JET JJP-12 Jointer-Planer
A frustrating choice
woodworkers often face
is whether to get a jointer
or a planer first. That
choice is made more
difficult because these
machines compliment
each other to dimension,
square and smooth the
wood. The new JET JJP-
12 Jointer-Planer
eliminates that problem
and brings both
capabilities to your shop
in one accurate, durable and economical package.
The JET JJP-12 Jointer-Planer brings two crucial woodworking processes,
jointing (left) and planing (right) to the shop in one space and money saving
package.
The JET JJP-12 Jointer-Planer is based on a heavy-duty, fully welded steel base cabinet
that houses the motor along with the planer table mechanism. The cabinet also provides
solid mounting for the associated controls as well as supporting the jointer table and
fence assemblies.
Power
The JET JJP-12 Jointer-Planer features a 3HP, 230V,
12.5A, 1Ph TEFC (totally enclosed fan cooled) motor
that supplies consistent power to the cutterhead that is
used for both jointing and planing operations as well as
the feed roller system in the planer mode. The belts and
feed roller drive chain systems are contained within the
cabinet but readily accessible through the large
removable panel on the cabinet rear.
To protect the motor – and you – we include a
magnetic On/Off switch with a built-in limiter. This
switch prevents excessive variances in the electrical power from damaging the motor.
Another benefit of a magnetic switch is that should the power go out and then come back
on the JET JJP-12 Jointer-Planer will not restart on its own. The On button must be
pushed after power is restored to start the machine. The limit switch also prevents
machine startup while changing modes of operation.
The 3 HP motor and drives are contained
in the cabinet but accessible through a
removable rear panel.
"Loading the manual" means you need to wait until the file loads and becomes available for online reading. Some manuals are very large, and the time they take to appear depends on your internet speed.
Summary
Capacities To make the JET JJP-12 Jointer-Planer as capable as it is versatile, the jointing and planing width capacity is a full 12”. That capacity allows you to work with wider boards without having to rip them down to fit common jointer widths in the 6 to 8” range. Because both the jointer and pl...
The dust collection shroud with its 4”-diameter outlet port is also hinged for use in both the jointing and planing modes. The shroud has an internal, gravity-operated baffle plate that helps direct the collection vacuum for maximum effectiveness. When the jointer bed is up, the dust shroud is rotat...
the operator from pushing down directly over the cutter, something you shouldn’t be doing anyway. For edge jointing operations, the guard is adjusted to allow the material to pass between its end and the fence. Here again, the unused cutter remains covered throughout the operation.
