PJ-882HH Jointer, 2HP 1PH 230V

The 8-foot Parallelogram Jointer is a high-performance woodworking machine that offers great value. It comes with numerous features that make it a top choice for woodworkers. The cutterhead has a helical design with 54 four-sided knife inserts. These inserts produce a superior finish and operate much quieter than conventional cutterheads. Once installed, they don't need adjustment. The jointer has an extra-long 82-inch bed for better work support. It features an innovative single handwheel design that allows you to tilt the fence in and out with positive stops at +/-45 and 90 degrees. A non-mar insert in the fence contacts the table to prevent scratching during adjustments. The parallelogram design keeps the table close to the cutterhead, improving the finish and enabling fast depth of cut adjustment. It also ensures the table remains perfectly parallel even after years of heavy use. The 2HP motor is fully enclosed in a heavy steel stand, providing enough power and stability for the most demanding jobs. Key features include a high-mount switch for operator convenience, a large 8' x 82' precision ground cast iron table surface for heavy-duty work, a parallelogram design for easy and accurate table adjustment, a parallelogram design for close table-to-cutterhead proximity and fast depth of cut adjustments, and a patented handwheel with a worm gear system for precise fence tilting.

Using this jointer is easy. First, make sure the power is off and the motor is cool. Place your workpiece on the infeed table. Adjust the depth of cut according to your needs using the fast adjustment feature of the parallelogram design. Use the single handwheel to tilt the fence to the desired angle, with positive stops at +/-45 and 90 degrees. When you're ready, turn on the high - mount switch. The 2HP motor will start running, and you can slowly feed the workpiece through the cutterhead. As for maintenance, regularly clean the table surface to keep it smooth. Check the 54 four - sided knife inserts for any signs of wear. If they are worn out, replace them. Keep the dust collection system working well as it requires a minimum of 450 CFM. Remember, this product may cause cancer and reproductive harm, so always use it in a well - ventilated area and follow safety procedures. Also, make sure your circuit size is at least 20 amps as recommended.
