Planer Jointer - PT-161

This is one of the most consistently popular planer/jointer in the whole of the Hafco Woodmaster range. Its rugged construction, independently and fully adjustable tables, three-knife cutter block and powerful motor make it a popular choice with keen hobbyists, light trade users and professionals alike.

The planer is constructed largely of cast iron and is mounted on a substantial steel stand which also houses the motor and the switchgear. The planer block is equipped with three high speed steel blades which give an excellent finish to the timber and there is a setting device included which eases the job of blade setting. The planer block is fully protected across its whole width by a strong aluminium alloy guard.

The in-feed and out-feed tables are independently adjustable for height, which not only makes for quick adjustment of the blade height relative to the table but allows for rebate cutting of up to 13mm deep. The fence, which is a heavy cast iron unit with ground surfaces, is clamped in two places and is fully adjustable for angles between 45° and 90°. Waste extraction is from the rear of the via a 100mm dust chute fixed to the body and can be connected to a extractor.
