Jet 708528 20 Inch 3HP 1-phase Planer

Product Description

The JET 708528 is a 20-inch, 3HP single-phase thickness planer built for professional woodworking shops and finish carpentry applications. Rated at 3 horsepower and wired for single-phase power, this machine delivers the torque needed to surface wide stock in a single pass. At 765 pounds, it is a stationary floor unit intended for permanent shop installation. HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades are not the typical end users here — this planer is specified and installed by professional woodworkers, cabinet shops, and mill shops that need consistent, repeatable stock thickness across wide boards.

The JET 708528 is suited for shops processing lumber up to 20 inches wide, including hardwoods and softwoods. Its single-phase electrical requirement makes it practical for shop environments where three-phase service is not available. Typical installations include cabinet shops, custom millwork operations, and professional woodworking facilities that require a high-capacity stationary planer without the need for three-phase electrical infrastructure.

Key Features

• 20-inch cutting width accommodates wide stock in a single pass
• 3HP motor provides torque for hardwood and heavy stock removal
• Single-phase power supply — no three-phase service required
• Stationary floor unit at 765 pounds for vibration-dampening stability
• Designed for consistent, repeatable thickness planing in production shop environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style stationary thickness planer replacement or primary machine for professional woodworking shop installations requiring a 20-inch single-phase unit.

Installation Notes

Installation of the JET 708528 should be performed by a qualified electrician for the single-phase wiring connection, following applicable NEC requirements for motor-driven woodworking equipment. The unit must be anchored to a level concrete or reinforced floor surface due to its 765-pound operating weight. Disconnect and lock out all power before performing blade changes, adjustments, or maintenance. Dust collection ducting should be connected prior to operation in compliance with local shop safety codes.
