diameter cast iron handwheel with spinner handle drives the height adjustment
mechanism. Each full revolution of the handwheel produces just over 1/16” of change to
make the ultra fine adjustments necessary to hit a specific thickness easy to achieve.
Though unlikely, the lead screws can be adjusted individually should the table ever get
out of alignment.
The table is locked in place
by a knob at each end that
locks the table to the lead
screw at that end. The
locking handles can be
moved to either side of the
JET JWP-15DX and JWP-
15HH to make them more
easily accessible if one side
has limited access in your
situation.
Adjustable height rollers in the primary table (left) make moving rough stock
through the machine easier. The large roller extension tables (right) increase
the overall table support to 48” long!
A pair of rollers set into the primary table surface below the cutterhead help maintain
smooth movement of rough stock through the JET JWP-15DX and JWP-15HH. The
above table height of the rollers is easily adjustable.
We also include a pair of 14”-long by 15 1/2”-wide roller extension tables that increase
the overall table surface to 48” in length. The extension tables mount to the primary table
with bolts but have set screws below each of them that allow precise alignment of the
rollers to the primary table. This is a far more efficient system than trying to shim the
extension tables to bring them into alignment with the primary table surface.
Note: The JWP-15HH planer comes with solid cast iron extension tables in place of the
roller versions supplied with the JWP-15DX. The cast iron extension tables mount
identically to the roller versions.
Top Rollers
The heavy duty material rollers
on top make returning heavy
stock for the next cut easier and
safer.
To make moving the stock from one side of the JET JWP-
15DX and JWP-15HH to the other for repeat cuts easier we
added a pair of material rollers to the cutterhead housing.
The iron rollers put the often-heavy stock at a comfortable
43 1/2“ above the floor.
If you are considering adding the power, accuracy and
durability of a stationary planer to your shop, the value-
packed JET JWP-15DX and JET JWP-15HH should be
at the top of your must see list!
