Thanks for letting me know on the taper attachment! Glad you got your lathe, I remember when I first got mine, for the price these lathes are great! Again like I said in another post be CAREFUL around the paint, when doing the clean up! Mine was real fresh, and I took a little off, on the tread shift levers in front! I was using petrolem based cleaner, I see in the manual Grizzly lists the orenge based cleaner, probably close to like ZEP ID Orange?

One more thing, I was wondering if anyone has found a good touch up paint for these machines? I am almost completely color blind, so it's hard for me to match colors! Its a real pain, The op manual lists epoxy paint, on these for paint, My GF says the krylon almond matches pretty good, but who would I be to tell if it does! If it does match, I was kind of running it thru my head, if the appliance, almond epoxy might also be close, you also can get that, it in the small brush type touch up bottles? Thanks
Bob,
I had some paint that came off during set up and cleaning as well. Someone (can't remember who) advised that Grizzly will send OEM paint if requested. I did so and had the green in two days. The almond/beige is on backorder but will ship when it comes in stock. Oh, and no charge for the paint or shipping. Fantastic service after the sale!
I couldn't be more pleased with their customer service. I wish all companies were like that.
