starting at the middle and working your way
to the ends by alternating left and right. Re-
peat this step on the rest of the knives.
9. Repeat Step 8, but final tighten each gib
bolt.
10. Adjust the outfeed table to match the new
knife heights (refer to Setting Outfeed Table
Height).
11. Replace the cutterhead guard and the rear

CALIBRATING INFEED TABLE
The infeed table height is calibrated by adjust-
ing the depth scale and depth stop knob.
CALIBRATING DEPTH SCALE
The depth scale on the infeed table can be cali-
brated or "zeroed" if it is not correct.
To calibrate the depth scale:
1. Set the outfeed table height as described in
Setting Outfeed Table Height.
2. Move the cutterhead guard out of the way.
3. Place a straightedge across the infeed and
outfeed tables.
4. Adjust the infeed table until it is level with
the outfeed table, as illustrated in Figure 60.
5. Using a screwdriver, adjust the scale pointer
exactly to "0".
