Calibrating the Thickness Scale
FIGURE 8: THICKNESS SCALE CALIBRATION
NOTICE!
The following procedures describe the
use of a “calibrating board”. It is a piece of
hardwood which has been surfaced on one side with
a jointer, drum sander or wide belt sander.
1. With the planer OFF, the cutter head not rotating and power disconnected, place the Calibrating Board
on the table, with the previously machined (flat) face “down”, and slide under the cutterhead.
2. Use the Table Height Adjustment handle (Fig. 8, A) to raise the table until the infeed roller is
approximately 1/16” above the calibrating board.
3. Remove the calibrating board from the planer.
4. Connect power to the planer and turn ON.
5. Turn the height adjustment handle clockwise, one complete revolution, to lower the carriage and run the
calibrating board (previously machined face “down”) through the planer. Lock (“down” position) the
carriage lock.
6. Repeat Step 5 until the planer removes the entire top surface of the calibrating board. NOTICE!
Drawing pencil marks across the width of the top of the calibrating board in several locations can make
it easier to determine when the entire surface has been planned.
7. Measure the thickness of the calibrating board with a caliper.
8. Loosen the two screws of the Thickness Scale pointer and adjust the pointer (Fig. 8, B) until it
corresponds to the measured thickness and tighten the screws.
