Amazon.com Review
So you've found an entire block of condemned Victorian houses, and the mayor has given you exclusive rights to the flooring in exchange for--oh, let's just say--a bit of support in his re-election campaign. With that still two years off, the only problem facing you now is removing the random pits, warps, and other blemishes of this salvage-lumber gold mine. For professional tasks that mock portable planers' capabilities, Jet's 15-inch enclosed-stand model gives you smooth surfaces as long as you keep it fed. Powered by a completely enclosed, 3-horsepower induction motor, it efficiently converts 230 volts into 13,500 cuts per minute at 4,500 rpm. The positive gear drive system adjusts depth quickly, and, with its smooth-cranking hand wheel, you can slice up to 1/8 of an inch off boards as large as 15 inches wide and 6 inches thick. Infeed and outfeed tables use three industrial steel rollers each to ensure smooth transfer from the planer's nonslip serrated intake all the way through the knives. You'll appreciate features like the smaller return rollers on top for handling large planks and the magnetic safety switch that prevents the machine from automatically turning on after power outages. Set on four heavy-duty, cam-lock casters, it easily rolls into position and stays where you place it. Go on and take the offer to gut those houses this year. --Justin Paul

From the Manufacturer
The one-piece steel stand on JET's 15-inch planer has lockable casters. The hand wheel adjusts the table up or down, quickly and accurately. The cast-iron and steel construction adds stability and durability, while the 3 hp, single-phase, 230-volt motor delivers full power via a three V-belt system. Two steel work-return rollers, located atop the planer, make transferring your work easier. The steel infeed, serrated infeed, and smoother outfeed rollers allow for 1/8-inch depth of cut while helping to support your workpiece. Other features include an automatic chain tensioner on the gearbox and jackscrews on the cutterhead, with springs to make knife adjustments easy and accurate. It has a 15-inch maximum cutting width and a maximum cutting thickness of 6 inches. The 4-inch dust port angles to the side for efficient chip removal and to keep the dust hose out of the way of your work. Your planer purchase includes magnetic controls, three high-speed steel knives, extension rollers, return rollers, rigid stand with lockable coasters, 4-inch dust chute, and two-speed gearbox. It also includes an extra set of knives, a $99 value.
