B)Plung cutting

You need not bore a starting hole or make a lead-in cut if you carefully do as follows:

1.Tilt the tool up on the front edge of the base, with the blade point positioned just above the workpiece surface.

2.Apply firm pressure to the tool so that the front edge of the base will not move when you switch on the tool and gently lower the back end of the tool slowly.

3.As the blade slices into the workpiece, slowly lower the base of the tool down onto the workpiece surface.

4.Complete the cut in the normal manner.
