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 cutting, 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.

Shiplapping (Rabbeting)

To make a stepped cut as shown in the figure, use the edge fence (guide rule).

Draw a cutting line on the workpiece. Insert the edge fence into the hole in the front of the tool. Align the blade edge with the cutting line.
