Power and production are what you get with this great thing about a planer from Jet. The 3 horsepower, single-phase, 230-volt motor will provide you with 5,000 rpm for a total of 20,000 cuts per minute by the use of the four-knife cutterhead, turning raw lumber into smooth, in a position-to-work boards in minutes.

Professionals will love this planer’s incredible capacity, with an entire 20 inches of width and 6 inches under the cutterhead and an entire-width max depth of cut of three/32-inch.

The gear box has two feed speeds, easily set by pulling out or pushing in a lever even as the planer is running. There are three rugged steel infeed rollers that clutch hold of the stock for you, paired with three rubber outfeed rollers that won’t mar your piece. Anti-kickback fingers operate by gravity, keeping stock from being thrown back at you.

A big handwheel makes depth changes a very easy task, turning smoothly and moving the table surface is .059″ with every complete revolution. Yes, the table surface. As a substitute of the cutterhead coming right down to the work, the work moves as much as the stationary cutterhead. It appeared just a little unconventional, however the end result’s flawless, so we don’t have any beef with it, excluding for the truth that it makes difficult the job of creating auxiliary feed tables. The depth scale is obvious and legible, marked in increments of one/16-inch. We adore the sturdy go back rollers mounted on most sensible, providing you with an excellent spot to rest the stock and giving your arms and back a break at the travel back to the infeed side.

It is a beautifully made machine, with the have compatibility and finish you’d be expecting on this price category, form the only-piece welded base to the serrated infeed rollers and the glass-like table surface. To keep the tables pristine, you’ll need to apply talcum power with a blackboard eraser once a week – use numerous elbow grease. The table will stay slick and secure, and your workpieces won’t select up any discoloration from the powder.

It is a dream planer for the house woodworker, and it is going to be the staple in any professional’s workshop. Well done, Jet.–Kris Jensen-Van Heste
