Comments:
This machine had been used in a High School agricultural shop and had sat unused for several years. I purchased it at least 15 years ago and built a very simple RPC to operate it as it was my first three phase machine. Other than sharpening, the addition of casters and a dust collecter chute the planer remains as purchased. It has 2hp 1725 three phase motor. The school wanted to dispose of it as it was considered unsafe due to lack of cutterhead guarding and the exposed rotating shaft on the gearbox.
