NOTE. Planing is easier if you incline the work- piece slightly away from you so that you plane “downhill”.

CAUTION: Moving the machine too fast may cause a poor quality of cut and can dam- age the blades or the motor. Moving the ma- chine too slowly may burn or mar the cut.

The proper feed rate will depend on the type of material being cut and the depth of the cut. 3UDFWLFH¿UVWRQDVFUDSSLHFHRIPDWHULDOWRJDXJH the correct feed rate and the cut dimensions.

CAUTION: Always use two hands to hold the planer. Where possible, clamp the workpiece to the bench.
