Thickness Scale

The thickness scale, located below the handwheel, can be adjusted for accuracy. However, the machine must be operated to adjust the thick- ness scale. Follow the directions in the Operations Section for test running before attempting to make these adjustments.

TO ADJUST THE SCALE:

1.Adjust the table height 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 half 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 discrepan- cy, loosen the scale adjustment screw and correct the position. See Figure 33.
