G0555 and 6" Riser Issue / problem

[Ronbo]

Just for information, after mounting the 6" riser on my G0555, the blade tension would not tighten the blade. I changed the bottom spacer (moved it up) and finally was able to tension the blades. Today I called Grizzly and they told me that they know about the problem but have not written the fix into their manual. This is what they told me.

1. Position the top spacer ¼" below the threads
2. Position the bottom spacer ¼" below the top of the quick release bar
3. Tension the blade until there is only a 1/8" deflection when you push in the middle with the top bearing/blade guard moved up as far as possible.
4. This will be the setting for this blade.

This is the same info I got from grizzly a while back. I also posted the solution.
