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 rotated up into a very traditional location for planer dust
evacuation. The planer section is now ready for use.
To go back to the jointer mode, rotate the dust shroud down, release the jointer table lock,
lower the table into position and then engage the two locking levers. The JET JJP-12
Jointer-Planer is ready for jointing operations in seconds.
Jointer Mode
Because both the machine modes use the same 12”
cutterhead, the jointer section is capable of face jointing
12”-wide stock. The 55”-long by 12”-wide cast iron infeed
and outfeed tables provide plenty of support for the big
project pieces.
The infeed and outfeed cast iron tables are individually
adjustable for height for the most flexibility. The maximum
cut depth is 1/8”. To insure long-term accuracy, we even
included full coplanar adjustment capability and complete
instructions in the manual for making this adjustment
should it become necessary.
The 43”-long by 6”-tall extruded aluminum smooth faced
fence makes accurate jointing easy. The fence is fully
adjustable for material width using a pair of wide spread levers for maximum stability.
The fence face can be set to any angle from 0 to 45-degrees for precise bevel cuts. A
handy bevel scale and pointer are included on the fence mount.
The JET JJP-12 has a whopping
12” jointing width capacity! The
fence and fully adjustable infeed
and outfeed tables make this an
extremely versatile machine.
Bridge Style Cutter Guard
The bridge style cutter guard may take a little getting used to
but is much safer than the “pork chop” shaped guards. This
style guard is simple to set up and with just a little experience
will actually be easier for many than dealing with the swing-
away guards.
The bridge style guard is very
effective and easy to set up.
When jointing the wide face on boards, the cutter guard is
adjusted so that the board passes beneath it. Turning the knob
at its mounting base controls the height of the guard over the
cutter. This keeps the entire cutter area covered and prevents
