5 HP Motor for Heavy-Duty Performance
The 5 horsepower induction motor delivers strong and consistent cutting power. It is designed to handle wide boards and dense hardwoods while maintaining steady operation under load.
Helical Cutterhead with Carbide Inserts
The cutterhead features 68 staggered carbide inserts that provide smoother cuts and reduced tear-out. The helical design also helps minimize noise and improves overall finish quality.
JET Black Coated Cast Iron Table
The JET Black performance coating reduces friction, resists rust, and eliminates the need for waxing. This ensures a smoother feed and long-lasting surface durability.
Two-Speed Gearbox for Feed Control
The dual feed speed system allows you to choose between faster material removal or finer finishing passes. The automatic chain tensioner supports consistent and reliable operation.
Stable Construction for Consistent Results
A one-piece welded steel base combined with cast iron tables provides rigidity and stability. This reduces vibration and supports accurate, repeatable planing performance.
