The Jet 1791317K is a model 54HH 6 inch Jointer with 6 Row Helical Cutterhead. The 6 inch Jointer features a helical cutterhead with 40 four-sided knife inserts. The design provides a superior finish and quieter operation compared to conventional cutterheads and the inserts require no adjustment once they are installed. If a knife insert becomes nicked, it can be rotated for a fresh edge and the user can continue working. Oversized infeed/outfeed tables are mounted on dovetailed ways and have a built-in rabbeting ledge. The fence is 38 inch in length, with positive stops at 90° and 45° right and left. The fine/quick adjustment lever on the infeed table offers quick set-ups with precision controlled depth of cut. The heavy steel stand features a 1 HP motor with a non-slip v-belt drive for maximum performance. The 4 inch dust port offers easy connection to any dust collection system.
