If you're looking to spend a little more on a high-end jointer, you'll certainly get your money's worth with the G9860ZX 12 in. x 80 in. Z Series Jointer. This professional jointer is loaded with industrial features, such as precision-ground cast-iron parallelogram table adjustment, twin V-belt drive and a heavy-duty cast-iron base with noise dampening system. For the ultimate in precise table height adjustments, the close tolerance, precision-ground cast-iron infeed and outfeed tables are effortless adjusted through the handwheel controls. The G9860ZX combines a powerful 3 HP motor with a spiral cutterhead for unmatched finish and long-lasting cutting-edge durability compared to a machine with straight knives. No need to sharpen the blades every time they get dull or nicked. The 84 indexable carbide inserts can be rotated up to 3 times for a new sharp edge. Lastly, a jointer this size can save additional time and money by transforming unusable "cupped" lumber into perfectly flat stock.
