JET 20-Inch Planer, Helical Cutterhead, 5 HP, 230V 1Ph (Model JWP-208HH)

Q: The description indicates two sets of rollers for infeed and outfeed. The picture of the planer and some of the reveiwers idicate cast iron tables. Which one would I get?

My Amish neighbor purchased this planer through me and is very satisfied with it. It has a cast iron table and I assume rollers on the top, before and after the cutter head. He has rotated the cutters one time in the 2.5 years he has used it. It is a very good machine. By the way, he has it hooked to a line shaft after removing the electric motor.

Q: What is the overall height of the machine

The height of the machine is 40.75”. This includes the height adjustment wheel. The height adjustment wheel is the highest point on the machine.

Q: What are the dimensions of the base cabinet on the Jet 208hh (need to know to preassemble a mobile base)?

27.5 by 21.5 inches. The cabinet is hollow with an open bottom. There is a 1 inch piece of metal that runs the perimeter of the inside cabinet base so if you are going to have thru bolts and nuts you will need to keep them inside the metal band as well (or you can drill thru the banding). Also in the corners inside the base there is a 45 degree piece of metal as well that is once inch wide at the widest point.
