Calibrating Digital Sensor & Readout

The digital readout on the control panel displays the depth of cut using the sensor located on the back of the jointer. The sensor requires a 1.5V type 357/303 silver oxide button cell battery and the display requires two AAA batteries. The 1.5 V battery is preinstalled at the factory but the AAA battery must be installed (refer to Page 16, for installation instructions). To conserve the batter- ies, turn the displays OFF when not in use.

To calibrate the sensor and display:

1.Follow Steps 1-5on Page 38 for calibrating the infeed table.

2.Turn ON the rear sensor, then turn ON the front digital readout.

3.Press the ZERO buttons on the sensor and front display, as shown in Figures 58 & 59.

Cutterhead Guard

The cutterhead guard comes pre-installed for shipping, but it may need to be adjusted if the guard does not quickly snap back against the fence when pulled out and let go.

To adjust the cutterhead guard:

1.Loosen the shaft lock (Figure 60) and remove the cutterhead guard.

2.Wind the tang on the torsion spring clockwise a quarter turn, and slide the guard shaft into the casting so the spring tang points toward the main table but does not overlap it, as shown in Figure 60.

3.Test the guard by pulling it back and letting go.

—The guard should quickly snap back over the cutterhead without dragging across the table. If it does, tighten the shaft lock.

—If the guard drags across the table, raise it until it won't drag, then tighten the shaft lock.

—If the guard does not snap back, remove it and repeat Steps 1 & 2, increasing the spring tension as needed.
