-28- G1021Z 15" Planer
The thickness scale, located below the handwheel,
can be adjusted for accuracy. However, material
must be run through the machine to adjust the
thickness scale. Make certain you have followed the
directions in the Operations Section for Test
Running before attempting to make these adjust-
ments.
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 discrep-
ancy, loosen the scale adjustment screw
and correct the position. See Figure 34.
