Powermatic 1791283 PJ1696 16" Jointer with Helical Cutter Head, 7-1/2 HP, 3 Phase, 230-460V

The Powermatic 1791283 is a 16" Jointer with Helical Cutter Head. The large center-mounted fence assembly adjusts easily via rack and pinion system with ram lock. Preset stops on the fence body allow for fast angle set-up at 45º in and out and a positive stop for perfect 90º. The Parallelogram design keeps the table in close proximity to the cutterhead for improved finish and allows for a fast depth of cut adjustment. This design also insures the tables remain perfectly parallel even after years of tough duty. The specially designed solid steel helical cutterhead consists of six rows of staggered 14 mm inserts precision ground on 4 sides. This system makes fast work of knife changing and never needs adjustment.
