Because the inserts and the seats into which they fit are 
so precisely machined, there is no adjustment or 
“fitting” necessary. Indexing or replacing an insert 
takes just seconds. Simply loosen the T25 Torx screw 
(wrench included), turn the insert to its new position 
and tighten the screw.  
 
The durability of the carbide combined with the low 
impact, shear cutting action means they have an 
extremely long life that substantially exceeds that of 
straight blades. The potential life span of these carbide 
inserts means that many wood workers may go years 
before having to index them. Should a hidden piece of 
metal be encountered and actually damage a few of the 
carbide inserts only those need to be indexed or 
replaced. Just in case you accidentally plane a metal object, we include a package of ten 
spare inserts and a wrench with the JET JWP-15HH. 
The carbide cutters on the helical head 
each have four individual edges. Should 
one edge go dull the inserts can be 
indexed four times, each producing a 
totally new edge. 
 
Feed & Rollers 
 
The JET JWP-15DX and JWP-15HH have two material feed rates 
–20 FPM (Feet Per Minute) used primarily for rough 
dimensioning and 16 FPM to increase the cuts-per-inch to create a 
silky-smooth surface. A push/pull knob shifts between the feed 
rates on the fly. The rollers are driven by a gear and chain drive 
with an automatic chain tensioner, housed in a cast iron case. The 
gear section runs in an industrial style oil bath for maximum 
control over long-term wear. 
 
For the ultimate in dependability, we designed a serrated steel 
infeed roller and a smooth steel outfeed roller. Both rollers and the chip breaker are 
precisely set at the factory but have user accessible adjustments that make it easy to keep 
these planers perfectly tuned in years to come. We also included infeed and outfeed roller 
spring tension adjusters that are accessible without having to 
disassemble the cutterhead housing covers. The operators’ 
manual included has a full set of illustrated instructions for 
making these adjustments. 
 
Dual feed rates allow 
quick dimensioning of the 
wood and then slowing the 
material speed for highly 
refined finish cuts. 
 
The all-metal adjustable feed 
rollers, anti-kickback fingers 
and adjustable chip breaker 
make this an exceptionally 
safe and user-friendly planer. 
 
To enhance operator safety, we added a row of closely spaced 
anti kickback fingers. These steel fingers are gravity operated 
and require no adjustment. They automatically engage the 
wood as it enters the cutterhead and help prevent it from being 
kicked out.
