Poor surface finish with visible ripples.

Reduce the cutting depth per pass. Ensure the blades are sharp and properly installed. Check the wood grain direction.

Motor stops during operation.

Check the overload protection. Reduce the cutting depth and feed rate. Ensure the voltage supply is adequate.
