Safety Instructions for Metal Cutting
Bandsaws
1. BLADE CONDITION. Do not operate with
dull, cracked or badly worn blade. Inspect
blades for cracks and missing teeth before
each use.
8. FIRE HAZARD. Use EXTREME CAUTION
if cutting magnesium. Using the wrong cut-
ting fluid will lead to a chip fire and possible
explosion.
2. HAND PLACEMENT. Never position fin-
gers or thumbs in line with the cut. Hands
could be crushed in vise or from falling
machine components.
9. CUTTING FLUID SAFETY. Always follow
manufacturer’s cutting-fluid safety instruc-
tions. Pay particular attention to contact,
contamination, inhalation, storage and dis-
posal warnings. Spilled cutting fluid invites
slipping hazards.
3. ENTANGLEMENT HAZARDS. Do not
operate this bandsaw without blade guard
in place. Loose clothing, jewelry, long hair
and work gloves can be drawn into working
parts.
10. ATTENTION TO WORK AREA. Never
leave a machine running and unattended.
Pay attention to the actions of others in the
area to avoid unintended accidents.
4. BLADE REPLACEMENT. When replacing
blades, make sure teeth face toward the
workpiece. Wear gloves to protect hands
and safety glasses to protect eyes.
11. MAINTENANCE/SERVICE. All inspec-
tions, adjustments, and maintenance are
to be done with the power OFF and the
plug pulled from the outlet. Wait for all
moving parts to come to a complete stop.
5. WORKPIECE HANDLING. Always support
the workpiece with table, vise, or some
type of support fixture. Flag long pieces
to avoid a tripping hazard. Never hold the
workpiece with your hands during a cut.
12. HEARING PROTECTION & HAZARDS.
Noise generated by blade and workpiece
vibration, material handling, and power
transmission can cause permanent hear-
ing loss over time and interfere with com-
munication and audible signals.
6. LOSS OF STABILITY. Unsupported
workpieces may jeopardize machine sta-
bility and cause the machine to tip and fall
which could cause serious injury.
13. HOT SURFACES. Contact with hot sur-
faces from machine components, ejec-
tions of hot chips, swarf and workpiece
can cause burns.
7. POWERINTERRUPTION. Unplugmachine
after power interruption. Machines without
magnetic switches can start up after power
is restored.
No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every shop environment is different. Like all
machines there is danger associated with the Model G9743. Accidents are frequently caused by
lack of familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use this machine with respect and caution to lessen
the possibility of operator injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, serious
personal injury may occur.

SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
Wiring for 220V
110/220V Operation
The Model G9743 can be rewired to operate on a
220V power source. The motor must be rewired
according to the wiring diagram on the motor
label. The wiring configuration can also be found
on the inside of the motor wire cover, as well as
on Page 39.
Serious personal injury could occur if you
connect the machine to the power source
before you have completed the set up pro-
cess. DO NOT connect the machine to the
power source until instructed to do so.
Plug Type
The Model G9743 comes prewired with a NEMA
5-15 plug. If you wish to rewire the motor to 220V
you will need the following 220V plug (see Figure
2 for an example):
Amperage Draw
The Model G9743 features 110/220V motor that is
prewired for 110V and draws the following amps
under maximum load:
220V Plug & Receptacle .............................. 6-15
Motor Draw at 110V...............................23 Amps
Motor Draw at 220V ........................... 11.5 Amps
Circuit Requirements
We recommend connecting this machine to a
dedicated circuit with a verified ground, using the
circuit breaker size given below. Never replace a
circuit breaker with one of higher amperage with-
out consulting a qualified electrician to ensure
compliance with wiring codes. If you are unsure
about the wiring codes in your area or you
plan to connect your machine to a shared cir-
cuit, you may create a fire hazard—consult a
qualified electrician to reduce this risk.

Grounding
Extension Cords
In the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock. The grounding
wire in the power cord must be properly connect-
ed to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise,
the outlet must be properly installed and ground-
ed. All electrical connections must be made in
accordance with local codes and ordinances.
We do not recommend the use of extension
cords. Instead, arrange the placement of your
equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate
the need for extension cords.
If you find it absolutely necessary to use an
extension cord at 110V with your machine:
•
Use at least a 10 gauge cord for 110V and 14
gauge cord for 220V that does not exceed 50
feet in length!
Electrocution or fire could
result if this machine is
not grounded correctly or
if your electrical configu-
ration does not comply
with local and state codes.
Ensure compliance by
checking with a qualified
electrician!
•
•
The extension cord must also contain a
ground wire and plug pin.
A qualified electrician MUST size cords over
50 feet long to prevent motor damage.
This machine must have a ground prong in
the plug to help ensure that it is grounded.
DO NOT remove ground prong from plug
to fit into a two-pronged outlet! If the plug
will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.

Clean Up
Site Considerations
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy
oil to protect them from corrosion during ship-
ment. Remove this protective coating with a sol-
vent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as
Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly,
some parts may need to be removed. For opti-
mum performance from your machine, make
sure you clean all moving parts or sliding
contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid chlo-
rine-based solvents, such as acetone or brake
parts cleaner, as they may damage painted sur-
faces should they come in contact. Always follow
the manufacturer’s instructions when using any
type of cleaning product.
Floor Load
The weight and footprint size for your machine
is located in the machine data sheet. Most floors
are suitable for your machine. Some residential
floors may require additional reinforcement to
support both the machine and operator.
Working Clearances
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of
material to be processed through each machine,
and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or
other machinery when establishing a location for
your new machine. See Figure 4 for the minimum
working clearances.
Gasoline and petroleum
products have low flash
points and could cause
an explosion or fire if
used to clean machinery.
DO NOT use gasoline or
petroleum products to
clean the machinery.
56"
171⁄4
"
Many of the solvents
commonly used to clean
machinery can be toxic
when inhaled or ingest-
ed. Lack of ventilation
while using these sol-
vents could cause seri-
ous personal health risks
or fire. Take precautions
from this hazard by only
using cleaning solvents
in a well ventilated area.
Figure 4. Minimum G9743 working clearances.
Unsupervised children and
visitors inside your shop
could cause serious per-
sonal injury to themselves.
Lock all entrances to the
shop when you are away and
DO NOT allow unsupervised
children or visitors in your
shop at any time!

SECTION 4: OPERATIONS
Operation Safety
Vise
The vise on the Model G9743 has a positive lock-
ing feature that improves productivity by open-
ing the vise jaws just enough to slide material
through.
Damage to your eyes, lungs, and ears could
result from using this machine without
proper protective gear. Always wear safety
glasses, a respirator, and hearing protection
when operating this machine.
To use the positive lock:
1. Raise the headstock above the workpiece
and lock in place.
2. Place the vise handle in the half open posi-
tion (45°). See Figure 12.
3. Place the workpiece between the jaws and
turn the handwheel until the rear jaw makes
contact with the workpiece.
Loose hair and cloth-
ing could get caught in
machinery and cause seri-
ous personal injury. Keep
loose clothing and long
hair away from moving
machinery.
4. Push the positive lock handle down to the
lock position (0°). As you do this you will
feel the handle tighten against the workpiece
(see Figure 12).
5. To loosen the workpiece, lift the vise handle
to the fully open position (90°).
6. Slide the stock to the workstop for your next
cut. The vise position will not change as long
as you don't change the position of the vise
jaws with the handwheel.
NOTICE
If you have never used this type of machine
or equipment before, WE STRONGLY REC-
OMMEND that you read books, trade maga-
zines, or get formal training before begin-
ning any projects. Regardless of the con-
tent in this section, Grizzly Industrial will

To adjust the angle on the vise:
Blade Speed
1. Loosen the lock nut with a 3⁄4" hex wrench.
The Model G9743 has these three blade speeds:
148, 216, and 282 FPM.
2. Use the scale as a guide to set your angle or
use a machinist square to square the vise to
the blade as shown in Figure 13.
3. Tighten the lock nut.
NOTICE
DO NOT change speeds when the motor is
running. Wait for the bandsaw to come to a
complete stop or you will damage the gears
and you will void your warranty.
To change blade speeds:
1. TURN THE BANDSAW OFF AND ALLOW IT
TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP.
2. Determine the best speed for your cut. The
table in Figure 15 is provided as a rough
guideline. Material thickness, type of blade
used and if cutting fluid is used, will factor
into the correct speed selection. As a general
rule, add 15% when using cutting fluid.

Cutting Fluid System
This bandsaw has a built-in cutting fluid system
that extends the life of your bandsaw blades
by lowering the temperature of the blade and
workpiece and washing away chips.
See Cutting Fluid on Page 22 for more informa-
tion.
To use the cutting fluid system:
1. Thoroughly clean and remove any foreign
material that may have fallen inside the res-
ervoir during shipping.
2. Place the filter screen and drain tube in the
reservoir as shown in Figure 17 .
Figure 16. Speed control knob.
3. Fill the reservoir to the "high" mark with your
chosen cutting fluid solution.
Blade Selection
The Model G9743 uses 1041⁄2 x 1" bandsaw
blades.

4. Adjust the valve on the coolant hose to
control the flow of coolant (see Figure 18).
Make sure that the pressure is not so high
that coolant spills on the floor and creates a
slipping hazard.
Cutting Fluid
While simple in concept and function, many
issues must be taken into account to find and use
the correct cutting fluid. Always follow all product
warnings and contact the fluid manufacturer for
unanswered questions.
Coolant Control Valve
Use the selections below to choose the appro-
priate cutting fluids:
•
For cutting low alloy, low carbon, and gen-
eral-purpose category metals with a bi-metal
blade—use a water soluble cutting fluid.
Fluid Nozzles
•
For cutting stainless steels, high carbon, and
high alloy metals, brass, copper and mild
steels—use "Neat Cutting Oil" (commonly
undiluted mineral oils) that have extreme
pressure additives (EP additives).

ing your cut.
Remember: Too much flow at the cutting fluid
nozzle will make a mess and can make the work
area unsafe; and not enough fluid at the cut will
heat the blade, causing the blade teeth to load up
and break.
NOTICE
Keep the tray chip screen clear so coolant
can recycle to the pump reservoir. NEVER
operate the pump with the reservoir below
the low mark or you will over-heat the pump
and void your warranty!

Feed Rate
Feed Rate Dial
The speed at which the saw blade will cut through
a workpiece is controlled by blade type, feed rate,
and feed pressure.
ON/OFF Valve
Note: If a lubricant is used on the cut, the feed
rate can be increased by approximately 15%.
To set the feed rate:
1. Raise the headstock to the maximum height
to remove spring tension. Close the ON/OFF
valve to lock the headstock in place.
Figure 21. Feed rate dial.
5. With the correct saw blade and blade speed
selected, turn the saw and lubricant pump
ON.
2. Using a 14mm wrench, adjust the feed
pressure tension spring. Tighten enough to
remove play but not enough to apply tension
to the spring (see Figure 20).
6. Slowly rotate the feed rate dial clockwise to a
slow feed rate until the saw begins to cut the
workpiece (see Figure 21).
Note: This spring adjustment is an initial set-
ting. Depending on cutting circumstances,
you will have to fine-tune the feed pressure
with this adjustment. Increasing the spring
tension will reduce the feed pressure.
7. Observe the chips that exit the cut, and
increase or decrease the feed rate according
to the chip characteristics (see Figure 22).
Chips are width

Operation Tips
The following tips will help you safely and effec-
tively operate your bandsaw, and help you get the
maximum life out of your saw blades.
Tips for horizontal cutting:
•
Use the work stop to quickly and accurately
cut multiple pieces of stock to the same
length.
Work Stop
•
Clamp the material firmly in the vise jaws to
ensure a straight cut through the material
and use the positive lock to speed produc-
tion.
Figure 24. Proper starting position.
•
•
Let the blade reach full speed before engag-
ing the workpiece. Never start a cut with the
blade in contact with the workpiece (see
Figure 24).
Chips should be curled and silvery. If the
chips are thin and powder like, increase your
feed rate.
•
•
Burned chips indicate a need to reduce your
blade speed.
Wait until the blade has completely stopped
before removing the workpiece from the vise,
and avoid touching the cut end—it could be
very hot!
•
•
•
Support long pieces so they won't fall when
cut, and flag the end to alert passers-by of
potential danger.
Adjust the blade guides as close as possible
to the workpiece to minimize side-to-side
blade movement.
Use coolant when possible to increase blade
life.

and close the feed rate ON/OFF valve.
—If the blade tracks along the shoulder of
the wheel (without rubbing), the blade is
tracking properly and this adjustment is
completed.
3. Remove both blade guide assemblies.
4. Open the wheel access cover.
—If the blade drifts away from the shoulder
of the wheel or hits the shoulder, repeat
Steps 4-7.
5. Loosen, but do not remove the lower cap
screw in the blade wheel tilting mechanism
(Figure 37).
10. Replace the blade guard and blade guide
assemblies.
11. Adjust the blade guides as needed. Refer to
Blade Guide Bearings on Page 35.

Blade Tension
Squaring the Blade
Proper blade tension is essential to long blade
life, straight cuts, and efficient cutting. The Model
G9743 features a blade tension indicator to assist
you with blade tensioning.
It is always a good idea during the life of your saw
to check and adjust this setting. This adjustment
will improve your cutting results and extend the
life of your blade.
Two major signs that you do not have proper
blade tension are: 1) the blade stalls in the cut and
slips on the wheels, and 2) the blade frequently
breaks from being too tight.
To square the blade to the bed of the table:
1. UNPLUG THE BANDSAW!
2. Lower the head of the bandsaw all the way
until it contacts the horizontal stop.
To tension the blade on the bandsaw:
1. Make sure the blade is tracking properly.
2. UNPLUG THE BANDSAW!
3. Place a square on the table bed and against
the edge of the blade (Figure 38), and check
different points along the length of the table
between the blade guides.
3. Slide the blade guides as far apart as they
will go, then tighten them down again.
4. Loosen the cap screw shown in Figure 38,
and rotate the blade guide until the blade
is vertical to the bed, then tighten the cap
screws.
4. Turn the tension handle clockwise to tighten
the blade.
5. Tighten the blade until the tension indicator
moves into the green or center section of the
indicator.
Note: Both blade guides can be adjusted to
achieve the results you want.
6. To fine tune blade tension, use a blade
tensioning gauge, like the one found in
SECTION 5: ACCESSORIES on Page 26.
Please follow the instructions included with
your gauge and the blade manufacturer's
recommendations on blade tension.

To adjust the blade guide bearings:
Blade Guide
Bearings
1. UNPLUG THE BANDSAW!
2. Raise the bandsaw to the highest position
and close the feed rate ON/OFF valve.
The blade guide bearings come adjusted from the
factory and the need for adjustment should rarely
occur. Uneven blade wear and crooked cuts
may be the result of improper adjustment. Each
bearing assembly has an eccentric bushing that
allows the distance between the blade and bear-
ings to be adjusted. The bearings are secured in
place by a hex nut and a lock washer as shown
in Figure 39.
3. Loosen the hex nut that secures the eccentric
bushing.
4. Adjust the eccentric bushing position to
achieve the desired clearance. The bearing
and blade should make light contact or have
a clearance of 0.001"-0.002".
5. Tighten the nut to lock the eccentric bushing
and bearing in position.
Eccentric Bushing
Hex Nut
6. Adjust the other eccentric blade guide bear-
ing in the same manner. The backing bear-
ing is not adjustable and will make light con-
tact with the blade.
7. Adjust the carbide blade guides so they make
the same contact with the blade as the bear-
ings.
