This 6 In. jointer features a helical cutter head with 40 four-sided indexable carbide knife inserts – this design provides a superior finish and quieter operation compared to conventional cutter heads, and the inserts require no adjustment once they are installed. If a knife insert becomes nicked, simply rotate it for a fresh edge and continue working. Oversized Infeed/outfeed tables are mounted on dovetailed ways. The fence is 38 In. in length, with positive stops at 90° and 45° right and left. The fine/quick adjustment lever on the Infeed table offers quick set-ups with precision controlled depth of cut. The heavy steel stand features a 1 HP motor with a non-slip v-belt drive for maximum performance. The 4 In. dust port offers easy connection to any dust collection system.


Additional Features
  • Helical cutter head with four-sided knife inserts provides smoother, quieter cutting and finer finish than conventional systems
  • 66 In. long adjustable Infeed and outfeed tables provide more working surface
  • Fine/quick adjustment lever on Infeed table for precision cuts
  • Extra-long 38 In. two-way tilting fence with positive stops provides quick positioning for 90° or bevel cuts
