Powermatic 209HH 20 in. Planers

The heavy-duty 209HH 20 in. Planer by Powermatic offers performance and value, loaded with standard features not found on other machines in its class. The powerful 5 hp motor and 20 in. planing capacity will handle the most demanding work. The helical cutterhead provides quieter operation and finer finishing than conventional systems, and the 100 four-sided carbide knife inserts seat themselves without requiring a set-up gauge. The 5 in. dust port connects easily to any dust collector. The anti-kickback fingers and pressure bar are located in close proximity to the cutterhead for an exceptional finish. The solid cast iron base, table and head are designed for production. The 2-speed oil bath gearbox transmits full power to feed rollers and facilitates fast speed changes at 24 and 31 fpm. The gearbox can be changed to 4-speed with the included gear to run lower speeds of 16 and 20 fpm. The corrugated infeed and fine groove outfeed rollers ensure a smooth feed. Precision ground and polished cast iron table rides on four steel columns giving it plenty of support for the larger workpiece, and heavy cast iron extension wings ensure a flat, smooth cut.
