201 22" Planer
The Gold Standard Since 1921.
This 1,300 lb. heavy-duty cast iron
planer offers rock solid rigidity and
accurate planing for years to come.
The hinged top allows easy access
to the rollers and knives. The hood
comes standard with a 5" dust port
for easy attachment to any dust
collection system. The cutterhead
is complete with four high speed
steel knives and turns at 4,800 rpm
producing 19,200 cuts per minute.
The anti-kick back fingers and
pressure bar are located in close
proximity to the cutterhead for
an exceptional finish. ■The well
designed infeed and outfeed rollers
are fitted with roller bearings for long
roller life. The sectional infeed and
chip breaker are specially designed
to allow multiple boards to be planed
at the same time. The adjustable bed
roller facilitates both rough and finish
planing. The solid steel outfeed roller
is machined with small serrations to
insure a smooth finish yet provide
positive feeding. ■The two-speed
gearbox with machined detents
is quickly changed up front when
switching from rough to finish work.
You may easily raise the massive
ribbed cast iron, ground finished
table 1/16" with each turn of the hand
wheel. ■The model 201 is available
with 71/2horsepower, 3-phase 230 or
460 volt or 71/2horsepower, single-
phase motors. This planer is perfect
for the small to medium shop with
continuous planing requirements.
