The large handwheel (left) makes raising and lowering the heavy cast iron table easy. The specially designed dust ports under the top cover (right) help evacuate the dust to keep the shop environment cleaner.
The massive, 32- 1/4" x 24" ribbed cast iron table is precisely ground to insure it is flat. This heavy table is raised and lowered with a large-diameter iron handwheel. Each full turn of
the handwheel produces a 1/16” change in table height, making ultra-precise cut changes easy to make. The height of the cast iron table is controlled by a pair of heavy- duty lead screws that keep it stable and insure that it remains parallel to the cutterhead throughout its travel. The versatile POWERMATIC PM201HH, 22" Planer has a maximum planing thickness of 9-3/4", minimum stock thickness of 1/8”, a maximum cut depth of 3/16” and can plane wood with a minimum length of just 10”!
The massive cast iron table has gib adjustments at each side on the front for long term clearance adjusting to keep the up and down motion smooth and play free. The lead screws are adjustable as well. Heavy duty adjusting hubs atop each lead screw allow for quick adjusting of the table parallelism.
The table has gib adjustments (left) at either side to eliminate play that might develop over the years. Each of the massive lead screws has an adjusting collar at its top (right) to keep the table parallel to the cutterhead.
The POWERMATIC PM201HH, 22" Planer was designed for small to medium shops with continuous planing requirements. Its 42”-long x 49”-wide and 59”-height packs remarkable planing capabilities into a floor space saving footprint. The rugged construction and labor-saving design means the POWERMATIC PM201HH, 22" Planer will minimize downtime and maintenance costs while maximizing production.
