Grizzly G0569 Bandsaw

Grizzly G0569 is a 7.5hp resaw monster.

Do not cut metal with this tool. This bandsaw is to be used for wood only, and only for resawing or straight cuts. No curves.

Members must complete the Woodshop Safety Class before using this tool

The brake pedal is the off switch. Push hard.

No adjustments allowed, except for Fence & Cutting height.

This saw takes a 180" blade. We typically equip it with a 1" 3tpi Timber Wolf resaw blade.

No blade changes - call a steward or report via red QR code.
Do not adjust bearings or tension. Do not release tension.
If you see a problem that you think needs these adjustments, report using any red QR code.

If you are cutting logs, use a fixture. You will have to build your own. It is a good idea to run a metal detector across logs.

Maximum cutting height is 16¼", maximum cutting width is 24½"

The cast-iron fence isn't super tall. We keep sacrificial MDF fences around to help with resawing taller material.
