4. Press and hold the “CAL” button for 3 seconds until “0.00” appears.
Type 3 Calibration INC:
This method allows saving the original calibration from Type 1 and confirming the amount of material being removed per
pass.
1. Make one pass sanding your stock. Without changing the drum height press the “ABS/INC” button to read “0.00”. This
changes the readout from “ABS” to “INC” and zero’s the readout on top of the just sanded piece. Now the readout will show
the amount of stock removed per sanded pass in “INC” mode.
2. To change back to the original (Type 1) calibration press the “ABS/INC” button to change back to “ABS” mode.
NOTE:
When changing the abrasive wrap to a different grit the DRO must be recalibrated for the change of drum
diameter with the new grit abrasive!
NOTE:
When setting the depth of cut, never exceed the thickness of the grit for stock removal.
Depth of cut/Sanding
TIP:
With the sander turned OFF, place the stock to be sanded under the drum (wrapped with abrasive of choice)
and lower the drum until the drum contacts the workpiece and the drum can be rotated with hand pressure.
This is a good test for maximum stock removal as you are becoming familiar with setting the sander for
proper stock removal.
