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

planing. Planing will be easier if you incline the
workpiece in stationary fashion, so that you can plane
somewhat downhill.

The power planer keeps cutting at a speed that will not
result in jamming by chips. For rough cutting, the depth
