Item Description:
Seller assumes all responsibility for this listing.

Selling a Yates-American J18 18" thickness planer, serial number B-14250.

The machine appears complete and has been stored indoors. I do not have 3-phase power available, so I have not run or tested it.

I have personally verified the following:

Cutterhead rotates freely by hand
Table raises and lowers smoothly through its full range of travel
Feed roller turns freely
Cutterhead, knives, and pressure bar appear complete
Original Yates-American 3 HP motor is installed
Original magnetic push-button controls are present
Original top hood/safety guard is included
No obvious cracked or repaired castings that I could find

The cast iron table and cutterhead have light surface oxidation from storage only. The machine appears to have had cosmetic paint touch-ups at some point in its life but presents well overall.

Motor data:

3 HP
220 Volt
3 Phase
60 Cycle
1800 RPM

Buyers are welcome to inspect the machine before purchase.

Additional photos available upon request.

Thanks for looking.
