Planing operation

1
► 1 . Start 2. End
Apply the tool front base flat upon the workpiece
surface without the planer blades contacting the work-
piece. Switch on and wait until the blades attain full
speed. Then move the tool gently forward at a uniform
speed. Apply pressure on the front of tool at the start of
planing, and on the rear at the end of planing.
The speed and depth of cut determine the finish. To obtain a
good surface finish, plane deeply until you get near the desired
depth, and then plane thinly and slowly for the final pass.
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.
► 1 . Blade edge 2. Cutting line
Adjust the edge fence until it comes in contact with the side
of the workpiece, then secure it by tightening the screw.
