Button Reference and Use
It is helpful to familiarize these buttons and their purpose with the Wixey
DRO
Calibration
There are three typical variations of calibration. The first variation (Type 1)
is for the DRO to show the sanded thickness of
the material. The second variation (Type 2) is to show how much stock is
being removed with each pass of the sander.
Another method (Type 3) to show the amount of material being removed
per pass without recalibrating the Type 1 setting.
Type 1 Calibration ABS:
Calibration for the DRO to show sanded thickness (Type 1). Calibration is
quick and easy and requires no extra measuring
device. Make sure the machine is turned OFF and power is disconnected!
1. Wrap the sanding drum with the desired grit abrasive.
2. Lower the sanding drum until it lightly touches the conveyor belt.
3. Turn “ON” the DRO.
4. Hold the “CAL” button 3 seconds until “0.00” appears.
Type 2 Calibration ABS:
Calibration for the DRO to show stock removed per sanding pass (Type
2). Calibration is quick and easy and requires no
extra measuring device. Make sure the machine is turned OFF and power
is disconnected after the first step!
1. Sand a test piece of stock until it is flat and uniform on both sides.
2. Turn the Sander OFF and disconnect power to sander.
3. Position the sanding drum (with abrasive still wrapped on drum) on the
test piece until the drum is lightly touching the test
piece.
4. Press and hold the “CAL” button for 3 seconds until “0.00” appears.
Type 3 Calibration INC:
This method allows saving the original calibration from Type 1 and
confirming the amount of material being removed per
pass.
1. Make one pass sanding your stock. Without changing the drum height
press the “ABS/INC” button to read “0.00”. This
changes the readout from “ABS” to “INC” and zero’s the readout on top of
