Jet Planer/Jointer Combo with 12'' Helical Head JPJ-12BHH

If you have limited space in your shop, you might feel that you have to choose between a jointer or a planer. But the Jet JPJ-12BHH combination jointer and planer packs both into the footprint of one! Not only that, you get a helical cutterhead with 42 replaceable, rotatable knives with clean cuts and minimal tear-out. Changeover between jointing and planing functions is quick and easy, with no need to remove the fence. The machine features a heavy-duty cast iron table, and the fence is extra-tall for perfectly square jointed edges. The built-in dust chute functions during both planing and jointing operations, and the powerful 3-horsepower motor can handle the toughest lumber. A fully welded steel base cabinet houses the motor and the planer table mechanism, while providing solid mounting for the associated controls, and support for the jointer table and fence assemblies.

Features:

• Extremely quick changeover between jointing and planing operations—fence does not need to be removed
• Helical head with 42 four-sided insert cutters for exceptionally clean cuts and minimal tear-out
• Heavy-duty cast iron tables with a ground finish to ensure accuracy and flatness
• Rugged one-piece steel enclosed stand includes mounting tabs for increased stability
• Large handwheel for fast, accurate adjustments of planer table
• Parallelogram design keeps the table close to the cutterhead for improved finish and allows for precise depth-of-cut adjustments
• Three high-speed steel knives in cutterhead provide rapid cutting and a superior finish
