SHOP FOX W1863 15 inch spiral head planer
Planing creates uniform thickness and flatness in wood pieces, making them easier to work with and enhancing their overall quality.
The 15", 4-row helical cutterhead comes complete with 52 indexable carbide inserts that can each be rotated three times to expose new, sharp cutting edges.
The inserts sit at a slight angle to the for smooth shearing cuts, minimized tearout, a smoother finish, and operating at lower noise levels.
A 230-volt, 3 horsepower motor powers through cuts up to 3/32" deep at full width or 1/8" deep on material up to 6" wide.
The 2-speed gearbox allows you to choose between 16 and 28 FPM for a smooth finish or high-production feed rate.
Other features include a pedestal-mounted switch, precision-ground cast-iron infeed and outfeed tables, and large board return rollers for efficient production.
Like all Shop Fox planers, the W1863 comes with a 2-year warranty which covers parts and assures the unit is free from factory defects. (Consumables are not covered by the warranty.)
The W1863 manual was written by our U.S.-based Technical Documentation Department and is packed with useful information. The complete and easy-to-read manual makes it easier to assemble and maintain your sander.
The Customer Service and Technical Support Teams are also U.S.-based. Parts for the planer may be available online and shipped from the parts warehouse in Springfield, MO.
