Obviously I made a mistake when I calibrated my ts60 to a track for my ts55 - as a cut i made afterwards with the ts60 shaved the splinter guard about 1.5-2 mm from the rail aluminum edge instead of the existing edge that was expected.

So i will proceed with repeating the procedure with a different rail, but wanted to ask if there are any things i should look out for on my 2nd attempt.

Im guessing something shifted or i just pressed too hard on the front edge and compressed the guard strip.  I had the rail clamped to the 3/4 plywood (on rigid foam), so I don’t think that is thr source of the error.  Cut was made at full cut depth.  I used the ts60 blade change (quick stop?) during the adjustment.  I believe i had teeth engaging the plywood at front and under the 0.15mm feeler gauge at the back.

Any suggestions or things to look for going forward?
 
You probably just pressed too hard. Give it another try and don't over think it.
It took me 2 attempts on mine too, I didn't go far enough. Good part of it is that the TS60 is way easier to adjust.
 
Thanks. 

I was a bit surprised after my verification cut kicked off a bit more dust than expected, then was more surprised at how little guard was left.  I’m just glad I didn’t shave off any aluminum.
