1. Apply a ruler on the surface of Base
and align Front base level by turning
Knob 44 to the same level of (rear) Base.
Now, the machine has been adjusted
to “Planning depth at 0”.
2. Stick Scale label on the Knob 44,
while aligning “0” to the Triangle
mark on the main fame.

Remove knob 44 again in this case, and approach to drive from the point deviating by 180 degrees
from the old approaching point. So, “0” can exactly align to the Triangle mark.
