2. Rotate thickness dial to 1-inch setting.
3. Feed a board, making several passes top and
bottom, until the final pass is taken with the
head lowered to the thickness gauge stop.
4. Carefully measure the board thickness using a
calipers.
 If it measures 1-inch, the gauge is correct;

as follows.
5. Remove side panel (refer to Figure 10-4).
