A sturdy cast-iron table and base provide strength and reduce vibration during use, and built-in lockable casters add support and stability while allowing easy maneuverability. Designed and built with the home woodworking shop in mind (view larger). Power Base for Home WoodworkingDesigned and built with the home woodworking shop in mind, the Jet 708524 JPM-13CS has a totally enclosed 1-1/2-horsepower, 115-volt motor that can easily be rewired to 230 volts. The motor delivers its power to the cutterhead assembly through a pair of V-belts running in precision-machined multi-groove pulleys. A removable side door on the cabinet provides access to the motor and its belt-tensioning mount should adjustment become necessary in the future.Superior Cutting and FeedingThe JPM-13CS features an all-steel, precision-machined cutterhead (2-9/16-inch diameter) fitted with three full-width knives. The knives are retained by three-piece wedge-shaped gibs that allow for the installation of many molding-knife profiles without removing the planer blades. The center gib section makes installing most molding knives easy (2 inches wide and under).The planer/molder has two feed rates, with the high 20 FPM (feet per minute) setting used primarily for dimensioning wood when lots of material is being removed quickly. The 10 FPM speed is used for finish cuts when the smoothest possible surface is desired, and this slower feed rate is also used for molding operations.Rubber-covered infeed and outfeed rollers keep the stock moving at a consistent pace, and the rubber feed roller surface gets a good grip on the wood without marring the profiled surface of molded wood. Both of the feed rollers are easily adjustable to maintain their performance.Generously Sized, High-Quality TableThe cast-iron table lends plenty of heft and contact surface, measuring 19-1/4 inches long by 14 inches wide. The table has 6 inches of travel maintained by lead screws on either side and is driven by an easy-to-use hand crank on top of the machine. Handy metric and inch scales flank the infeed housing opening to make adjusting cut depth simple and accurate. It comes with an incorporated dust chute--so it's simple to hook up to a dust collector and keep the shop clean. Four lockable casters (not standard) make it easy to maneuver the tool in a tight shop. It's backed by a five-year limited warranty.

In every facet of our business we leverage the strengths of our global infrastructure to maximize the benefits of all three. From the Manufacturer This JET planer/molder features a sturdy cast-iron table, mounted on four precision-ground steel columns for reduced vibration and smooth feeding. It has fully adjustable rubber-coated infeed and outfeed rollers, with a 1-1/2-horsepower motor, which is fully enclosed, fan cooled, and is located at the base of the machine to protect it from wood chips and dust. The two matched V-belts deliver full power to the three-knife cutterhead, while the two-speed gearbox provides smooth molding and fast planing. The high-quality tool steel of the three steel knife sets will provide a superior finish. Adding to the ease of operation, all cutters under 2-inches in width may be installed without removing the planing knives. It has a 13-inch-wide and 6-1/8-inch-thick planing and molding capability. Review: Excellent step up from bench top planers... - I wanted to add a planer to my small garage shop, but I had limited space for it. I decided I didn't want a bench top planer so I looked for something in between those and the heavier duty (15" and up) models. For context I make custom doors and windows for historical/older homes. I havent used it to do any molding and have strictly used it to plane down rough stock after jointing two edges. It has performed perfectly after adjusting both internal infeed and outfeed rollers according to the manual. A little tip; go ahead and make the setup blocks and keep them for future adjustments. Also adjust the external support rollers (which are sold separately, but I highly recommend) with a good straight edge, and check them periodically. If either roller pair is off it will exaggerate snipe. Doing these setup steps properly will ensure that you get nice results. I suggest the external rollers because the table (not the cutter head) is moved up and down with each pass. If you plan to use one of your shop feed rollers you will need to continuously adjust it for every adjustment made at the planer. 4" dust collection is a must with this machine, although the airflow makes it operate at higher decibels. After now using it for almost a year I can say with confidence that it is a strong performer. I haven't even sharpened the knives and it produces an excellent finish, very little chatter or waves. I still send everything through the Jet 16-32 drum sander after it comes out of the planer, but I can use fine paper to get the desired finish. There is a spiral cutter head available for this unit, but I don't really see the need unless you work with figured/pattern woods. I really like the integrated locking casters for mobility, a must for a small shop. Its mobile, but its very solid/stable when working with long and heavy pieces. This is not going to outperform the 220V 15-20 inch planers on the market, but it will beat the pants off all the bench top models. Overall it fits nicely into a small niche between the two extremes. I can't comment on the molder functionality, but it is a nice feature to have for the future. Jet and Grizzly molder knives will fit this machine based on the limited research I did before I purchased mine.

I checked the alignment of the rollers which were set to factory specs. I readjusted the in feed and out feed rollers to provide more pressure. That improved performance but not entirely. ## Frequently Bought Together - JET 13-Inch Planer/Molder, Straight Knife Cutterhead, 1-1/2 HP, 115/230V 1Ph (Model JPM-13CS) - JET JPM-13-K Planer Blades (for JPM-13 Planer/Molder)(708366) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5667237-13-inch-planer-molder-3-hss-knives-1-1-2](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5667237-13-inch-planer-molder-3-hss-knives-1-1-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
