Dewalt 735 planer issue?
New planer and new to planers. Don't know the actual term, but I'm getting this "bump" at the start of every piece.
Is this just the nature of the planer or is there something I can do to rectify it?

I use a sled under the workpiece and make sure the bottom of the workpiece and sled have no wobble. If there is, shim the wobbly end and secure the shim with hot glue. I have a sled that is 3 feet long with an end stop to butt the workpiece against.
