it—a firmly seated tool will  
not twist.  
4. Unlock tailstock and move it until tip of tool  
is close to, but not touching, workpiece, then  
lock tailstock.  
5. Start spindle rotation, unlock quill lock lever,  
then turn quill handwheel clockwise to feed  
tool into workpiece.  
Removing Tooling  
1. Use shop rag to hold tool.  
2. Rotate quill handwheel counterclockwise to  
fully retract quill into tailstock until tool is  
forced out of quill.

Offsetting Tailstock  
the tailstock.  
The tailstock quill can be offset from the spin-  
dle centerline for turning tapers. Offsetting quill  
toward the front of the lathe results in a taper  
at the tailstock end. Conversely, offsetting quill  
toward the back of the lathe results in a taper at  
the spindle end.

check quill movement while adjusting the screws.  
Aligning Tailstock to Spindle  
Centerline  
This is an essential adjustment that should be ver-  
ified or performed each time the tailstock is used  
to turn concentric workpieces between centers  
or immediately after offsetting the tailstock when  
turning a taper. If the tailstock is not aligned with  
the spindle centerline when it is supposed to be,  
turning results will be inaccurate along the length  
of the workpiece.

Manual Feed  
Spindle Speed  
The cutting tool can be manually fed into the  
workpiece using the carriage, cross slide, and  
compound rest handwheels shown below.  
Using the correct spindle speed is important for  
getting safe and satisfactory results, as well as  
maximizing tool life.  
To set the spindle speed for your operation, you  
will need to: 1) Determine the best spindle speed  
for the cutting task, and 2) configure the lathe  
controls to produce the required spindle speed.  
Carriage

Determining Spindle Speed  
Many variables affect the optimum spindle speed  
to use for any given operation, but the two most  
important are the recommended cutting speed for  
the workpiece material and the diameter of the  
workpiece, as noted in the formula shown below.

The carriage handwheel moves the carriage left  
or right along the bed. Adjust the position of the  
graduated scale by holding the handwheel with  
one hand and turning the dial with the other.  
Figure 46. Spindle speed formula for lathes.  
Cutting speed, typically defined in feet per minute  
(FPM), is the speed at which the edge of a tool  
moves across the material surface.  
Cross Slide Handwheel  
Graduated Dial  
Increments............................... 0.001" (0.025mm)  
One Full Revolution..................... 0.04" (1.02mm)  
A recommended cutting speed is an ideal speed  
for cutting a type of material in order to produce  
the desired finish and optimize tool life.  
Use this handwheel to move the tool toward and  
away from the work. The cross slide handwheel  
has an indirect-read graduated dial. This means  
the distance shown on the scale represents the  
actual distance the tool moves.  
The books Machinery’s Handbook or Machine  
Shop Practice, and some internet sites, pro-  
vide excellent recommendations for which cutting  
speeds to use when calculating the spindle speed.  
These sources also provide a wealth of additional  
information about the variables that affect cutting  
speed and they are a good educational resource.

Also, there are a large number of easy-to-use  
spindle speed calculators that can be found on  
the internet. These sources will help you take into  
account the applicable variables in order to deter-  
mine the best spindle speed for the operation.  
Use this handwheel to move the cutting tool lin-  
early along the set angle of the compound rest.  
Set the compound rest angle by hand-rotating it  
and securing in place with two cap screws. The  
compound rest has an indirect-read graduated

B. Feed Direction Lever: Selects carriage trav-  
el direction. The carriage moves left when  
feed direction lever is up, half nut lever is  
engaged, and spindle switch is set to "F".  
Power Feed  
The carriage has power feed options for either  
threading or non-threading operations. However,  
this subsection only covers using the power feed  
option for non-threading operations. To learn how  
to power the carriage for threading operations,  
refer to Threading on Page 46.  
The carriage moves right when the feed  
direction lever is all the way down. The car-  
riage will not move when the lever is in the  
center position.  
Carriage travel direction reverses when the  
spindle switch is set to "R".  
To avoid damaging lathe, ALWAYS make  
sure spindle is completely stopped BEFORE  
using headstock controls to make changes.

Power Feed Controls  
Use the following descriptions and figures to  
understand the power feed controls.  
Before using power feed, you may have to recon-  
figure the end gears, depending on how they are  
set up. The lathe comes from the factory with the  
end gears setup in the standard configuration  
(refer to End Gears on Page 43). This end gear  
configuration achieves a fixed feed rate of 0.04 in/  
rev. Refer to End Gears on Page 43 for detailed  
instructions on how to configure the end gears.

Primary Threading Configuration  
End Gears  
This threading configuration is used for inch and  
metric threading. Mesh the A, B, and D gears, as  
shown in Figure 56. The C gear does not mesh  
with any other gears in this configuration, so it is  
not important which gear is installed in the C posi-  
tion. The B and C gears share a keyed bushing.  
The end gears must be correctly setup for power  
feed and threading. Use the photo below to  
identify the A, B, C, and D change gears, which  
are also referenced on the headstock feed rate  
gear chart.

SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE  
Daily, After Operations  
Press the Emergency Stop button (to prevent  
accidental startup).  
Vacuum/clean all chips and swarf from bed,  
slides.  
Wipe down all unpainted or machined sur-  
faces with an oiled rag.  
Always disconnect power  
to the machine before  
performing maintenance.  
Failure to do this may  
result in serious person-  
al injury.  
Annually  
Lubricate change gear bushing and tumbler  
gears (Page 53).  
Schedule  
Ongoing  
To maintain a low risk of injury and proper  
machine operation, if you ever observe any of the  
items below, shut down the machine immediately  
and fix the problem before continuing operations:  
Cleaning/Protecting  
Because of its importance, we recommend that  
the cleaning routine be planned into the workflow  
schedule.  
Loose mounting bolts or fasteners.  
Worn, frayed, cracked, or damaged wires.  
Guards or covers removed.  
Emergency Stop button not working cor-  
rectly.  
Typically, the easiest way to clean swarf from the  
machine is to use a wet/dry shop vacuum that is  
dedicated for this purpose. The small chips left  
over after vacuuming can be wiped up with a  
slightly oiled rag. Avoid using compressed air to  
blow off chips, as this may drive them deeper into  
the moving surfaces or cause sharp chips to fly  
into your face or hands.  
Damaged or malfunctioning components.  
Daily, Before Operations  
Add oil to the ball oilers (Page 51).  
Lubricate the leadscrew and carriage rack  
(Page 52).  
All unpainted and machined surfaces should be  
wiped down daily to keep them rust free and in top  
condition. This includes any surface that is vulner-  
able to rust if left unprotected. Use a quality ISO  
68 way oil (see Page 49 for offerings from Grizzly)  
to prevent corrosion.  
Lubricate the bedways (Page 52).  
Clean/lubricate the cross slide and com-  
pound slide (Page 52).  
Disengage the half nut on the carriage (to  
prevent crashes upon startup).

alone unless they need to be replaced.  
This lathe has four ball oilers that should be oiled  
on a daily basis before beginning operation.  
Before performing any lubrication task,  
DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!  
Proper lubrication of ball oilers is done with a  
pump-type oil can that has a plastic or rubber-  
ized cone tip. We do not recommend using metal  
needle or lance tips, as they can push the ball too  
far into the oiler, break the spring seat, and lodge  
the ball in the oil galley.  
We recommend using Model SB1365 Way Oil or  
equivalent (see Page 49) for most of the lubrica-  
tion tasks.  
Lubrication Frequency  
Page  
Ref.  
Lubrication Task  
Frequency  
Lubricate the ball oilers before and after machine  
use, and more frequently under heavy use. When  
lubricating ball oilers, first clean the outside sur-  
face to remove any dust or grime. Push the tip of  
the oil can nozzle against the ball oiler to create  
a hydraulic seal, then pump the oil can once or  
twice. If you see sludge and contaminants coming  
out of the lubrication area, keep pumping the oil  
can until the oil runs clear. When finished, wipe  
away any excess oil.

NOTICE  
The recommended lubrication is based on  
light-to-medium usage. Keeping in mind  
that lubrication helps to protect the value  
and operation of the lathe, these lubrication  
tasks may need to be performed more fre-  
quently than recommended here, depend-  
ing on usage.  
Failure to follow reasonable lubrication  
practices as instructed in this manual could  
lead to premature failure of lathe compo-  
nents and will void the warranty.

Preparing Lathe for Storage  
1. DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!  
The plastic end gears do not need to be lubri-  
cated. However, we recommend lightly lubricating  
the B/C change gear keyed bushing with white  
lithium grease.  
2. Thoroughly clean all unpainted, bare metal  
surfaces, then apply a liberal coat of way oil,  
heavy grease, or rust preventative. Take care  
to ensure these surfaces are completely cov-  
ered but that the rust preventative or grease  
is kept off of painted surfaces.  
Keyed Bushing  
3. Lubricate machine as outlined in lubrication  
section. Be sure to use an oil can to purge all  
ball oilers and oil passages with fresh oil.  
4. Place a few moisture absorbing desiccant  
packs inside of the electrical box.  
Gear  
Shaft  
5. Cover lathe and place it in a dry area that is  
out of direct sunlight and away from hazard-  
ous fumes, paint, solvents, or gas. Fumes  
and sunlight can bleach or discolor paint.  
Figure 78. B/C change gear removed to access  
keyed bushing.  
Remove the end cover and B/C change gear,  
clean the shaft and keyed bushing with mineral  
spirits and dry. Apply a thin coat of white lithium  
grease to the inside of the bushing shaft, then re-  
install it.  
6. Every few months, rotate by hand all gear-  
driven components a few times in several  
gear selections. This will keep bearings,  
bushings, gears, and shafts well lubricated  
and protected from corrosion—especially  
during winter months.  
Tumbler Gears

Angle the compound rest so you can access  
the cap screws shown in Figure 80. Loosen the  
outer cap screws, adjust the inner cap screw,  
then tighten the outer cap screws. Move the  
cross slide handwheel back and forth and adjust  
backlash until it is approximately 0.002"–0.003",  
as indicated on the graduated dial. Re-adjust the  
compound rest angle when you are finished.  
Backlash Adjustment  
Backlash is the amount of free play felt while  
changing rotation directions with the handwheel.  
This can be adjusted on the cross slide leadscrew.  
Before beginning any adjustment, make sure all  
associated components are cleaned and lubri-  
cated and locks are loose.  
Leadscrew End-Play  
Adjustment  
When adjusting backlash, tighten the components  
enough to remove backlash, but not so much that  
the components bind the leadscrew, making it  
hard to turn. Overtightening will cause excessive  
wear to the sliding block and leadscrew.  
After a long period of time, you may find that the  
leadscrew develops excessive end-play or lateral  
movement. T his lathe is designed so that end-  
play can be removed with a simple adjustment.  
Reducing backlash to less than 0.002" is  
impractical and can lead to accelerated wear  
in the leadscrew and other components.  
Avoid the temptation to overtighten the  
backlash nut or screw while adjusting.

Compound Slide  
Adjustment  
Gib Adjustment  
Fasteners  
The goal of adjusting the gib screws is to remove  
sloppiness or "play" from the ways without over-  
adjusting them to the point where they become  
stiff and difficult to move.  
In general, loose gibs cause poor finishes and  
tool chatter; however, over-tightened gibs cause  
premature wear and make it difficult to turn the  
handwheels.  
Figure 83. Compound slide gib adjustment hex  
nuts and cap screws.  
The gib adjustment process usually requires some  
trial-and-error. Repeat the process as necessary  
until you find the best balance between loose and  
stiff movement. Most machinists find that the ideal  
gib adjustment is one where a small amount of  
drag or resistance is present, yet the handwheels  
are still somewhat easy to move.  
3. Adjust all three cap screws in small and equal  
increments, then test movement of slide by  
rotating handwheel.  
Note: Turning cap screws clockwise tightens  
the gib, and turning them counterclockwise  
loosens the gib.  
Clean and lubricate the ways before beginning  
any adjustments. Refer to Lubrication on Page  
51 for instructions and lubricant specifications.  
4. When satisfied with gib adjustment, use hex  
wrench to prevent cap screws from moving,  
then retighten hex nuts to secure the settings.

Half Nut Adjustment  
Fuse Replacement  
The rigidity of the half nut engagement is adjusted  
by tightening or loosening the half nut gib screws.  
Adjust the half nut if it feels too loose or too tight  
when being engaged. Movement that is too stiff  
will accelerate wear. Movement that is too slop-  
py will produce inaccurate turning or threading  
results.  
This lathe features an on-board fuse designed  
to blow to protect sensitive electrical parts from  
thermal damage in the event of an overload. If the  
spindle does not start, replace the fuse.  
Replacement fuse part number: P0765166.

3. Unscrew rear brush cap and carefully remove  
brush from motor (see Figure 87).  
Brush Replacement  
This lathe is equipped with a universal motor  
that uses two carbon brushes to transmit elec-  
trical current inside the motor. These brushes  
are considered to be regular "wear items" or  
"consumables" that will need to be replaced dur-  
ing the life of the motor. The frequency of required  
replacement is often related to how much the  
motor is used and how hard it is pushed.

Tensioning Timing Belt  
Timing Belt Tension  
& Replacement  
1. DISCONNECT LATHE FROM POWER!  
2. Perform Steps 2–5 on Page 61 to remove  
components to access timing belt.  
The timing belt transfers power from the motor to  
the drive pulley (see Figure 89).  
3. Verify belt is centered on drive pulley (see  
Figure 89) by hand-rotating chuck. The belt  
should be seated so it does not contact head-  
stock or hang out at end of pulley.  
Because the molded teeth in the belt fit together  
with matching teeth in the pulley, the timing belt  
will not slip unless the belt teeth become overly  
worn or belt tension is overly loose.  
—If belt is not centered, loosen motor mount  
hex nuts (see Figure 89), re-adjust motor  
position and re-tension belt.  
An improperly tensioned timing belt will slip, which  
quickly causes it to become damaged and unsuit-  
able for further use. Therefore, it is essential to  
maintain belt tension properly to prevent slippage.  
4. Loosen both motor mount hex nuts.  
5. Ensure belt teeth are properly engaged in  
pulley notches, push down on motor with  
light/moderate pressure, and tighten motor  
mount hex nuts.  
Once a timing belt begins to slip, it must be  
replaced in order to regain proper power transmis-  
sion.  
Note: Position motor so you can access  
brush cap through hole in bed.
