SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
110/220V Operation

Grounding

The Model G1183/1276 is prewired for 110V, single phase operation. Figure 1 depicts the typical
grounded receptacle which should be used. This
machine can be rewired to operate at 220V, however a different plug will need to be installed.
Figure 2 shows a typical 220V plug. A wiring diagram is provided at the back of the manual to
show the two wiring configurations.

In the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance to disperse electric current. This tool is equipped with a power cord having an equipment-grounding conductor. See
Figure 1. The outlet must be properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.

This equipment must be grounded. Verify
that any existing electrical outlet and circuit
you intend to plug into is actually grounded. If it is not, it will be necessary to run a
separate 12 A.W.G. copper grounding wire
from the outlet to a known ground. Under
no circumstances should the grounding pin
from any three-pronged plug be removed.
Serious injury may occur.

Figure 1. 110V Grounded Plug Configuration.

Fusing
The 1 HP motor will draw 12 amps at 110V and 6
amps at 220V. A 15-amp fuse or circuit breaker
should be used when fusing this combination
sander. Circuits rated any higher are not adequate to protect the motor from power surges. If
you operate this sander on any circuit that is
already close to capacity, it might trip the breaker
or blow the fuse. However, if an unusual load
does not exist, and the circuit protection is still
activated, you should have the circuit inspected
by a qualified electrician.

Extension Cords

Wiring Diagram

If you find it necessary to use an extension cord
with the Model G1183/1276, make sure the cord
is rated Hard Service (grade S) or better. Refer to
the chart in the standard safety instructions to
determine the minimum gauge for the extension
cord. The extension cord must also contain a
ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or
replace extension cords when they become worn
or damaged.

Your G1183/1276 machine comes pre-wired for
110 volt operation. A wiring diagram is provided
at the back of this manual should it be necessary
to repair or revise the wiring. Always utilize a
qualified electrician when doing any electrical
work on this equipment.

We have covered some basic electrical
requirements for the safe operation of your
Sander. These requirements are not necessarily comprehensive. You must be sure
that your particular electrical configuration
complies with local and state codes.
Ensure compliance by checking with your
local municipality or a licensed electrician.

Unpacking

Piece Inventory

The Combination Sander is shipped from the factory in a carefully packed carton. If you find the
machine to be damaged after you’ve signed for
delivery and the truck and driver are already
gone, you will need to file a freight claim with the
carrier. Save the containers and all packing materials for inspection by the carrier or their agent.
Without the packing materials, filing a freight
claim can be difficult. If you need advice regarding this situation, please call us.

With all the parts removed from the container,
you should have components as listed below and
shown in Figure 3:

The G1183/1276 is a fairly heavy machine
(155 lbs.). DO NOT over-exert yourself while
unpacking or moving your machine – get
assistance. In the event that your Combination

NOTICE
Ensure that the Model G1183/G1276 is
located on a flat, level surface. This will
maximize the stability of the machine and
ensure that adjustments are accurate. For
conditions where permanent mounting is
possible, we recommend bolting the
Combination Sander to your bench top or
work table. This type of mounting will minimize vibration and provide a more stable
work environment.

G1183/1276 Combination Sander

Clean Up
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy
oil to protect it from corrosion during shipment.
Remove this protective coating with a solvent
cleaner or citrus-based degreaser. Avoid chlorine-based solvents as they may damage painted
surfaces should they come in contact. Always follow the usage instructions on the product you
choose for clean up.

Many of the solvents commonly used to
clean machinery can be highly flammable,
and toxic when inhaled or ingested. Always
work in well-ventilated areas far from
potential ignition sources when dealing
with solvents. Use care when disposing of
waste rags and towels to be sure they do
not create fire or environmental hazards.
Keep children and animals safely away
when cleaning and assembling this
machine.

Site Considerations
BENCH LOAD
The G1183/1276 Combination Sander represents a moderately large weight load in a small
footprint. Most commercial or home shop benches should be sufficient to carry the weight of the
machine. If you question the strength of your
workbench, you can opt to reinforce it, or consider placing the sander on a freestanding bench
such as Shop Fox® Deluxe Tool Table.

WORKING CLEARANCES
Working clearances can be thought of as the distances between machines and obstacles that
allow safe operation of every machine without
limitation. Consider existing and anticipated
machine needs, size of material to be processed
through each machine, and space for auxiliary
stands and/or work tables. Also consider the relative position of each machine to one another for
efficient material handling. Be sure to allow yourself sufficient room to safely run your machines in
any foreseeable operation.

LIGHTING AND OUTLETS
Do not use gasoline or other petroleumbased solvents to remove this protective
coating. These products generally have low
flash points which makes them extremely
flammable. A risk of explosion and burning
exists if these products are used. Serious
personal injury may occur.

All die-cut metal parts have a sharp edge
(called “flashing”) on them after they are
formed. This is generally removed at the
factory. Sometimes a bit of flashing might
escape inspection, and the sharp edge may
cause cuts or lacerations when handled.
Please examine the edges of all die-cut
metal parts and file or sand the edge to
remove the flashing before handling.

G1183/1276 Combination Sander

Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate
shadow and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits
should be dedicated or large enough to handle
combined motor amp loads. Outlets should be
located near each machine so power or extension cords are not obstructing high-traffic areas.
Be sure to observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.

Make your shop “child safe”. Ensure that
your workplace is inaccessible to youngsters by closing and locking all entrances
when you are away. Never allow visitors in
your shop when assembling, adjusting or
operating equipment.

SECTION 4: ASSEMBLY
Assembly Basics
Most of your Combination Sander has been
assembled at the factory. There are several simple steps to follow to complete the assembly.
A few common tools will be required for assembly: Screwdrivers - medium and large straight
blade or Phillips®, Allen® wrenches - 2mm, 3mm,
6mm and open end wrenches - 8mm and 10mm.

Belt Table
The belt table adjusts to allow you to sand your
work at angles from -30° up to 45°. To make
assembly easier, we recommend you mount the
Combination Sander on a table or bench before
assembling. Four bolt holes are included on the
sander’s base for mounting.

Figure 4. Attaching belt table.

To attach the belt table:
1. Swing the belt assembly to its vertical position by loosening the 6mm Allen® capscrew
shown in Figure 4. Tighten capscrew to
hold the belt assembly in this position.
2. Remove the lock handle assembly and the
threaded stud from the belt housing using a
large flat bladed screwdriver.
3. Line up the belt table trunnion with the slot
in the belt assembly bracket. Reinstall the
threaded stud, then install the flat washer,
toothed nut, lock handle, lock washer and
bolt, as shown in Figure 5. Make sure the
handle is installed so the table can be loosened and tightened without interfering with
other components. The belt table’s tight fit
is deliberate. Placing the table in position is
easier if you swing the belt table so the 45°
positive stop bolt is located over the gap in
the motor casting cover.

Disc Table

Belt Lever

The disc table adjusts to allow you to sand your
work at angles from -20° up to 45°. To install the
disc table:

The belt lever is used for releasing the tension on
the idler pulley for belt installation. To attach the
belt lever:

1. Loosen the two star knobs at either end of
the disc table base until they reach the
ends of their threaded rods.

1.

Thread the belt lever onto the loosen/tighten
collar and secure with the checknut. See
Figure 7.

2. Move the sliding rails and the washers to
allow enough room for the table to be
installed.

DO NOT attempt to operate this machine
before completing the assembly and adjustment instructions. Be sure that the switch is
off and the cord is disconnected from the
power source at all times until assembly
and adjustment are complete and you have
reviewed all safety guidelines. Serious
injury could occur.

NOTICE
After all parts have been assembled, double-check the entire machine to make sure
all fasteners are tight.

SECTION 5: ADJUSTMENTS
Proper adjustment of the Combination Sander is
essential to ensure its optimum performance. The
adjustments covered in this section are easily
accomplished.

Tables
Tables should be square in both planes to execute precise work. Procedures for accomplishing
this are described below.
1. Adjust the miter gauge to 90°. You can use
it as a reference point from which to make
other adjustments.
2. Place the miter gauge in the table slot and,
with a high-quality machinist’s or combination square against the face of the miter
gauge, check the tables for squareness
against the sanding surfaces. See Figures
8 and 9.
3. If either table is out of square, loosen the
bolts that attach the table to the trunnion
and adjust the table until it is square to the
disc or belt. Tighten the table and reinspect results.

Figure 9. Squaring disc table.

Positive Stops
Positive stops are used to move the tables to different positions quickly, without measurement.
The belt table has two positive stops (one at 45°
and one at 90°) and the disc table has one (at
90°).
To Adjust the Belt Table Positive Stops:
1. Loosen the lock handle.
2. Flip block into the 90° position.
3. Use a square to verify the accuracy to the
stop.
4. If the stop is engaged and the table isn’t
quite perpendicular to the belt, adjust the
stop by turning the setscrew in or out as
needed. See Figure 10.
5. Flip the block back to its former position,
then back to 90° to double-check accuracy.

Figure 8. Squaring belt table.
-12-

G1183/1276 Combination Sander

6. Repeat this procedure with the 45° stop.
You’ll need a known 45° angle, such as a
speed square or the head of a combination
square to check accuracy.

Belt Platen
The belt platen should be adjusted out far enough
so it is flush with, or slightly higher than the upper
roller. The rollers are slightly crowned, that is they
are higher in the center than at the edges. This
crowning helps the belt to stay centralized on the
rollers. The adjustment of the platen to the roller
should be done at the high point, or center, of the
roller.
1. Loosen the cap screw on the side of the
belt housing with a 6mm Allen® wrench.
This frees the in and out movement of the
belt platen

Figure 10. Adjusting belt table stops.
To Adjust the Disc Table Positive Stops:
1. Loosen both star knobs.
2. Flip block over table.
3. Loosen check nut.
4. Place accurate square on table and against
disc as shown in Figure 11.

2. Use a straightedge positioned in the center
of the platen which extends over the upper
roller. Adjust the belt platen in and out until
the straightedge is just barely lifted off of
the idler roller.
3. Tighten cap screw.
See the section on Belt Installation/Tracking for
more information on adjusting the rollers for proper tracking.

5. Make fine adjustments by turning the
setscrew in or out. Secure the checknut.

DO NOT attempt to operate this machine
before completing the assembly and adjustment instructions. Be sure that the switch is
off and the cord is disconnected from the
power source at all times until assembly
and adjustment are complete and you have
reviewed all safety guidelines. Serious
injury could occur.

Belt Arm Movement

1.

Loosen the two screws (A and B) shown in
Figure 12. These screws hold the guard in
place.

The 6" x 48" Belt Arm can be locked at any angle
between horizontal and vertical for a variety of
sanding applications.

2.

Adjust the two vertically-aligned screws (C
and D in Figure 12) so the guard is upright
and not touching the disc. The top screw
moves the guard toward the disc and the
bottom screw moves it away from the disc.

1. Loosen the locking bolt as shown in Figure
13.

The setscrew/checknut combination shown in
Figure 13 acts as a stop for the rotation of the belt
arm. If it ever becomes necessary to remove the
belt arm from the motor, be sure to remove this
setscrew to allow the arm housing to be slipped
of the motor mounting.

G1183/1276 Combination Sander

Belt Installation
The 6'' x 48'' sanding belt is easily installed. First
remove the belt guard by loosening the four combination-head screws. Pull down on the spring
loaded belt tensioning lever which lowers the
upper roller and allows the belt to be slid off of the
two rollers. See Figure 14.

Belt Tracking
Tracking adjustment is conducted as follows:
1. Insure that the upper roller is parallel to the
platen (there is no adjustment for the lower
roller). This adjustment is easier to accomplish with the belt removed. Remember that
the roller is crowned, and a rough alignment of the roller to the platen was already
described in the section entitled Belt
Platen. To determine parallelism for proper
tracking, measure at a point approximately
.5'' from the ends of the roller. Use a
straight edge on top of the platen and
extend it over the roller. See Figure 15.

Figure 14. Installing sanding belt.

The new belt will have a rotation arrow on the
backing. Make certain the belt is placed onto the
rollers in the proper orientation. There is a rotation label on the housing indicating the direction.
Pull the lever down and slide the new belt onto
the rollers and center it.

Figure 15. Measuring platen to roller parallelism.
2. You should see a gap between the straight
edge and roller. Measure this with a feeler
gauge.
3. Repeat step 1 and 2 with the straight edge
positioned at the opposite edge of the platen.
4. The difference in the measurements is the
amount of "twist" in the belt. Reduce the
twist by adjusting one of the two tracking
knobs. See Figure 16. If the "out-board"
end (or the end furthest from the tracking
adjustment side) of the roller measures
greater than the "in-board" side, tighten the
right hand tracking knob.

G1183/1276 Combination Sander

-15-

5. With the straightedge along the edge which
is low, loosen the knurled locking nut and
turn the tracking knob while watching the
gap change between the straight edge and
the roller. Make small changes and check
for a change in gap on the opposite side.
6. When the gap has been equalized between
the two sides, make sure the center of the
roller, or the crown, is still approximately
flush or just slightly above the platen surface. Lock the adjustment knobs with the
locking knobs.
7. Reinstall the belt. Move the belt by hand
(DO NOT turn on the power). If the belt
tracks to one side or the other, adjust the
idler roller slightly by backing off the locking
knobs and turning the knurled adjustment
screws in or out. See Figure 16. Make very
small adjustments and move the belt by
hand for a few revolutions to test the result.
Keep readjusting until you are satisfied the
belt is tracking properly when moved by
hand.

9. Test the tracking by cycling the machine on
and off very quickly. See if the belt stays
centered during this test cycle. If the belt
doesn’t remain centered on the rollers, it
must be adjusted further.

Moving sanding discs and belts are dangerously abrasive. Use extreme caution when
working near sanding surfaces. Failure to
exercise care while sanding could result in
severe injury.

8. Lock the adjustment in place by tightening
the knurled lock knobs on both adjusters.

SECTION 6: OPERATIONS
The aluminum disc accepts 12" diameter cloth or
paper-backed PSA sanding discs. The belt
sander requires a 6" x 48" sanding belt. For disc
or belt sanding, we recommend a 100-grit (medium) material for general sanding chores, a 60-grit
(coarse) material for rough work, and a 150-grit
(fine) surface for finish work. See the current
Grizzly catalog for prices and ordering information.
Please review all safety rules for sanders and all
power tools before attempting operation. The
hints listed below are also worth your consideration:
1. When using the table for beveled sanding
operations, try to keep an open table angle
(90˚ or more). This eliminates the risk of
getting the workpiece jammed between the
disc (or vertical belt) and the table.
2. The surface feet per minute of the spinning
disc increases as you move from the center
to the rim.

Table Tilt
The belt table can be adjusted from -30˚ to 45˚
and the disc table can go from -20˚ to 45˚ relative
to the plane of the sanding surface. Both tables
have positive stop blocks which will quickly position the table at the 90˚ and 45˚ angles. To adjust
the tilt it is sometimes necessary to swing the
stop block out of the way, move the table, swing
the block back in, then contact the stop block. If
angles other than the preset are desired, swing
the stop out of the way and use the angle scale or
a bevel gauge to set to the position needed. Lock
the handle (on the belt table) or the star knob (on
the disc table) firmly in position.
Whenever possible, sand with an open angle
where there is plenty of clearance between the
belt and the table. This will avoid getting the workpiece trapped between the sanding surface and
the table.

3. When belt sanding, sand with the grain of
the wood.
4. Do not over-sand soft woods such as bass
wood or pine.
5. Choose the correct sanding grit for the job.
6. Do not use the sander as a replacement for
a bandsaw or a planer. It is designed for finish work, not rough dimensioning.
7. Keep your workpiece moving across the
face of the disc or belt to prevent grooves
or ruts in the surface you’re sanding.

G1183/1276 Combination Sander

-17-

Disc Sanding
1.

Loosen table lock knob and tilt work table to
desired angle. Tighten lock knob.

2.

Use miter gauge to guide work into position.

3.

Ease workpiece into the half of the disc that
spins down toward the table. See Figure 17.

Surface Sanding
To remove a large amount of material quickly
from a large surface area, use the belt arm in its
horizontal position.
1. Turn the sander on and let it reach its full
working speed.
2. Place the workpiece flat on the belt. Be
sure to hold the work securely with both
hands. Place one hand at the end of the
workpiece to feed it against the rotation of
the belt. Place the other hand lightly on top
of the workpiece to ensure adequate stock
removal. See Figure 18.

Operating this equipment has the potential
to propel debris into the air which can
cause eye injury. Always wear safety glasses or goggles when operating equipment.

G1183/1276 Combination Sander

Bevel Sanding

Miter Sanding

When bevel sanding, be sure to re-position the
work table so it is at a maximum of 1/16" away from
the disc or belt.

The most efficient way to get a perfect miter is to
cut the workpiece slightly long and sand it to the
desired dimension. Miter sanding can be done on
either the belt or the disc.

1. Hold workpiece against miter gauge to
keep piece square to the disc or belt.
2. Move workpiece against sanding surface
width to ensure even abrasion. Use even,
but firm, pressure.
3. When using the belt arm for bevel sanding,
you will have greater control over your work
if you tilt the belt arm and maintain the table
at level. See Figure 19.

1. Loosen the knob on the miter gauge and
adjust the angle to the desired point.
Tighten the knob.
2. Slide the miter gauge into its slot and use it
to hold your workpiece in position. The
miter gauge can be used in either direction
in the slot to achieve the proper relation of
the workpiece to the disc.
3. With light, but firm pressure, push the workpiece slowly into the downspin side of the
rotating disc. See Figure 20.

SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE
General

Tables

The Combination Sander is ruggedly constructed
to provide years of dependable service. To
ensure that you enjoy maximum performance
and longevity, we suggest the following routine
maintenance:

The tables and other non-painted surfaces on the
Model G1183 and G1276 should be protected
against rust and pitting. Wiping the sander clean
after every use ensures that moisture from wood
dust isn’t allowed to trap moisture against bare
metal surfaces.

1. Check all fasteners for tightness before
each use. Tighten when necessary.
2. Keep the Combination Sander clean for
maximum efficiency and heat dissipation.
Wipe away accumulated sanding dust and
grime after each use.
3. Inspect sanding disc and belt for excessive
wear and damage. Replace if necessary.

Some woodworkers recommend using automotive paste wax on exposed steel and cast iron
surfaces. The wax provides a layer of protection,
as well as reducing friction between lumber and
the table, making cuts faster and smoother. Avoid
waxes that contain silicone or other synthetic
ingredients. These materials can find their way
into lumber that’s being worked, and can make
staining and finishing difficult. If you use paste
wax, make sure that it’s 100% Carnauba wax.

4. Inspect switches and cord periodically for
wear or damage. Replace if necessary.
5. Bearings are sealed and permanently lubricated, so no lubrication is needed. Check
for wear periodically and replace when
worn. Increased motor noise and vibration
are both indicators of bearing wear.
6. Inspect roller drive bearings for wear.
Replace if needed.

DO NOT make adjustments or attempt any
maintenance procedures while this
machine is running. Ensure that the switch
is off, power is disconnected and all moving parts have stopped before making
adjustments. Failure to do so could result
in serious operator injury.
