Description
We see a future built on great brands, products, and people. In every facet of our business, we leverage the strengths of our global infrastructure to maximize the benefits of all three. From the Manufacturer This 8-Inch jointer meets the demand for accuracy while combining unique, user-friendly functions. The infeed table lever can be used to rapidly position table height, then the handle rotated for fine-adjustment of cut depth. Fence tilting is accomplished by a worm gear system, smoothly operated by a simple handwheel. The tables provide 73-Inch long extended support. A non-mar insert in the fence protects the table from scratches during adjustments. The jointer is available with a three knife cutterhead, or a helical cutterhead with four-sided knife inserts. The operating switch is high mounted for easy reach, and the push blocks have a magnetic base - store them on any metallic surface for instant access.

Style: Jointer with Helical Cutterhead
Stunningly beautiful. But let's face it, many times beauty is only skin deep. I am constantly amazed that Amazon can ship three, four, or even five hundred pound packages across the continent and have it in my garage two days after I placed the order. And with Amazon prime, they do it for free. This jointer arrived in two separate packages. They are both heavy but the jointer top is exceedingly heavy. It simply is impossible for one man to lift it by himself. I am 6'4" tall, 220 pounds and I have worked in the construction industry my entire life. I am amazingly fit and yet there is no way in the world I could lift this unit and assemble it by myself. So my advice to you is to be sure you have some assistance in lifting the top onto the stand. Once in place, there are only three bolts that connect the two units so it is a very easy assembly. Other than that, there are very minor other assembly issues which must be addressed. They are all very simple and quite intuitive. Maybe I got lucky but the fit and finish on this jointer is far superior to the fit and finish on my 15 HH planer. Honestly with my Powermatic planer, I was a little disappointed at the moderately rough finish of the planing table surface. That is not the case with this jointer. It has been ground and polished to a high sheen. It is the way high end woodworking equipment should be manufactued but rarely is anymore. Honestly, I haven't run a single board through this unit yet but I know, through prior experience with that Shelix helical head on my planer, that I will love the results of the same head on this jointer. I will certainly update once I've completed assembly and run a couple hundred board feet of lumber through it. But I couldn't wait to post my initial reaction. The fit and finish is as good as I have ever seen from any manufacturer. The highly Polished jointer tables are amazing. And I already know that that shelix cutterhead is like nothing else on the market. So back to the shop I go, prepared to work well into the night fine tuning this incredible piece of machinery. Update to follow. UPDATE: I finally had time to address the "set-up" of this planer and I am stunned. Even after shipping across the globe, the beds are dead flat. Both the Infeed and Outfeed tables are perfect. I have measured with a high quality straight edge and couldn't find even the tiniest bit of daylight underneath. I used high end feeler gauges, going progressively smaller and I couldn't fit any of them under the straight edge anywhere. I am pleasantly amazed. These tables are very long and incredibly heavy. I have never seen a jointer that came out of the shipping containers in such perfect condition before. The ONLY adjustment I needed to make was a very minor adjustment to the fence stop for its 90 degree preset stop. That took all of about two minutes. Sooooo................having set aside a couple of hours for final set up, I used the time to play with this incredible machine. After cleaning the unit thoroughly, I applied three coats of Johnson's paste wax to the entire machine, to every surface. I live in a residential area and I'm sensitive to the noise I produce with my shop so I usually relegate my waxing to early mornings. It produces very little noise and it keeps all my machinery in top condition and protects all the surfaces, ESPECIALLY all the cast iron tables. My table saw is well over 30 years old yet it STILL looks virtually new. Finally I ran various pieces of material through the jointer. As expected, the Shelix head is amazing. It is incredibly quiet, although not as quiet as my planer but that is attributable to the cutter head being more exposed on the jointer than on the planer. The finish is flawless and requires very little effort to push the stock across the beds and cutters. I purposefully selected some pieces of Maple which had fairly pronounced cupping and/or bows. After running them through this jointer, they were rifle shot straight.............which is what a jointer is for after all. The effort to obtain that however is minimal with this unit and very little subsequent finish sanding will be required. Definitely Five Stars are warranted. This will be the last jointer of my career. I have found "Jointer-Nirvana". I am SO glad I went with the 8" model instead of the 6". It has ample power for deep cuts in very hard stock. An amazing unit. Very, very pleased.

Style: Jointer with Helical Cutterhead
I have had this jointer for 3 weeks now and I am very impressed !! The assembly took about 45 minutes and went very well. This is a very well built machine and all I had to adjust was the fence angle scale, the outfeed table and the infeed table were spot on , no adjustments needed. This jointer is very heavy and has plenty of power. I was amazed at the first few boards I ran thru the machine, they were all perfect cuts, no snipe and perfectly square. This is the first jointer I have used with the spiral helical cutterhead and it is well worth the price. I have been using jointers for 35 years now and this is my 5th jointer I have owned and this is the best jointer I have ever used !!

The media could not be loaded. Two months into purchasing this machine the aluminum fan blade came loose, and I was depending on the great reputation Powermatic had in regards to servicing it’s tools and its customer service. It is now almost a year after having the machine I’ve called Powermatic three times -they came out twice to replace the aluminum fan blade and the fan blade still comes loose, and now they are avoiding my emails. Calling them only allows them to keep pushing the problem down the road. Beware, Powermatic is riding on a reputation that developed years ago, but he’s no longer able to live up to.

This Powermatic replaces my jointer of the same size and performs as expected. Beds were spot-on upon arrival, no adjustment needed. Fence mounts needed help, but a minor issue. Once set up, it squares the work perfectly and the fence returns to square with no fuss. Dust pickup: The reviews on this are a flat out lie. Chips stream out from under the in feed table, ignoring my 3 HP cyclone system that has always and continues to support 4 other machines admirably, including my previous jointer. 3 calls to Powermatic tech support indicates this is a known issue with no solution other than "more CFM". This remains a pleasure to use, despite chips on the floor.

I bought the Powermatic 8” helical carbide jointer as a replacement for my 6” jointer I had for years, and I think it was one of the best equipment decisions I ever made as a wood worker. I love my Powermatic’s much longer, wider beds and the smooth helical cutter gives a very nice finish to the wood. Another benefit by having carbide cutters is there are 4 sharp cutting edges to each blade. When one edge becomes dull or nicked, all you need to do is rotate the blade 90 degrees and you have a new sharp edge and you don’t have to through any cutter adjustment that you would have to do with a straight cutter blade. As an aside, I took a gamble when I bought the machine because my workshop was only wired with 20 amp, 120 volt outlets. Since the Powermatic requires 240 volts I needed to solved the voltage difference problem, so I bought a step up 5kw transformer. My concern was would my shop circuits take the inrush starting current to the squirrel cage, 2 HP, single phase motor. I held my breath when I first started it up and much to my delight, there wasn’t a problem. I added this tidbit for anyone else facing the same problem.

First the product capability and delivery was excellent. Arrived within a week. I immediately decrated and assembled. I found no cosmetic defects. My issue occurred when I plugged the unit into power. The green light was illuminated, however the saw would not start. I double checked my power and the safety switches, no luck. I opened up the saw panel and inspected the wiring harness, I discovered that one of the hots was wired into the neutral on the connector, see picture showing the black and white wires reversed. I was able to have a friend pop the wires out and switch the the white and black. Saw has run great since. I would of thought that this would of been tested and caught at the factory prior to it arriving on my doorstep
