OPERATION
Planing operation
First, rest the tool front base flat upon the workpiece surface without the
blades making any contact. Switch on and wait until the blades attain full
speed. Then move the tool gently forward. Apply pressure on the front of tool
at the start of planing, and at the back at the end of planing. Planing will be
easier if you incline the workpiece in stationary fashion, so that you can plane
somewhat downhill.
The speed and depth of cut determine the kind of finish. The power planer
keeps cutting at a speed that will not result in jamming by chips. For rough cut-
ting, the depth of cut can be increased, while for a good finish you should
reduce the depth of cut and advance the tool more slowly.

Although this side view cannot
show it, the edges of the blades
run perfectly parallel to the rear
base surface.
Cause: One or both blades fails to
have edge parallel to rear
base line.
Cause: One or both blade edges
fails to protrude enough in
relation to rear base line.
Cause: One or both blade edges
protrudes too far in relation
to rear base line.
