Description

We see a future built on great brands, great products and great people. In every facet of our business we leverage the strengths of our global infrastructure to maximize the benefits of all three. Boasting a 1-1/2-horsepower motor, the Jet 708524 JPM-13CS planer/molder produces a superior finish with its three-cutter head design and can handle material up to 13 inches wide and up to 6 inches in height. A sturdy cast-iron table and base provide strength and reduce vibration during use, and built-in lockable casters add support and stability while allowing easy maneuverability. Designed and built with the home woodworking shop in mind (view larger). Power Base for Home WoodworkingDesigned and built with the home woodworking shop in mind, the Jet 708524 JPM-13CS has a totally enclosed 1-1/2-horsepower, 115-volt motor that can easily be rewired to 230 volts. The motor delivers its power to the cutterhead assembly through a pair of V-belts running in precision-machined multi-groove pulleys. A removable side door on the cabinet provides access to the motor and its belt-tensioning mount should adjustment become necessary in the future.Superior Cutting and FeedingThe JPM-13CS features an all-steel, precision-machined cutterhead (2-9/16-inch diameter) fitted with three full-width knives. The knives are retained by three-piece wedge-shaped gibs that allow for the installation of many molding- knife profiles without removing the planer blades. The center gib section makes installing most molding knives easy (2 inches wide and under).The planer/molder has two feed rates, with the high 20 FPM (feet per minute) setting used primarily for dimensioning wood when lots of material is being removed quickly. The 10 FPM speed is used for finish cuts when the smoothest possible surface is desired, and this slower feed rate is also used for molding operations.Rubber-covered infeed and outfeed rollers keep the stock moving at a consistent pace, and the rubber feed roller surface gets a good grip on the wood without marring the profiled surface of molded wood. Both of the feed rollers are easily adjustable to maintain their performance.Generously Sized, High-Quality TableThe cast-iron table lends plenty of heft and contact surface, measuring 19-1/4 inches long by 14 inches wide. The table has 6 inches of travel maintained by lead screws on either side and is driven by an easy-to-use hand crank on top of the machine. Handy metric and inch scales flank the infeed housing opening to make adjusting cut depth simple and accurate. It comes with an incorporated dust chute--so it's simple to hook up to a dust collector and keep the shop clean. Four lockable casters (not standard) make it easy to maneuver the tool in a tight shop. It's backed by a five-year limited warranty. What's in the BoxOne Jet 708524 JPM-13CS planer/molder, and operating and assembly instructions.SpecificationsMotor: 1-1/2 horsepower, 1 phase, 115/230 volt Maximum planing width: 13 inches Maximum planing thickness: 6-1/8 inches Maximum planing length: 14 inches Cutterhead: 4,500 rpm speed, 2-9/16-inch diameter Cuts per minute: 13,500 Feed rate: 20 feet per minute (FPM) planing; 10 FPM molding Dimensions: 24 inches by 25 inches by 41 inches Weight: 258 pounds Warranty: 5-year, limited From the Manufacturer This JET planer/molder features a sturdy cast-iron table, mounted on four precision-ground steel columns for reduced vibration and smooth feeding. It has fully adjustable rubber-coated infeed and outfeed rollers, with a 1-1/2-horsepower motor, which is fully enclosed, fan cooled, and is located at the base of the machine to protect it from wood chips and dust. The two matched V-belts deliver full power to the three-knife cutterhead, while the two-speed gearbox provides smooth molding and fast planing. The high-quality tool steel of the three steel knife sets will provide a superior finish. Adding to the ease of operation, all cutters under 2-inches in width may be installed without removing the planing knives. It has a 13-inch-wide and 6-1/8-inch-thick planing and molding capability.

  • A decent planer for the money.
Style: Planer/Molder
I've been in the market for a planer for my small woodworking business. So, I have been comparing the various brands out there. It seems that all the planers are now only made by a few companies. The changes between brands are mostly cosmetic. Even the favorite brand of a lot of woodworkers, Powermatic is made over seas now. So I could not justify the extra cost. This Jet planner I bought is the same,one the Grizzley tools sells. But it has a few options that I preferred over the simular Grizzley. The Jet has a enclosed stand, and does not need to be assembled. The Jet has a built in castor wheels. You have to buy a seperate rolling stand for the other planer. And,finally with free shipping not just to my house, but brought into my shop... the Jet was the better value. As for set up and operation. All I basically had to do was install the lowering/lifting crank, and install and properly adjust the infeed and outfeed extensions. It took me less than a hour to get up and cutting. I had no snipe on long boards and when I checked for level of the cutting surface with my dial calipers, the difference was only .01 from one end to the other. Also with the 2 separate feed rates and the three cutting knives. The finish on my lumber was more than adequate. As for noise... this this is not nearly as loud as my 20 year old benchtop planner with the universal motor. Size wise this planner is very compact, and does not take up much space In my shop. It would be nice if there were some handles to move the planner around, but I can live with that. I am planning on getting some moulding knives in the future, so I will update my review after setting them up. ... show more

  • It doesn't work as well as one might expect
Style: Planer/Molder
The unit has a severe feed problem requiring me to push material through the machine. I checked the alignment of the rollers which were set to factory specs. I readjusted the in feed and out feed rollers to provide more pressure. That improved performance but not entirely.

  • Get an extra set of knives and dust collector
Style: Planer/Molder
This is a great planer if you get the in feed and out feed rollers set right so it doesn't snipe. And if you don't have a dust collecter you better have a air hose to blow out the planer shaveings. Read the manual about all the different settings before using it. I used mine on about 50 board ft on clear pine an it already has two nicks in the knives. Well I guess thats what they make sand paper for, right ? Well if you read the manuel will tell you that board's 5 1/2 and under you can plane an 1/8 th off at a time Anything over 5 1/2 you should only take a 1/16th. BS! your lucky if you can fit a board in at 1/32. It hits the top of the opening at that. The saw dust really jams up on the second feed roller if you don't have a dust collector. ... show more

  • Good Buy, All the Way Around..
Style: Planer/Molder
I am just a weekend DIYer, my experience is based on more than my share of trial and error. As a frugal buyer I research a product to death before I buy. I chose JPM-13CS not only because it is Jet and they've served my needs well but for its lower noice level due to the motor inside a cabinet. My shop is my garage in a suburban neighborhood. The planer was delivered on time with good communication from MaxTools on every part of the shipment, courteous and willing to listen to my questions before giving me factual feedback. The delivery was as informed, without issues. The planer was easy enough to assemble, and set up. Its is quieter than the DeWalt I was borrowing, by a considerable amount. Running at no-load it is 90 decibels, planing red oak 1/16" cut it is 104 decibels, low enough not to have my wife or my neighbors complaining. The cut is smooth with little if any snipe over several test runs. I'm very happy with the purchase, delivery and the planer. ... show more

  • Slow, doesn't feed well
Its alright if you are planing wood that is not very wide, other than that it doesn't feed well and you have to push it the whole time. I have tried taking less, adjusting rollers, etc.

  • Poor quality and customer support
Style: Planer/Molder
I ordered this machine for two reasons. 1. To plane boards and 2. to make molding. I run a small cabinet shop and thought it would be nice to have the second ability. The planer performs its function as a planer poorly at best. There is very evident snipe on both ends of the boards that pass through. Being that this was the primary function of this machine in my shop it was very disappointing. After more than a dozen adjustments per the manufactures manual, through experimentation, and the recomendation (singular) of Jet tech support it could not be adjusted out. After further inspection it was found that the planer's table actualy had 1/32nd to a 1/16th of an inch movement vertically on the infeed end and outfeed end. I figure that is the reason for the snipe on every pass. The other major disappointment of this purchase is Jet technical support. Don't bother calling them for help. I asked about the snipe problem and they answered "yeah, all of these machines do that". When they were told about the movement in the table they had no response and had to go find an engineer to find an answer. I had no response in 3 days, and had to call them back to try to get an answer. But there was no answer except that the guy who knew about this was away from his desk and they would need to call me back. This was 2 days ago. Maybe I received a machine that was built on Friday right before quiting time? I would not recommend buying this machine to anyone at this point. If you want a planer, buy a planer. If you want a molder, buy a molder. But don't buy this planer/molder. ... show more
