4.Push the planer beyond the edge of the work-
piece without tilting it downwards.
NOTE. Planing is easier if you incline the work-

“downhill”.
5. The rate of planing and the depth of cut deter-

you can increase the depth of cut, however to
achieve a good finish you will need to reduce
the depth of cut and advance the tool more
slowly.
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.
