revolution of the handwheel produces just over 1/16of 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 pair of knobs each securing both lead screws at that end. The locking handles can be moved to either side of the POWERMATIC 15HH to make them more easily accessible if one side has limited access.

A pair of rollers set into the primary table surface below the cutterhead help maintain smooth movement of rough stock through the POWERMATIC 15HH. The above table height of the rollers is easily adjustable.

We also include a pair of 14-long by 15 ¾-wide cast iron extension tables rather than the roller types. When installed they bring the overall surface to 48in length.

The cast iron extension tables have setscrew adjusters built into their mounts that make leveling them to the primary table simple and fast.

The smooth surface of cast iron extension tables makes it easier to introduce wood into the machine, particularly when “training” one piece against the end of the one before it. They also eliminate the possibility of pinching a finger between the stock and a roller as the stock exits the machine.

but have set screws below each of them that allow fine-tuning their

 

surface to the primary table. This is a far more efficient system than

Digital Scale

We offer a digital scale (DRO Retrofit Kit #708520) that brings true digital accuracy and flexibility to your POWERMATIC 15HH. The DRO kit installs easily with its included hardware and precise calibration is a snap.

The DRO has built-in modes that make many planning tasks easier and dead on accurate. It can also be changed to display inch or

Adding the Digital Readout Scale brings a new level of precision to the 15HH.
