What the G0833P was
The G0833P was a 10 in, 2 HP, 230V hybrid table saw from Grizzly's Polar Bear series. A hybrid sits between a contractor saw and a cabinet saw: it has an enclosed or semi-enclosed base and a motor of around 2 HP, but it is lighter and cheaper than a full cabinet saw. Cast-iron trunnions made this one a step up from the contractor class.
Is it really discontinued?
Yes. Grizzly still has a page for the G0833P on grizzly.com, but the page says the item is discontinued and no longer available for sale. Grizzly lists the G0833P as discontinued. Its job in the lineup has been split between two current saws: one with an enclosed cabinet and one with an open stand.

Manuals and parts for a discontinued model
Grizzly generally leaves the manual and parts diagrams for discontinued models on the product page, and many common wear parts stay available for years after a model leaves the catalog. That is worth checking before you buy a used G0833P: open the G0833P page on grizzly.com, download the manual and the parts list, and compare the parts you are likely to need (belts, brushes, switches, bearings) against what is still listed. Check the product page for Polar Bear series parts before you buy a used saw, because model-specific parts are the first to disappear.
Used-market buying checklist
A used hybrid is mostly a question of how it was set up and maintained. The motor and the cast iron do not wear out quickly, but alignment problems, rust and electrical modifications do.
- Confirm the motor voltage. The G0833P was a 230V saw, so you need a 240V circuit or a rewire, which changes the cost.
- Check the trunnions and the tilt mechanism for binding, slop and rust.
- Look at the table for rust and flatness, and check the extension wings.
- Measure the fence for parallelism with the miter slot and look for bends.
- Check the belt and the pulleys for wear and alignment.
- Test the switch, the arbor lock and the blade-height handwheel.
- Ask whether the original guard, riving knife and splitter are present.
- Plan for a dust port: a 4 in port at the base is the usual setup and the saw may need a modified shroud.
If you would rather buy new
The Grizzly button on the card above goes to the current model, and the Amazon button below goes to the closest Amazon-sold machine in the same class. They are different machines, so compare the specification sheets before treating them as equivalents. If you want a hybrid delivered through Amazon, the nearest alternative is another brand's 10 in hybrid.
