==Description==

The Powermatic jointer contains a 1HP motor and 6" capacity that will handle the most demanding work. The helical cutterhead provides quieter operation and finer finishing than conventional systems. The 4" dust port connects easily to any dust collector. Used to remove material from wood, as well as squaring to create straight pieces.

The jointers function is to produce a flat surface along a boards length and has a 6" width capacity. When gluing board edges together they need to be flat and fit together without gaps. A jointer cuts with a helical cutter-head made up of many tiny carbide cutters wrapped around a rotating drum. Some of the cheaper and older machines use blades rather than carbide inserts to cut away material.
