Description

For projects that require board thickness to be beyond exact, the JET 15-Inch Straight Knife Planer gets the job done with ease. This sweet machine features a three-horsepower motor with two-speed gear box to adjust your feed rate for a better finished surface. The innovative Precision Air Strut System (PASS) provides consistent upward pressure on the cutterhead, reducing the chance of board snipe. The rock-solid table is constructed of cast iron and features steel infeed/outfeed table extensions that conveniently fold out of the way. Finally, because even the coolest power planer is one of the messiest machines on the planet, JET’s angled 4-inch dust port keeps your dust hose out of the way for easy hookup to your shop’s dust collection system. Key Features: • Precision Air Strut System provides consistent upward pressure on the cutterhead, reducing the chance of board snipe • Straight cutter head has three high-speed steel knives that lock firmly in place to prevent movement while in use • Dual infeed speed control for 16 fpm or 20 fpm maximizes cut efficiency • Steel infeed/outfeed tables provide support for workpieces, and fold away for convenience • Large hand wheel with positive gear drive easily moves the head to the desired board thickness • Maximum depth of cut 1/8-in, 6-in cutting height and 15-in width capacity
