THICKNESS SCALE ADJUSTMENT
See Figure 13.
Located on the right front of the planer, the thickness scale
shows the depth of the finished workpiece. Inaccurate cuts
can be prevented by routinely checking the alignment of the
thickness scale.
Table extensions must be level with planer table.
Plane a scrap piece of wood and measure the depth of
the finished piece.
If properly adjusted, the depth of the finished piece should
be the same as indicated on the thickness scale.
If out of adjustment, loosen the scale indicator screws
holding the scale indicator and adjust the thickness
indicator to the correct setting.
Retighten screws securely.
REPEAT-A-CUT™

Plane a scrap piece of wood and measure the depth of the
finished piece. If an adjustment is needed:

stop screw.
Using an accurate ruler or a scrap piece of wood, check
the measurement against the replane indicator setting.

lock nut and adjust the stop screw to the correct height.
Once the adjustment is made, retighten the lock nut and
stop screw securely.
