operations, but is here explained for reference.

now in tolerance measuring mode. When the up-
arrow indicator is displayed, it means the
measured value is beyond the upper limit. When
the down-arrow indicator is displayed, the
measured value is below the lower limit. When
the display shows an “OK” indicator, the
measured value is within tolerance.

Calibrating & Using Digital
Scale
Scale
Scale Alignment
The scale assembly has been mounted and
aligned with the 15S Planer table at the factory.
The scale should be in vertical position, and the
digital device should slide smoothly along the full
length of the scale. Check occasionally that the
screws holding the device to the planer are tight.
If any realignment of the scale should ever be
needed, slots are provided in the mounting
brackets (Fig. 41).

Establish Absolute Zero
One of your first steps should be to “zero” the
digital scale in absolute mode. This is equivalent
to finding the exact point of contact between the
cutterhead knife and the table. This can’t be
done simply by raising the table, because the
depth limiter on the head casting will prevent
contact between table and cutterhead. However,
there are two relatively easy methods of
establishing zero in absolute mode:

Method 1 uses a gauge, such as a height
gauge, or a home-made gauge block (see Fig.

sure it has been cut to exact specifications.

1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Turn on the digital display. It turns on in
absolute mode.
3. Place the gauge upon the planer table and

lies solidly upon the table and not upon the
table rollers.)

4. Raise the table until the gauge just touches
the lowest point of a knife. Rock the
cutterhead slightly (use the pulley to do this)
to make certain the knife’s high point is
contacting the gauge.
