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).
. Blade edge
. Cutting line
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.
. Screw
. Edge fence
Adjust the edge fence until it comes in contact
with the side of the workpiece, then secure it
by tightening the screw.
When planing, move the tool with the edge
fence flush with the side of the workpiece.
Otherwise uneven planing may result.
Maximum shiplapping (rabbeting) depth is 9
mm (/").
You may wish to add to the length of the
fence by attaching an extra piece of wood.
Convenient holes are provided in the fence
for this purpose, and also for attaching an
extension guide (optional accessory).
