ss planer issue

I sent these cherry boards through my Shopsmith pro thickness planer. The pland left the boards with what appear to be burn marks. I sent them through at the lowest feed rate and took only a small amount of material. What did I do wrong? Dull blades? Feed rate? Is there a way to remove these marks? ...

Re: ss planer

Thanks.
One more question:
It appears from the picture that there is some surface rust on the infeed/outfeed tables. Will that clean up and what should I use to clean it?
Thx

Re: ss planer

Thanks for all the replies.
I have seen pictures and it does appear to be a "professional planer".
I would be picking it up; so shipping damage should not be a problem.
Maybe I'll take the plunge
