Scale Calibration

 

The scale can be adjusted for accuracy. The machine will

 

need to be run to make proper adjustments.

Figure 33. Depth scale adjustment screws.

 

To calibrate the scale, do these steps:

 

1.Set the table to the approximate thickness of your test lumber. Measure the lumber with calipers to determine its exact thickness.

2.Move the table to 1⁄16" under the thickness of your lumber and feed your test board through the planer.

3.Turn the handwheel one full rotation and run the board through once more. Turn the board over and repeat.

4.Re-measure the board and compare your results with the scale. If there is a discrepancy, loosen the screws (see Figure 33) and adjust as necessary.
