I bought this Yates American Hollow Chisel Mortiser from Freeport Woodworks in Freeport,
Maine yesterday for $600 and they threw in a Hobbs single end tenoner, a door clamp and two 3 phase,5 h.p. motors.The mortiser is 5 h.p., 220 volts,3 phase,direct drive.It has the foot pedal for lowering the chisel and bit to your work piece.The mortiser is in excellent condition and is in perfect working order.It came with six different size bits and chisels.
