NOTE: 

Drawing pencil marks across the width of the top of the  

                   calibrating board in several locations can make it easier  
                   to determine when the entire surface has been planned.  

 

7. Measure the thickness of the calibrating board with a caliper.   

 
8. Loosen the two screws of the Thickness Scale pointer and adjust the 

pointer  (Fig.  7)  until  it  corresponds  to  the  measured  thickness  and 
tighten the screws.   

 

Thickness Gauge 
 

The top of the planer is a thickness gauge.  Material thickness can be 
quickly  identified  by  placing  it  on  edge  into  the  various  gauges  and 
reading the corresponding measurement (Fig. 8).
