Planing Applications.
This planer is capable of leaving a smooth surface while removing a full
9/64" of material from hard maple in a single pass. Use the optional bench
unit with the planer for working with smaller pieces. By freeing up both
hands, the workpiece is easier to control. A spiral blade makes chatter-free
cuts that are ready to glue or finish without the need to sand, and blade
changes are simple, given that there is only one self-aligning blade.


Near Total Chip Extraction - Efficient chip extraction with left or right side mounting.

Rotary Handle Depth Adjustment - The front handle doubles as a depth control knob with a cut depth up to 3-9/64"

Single Knife Cutterhead - Spiral, metal carbide design with replaceable knife for a smooth, "chatter-free" cut.
The special design of the cutterhead allows it to cut flush with the side
of the tool, allowing you to make unlimited rabbet cuts on wood edges,
and the built-in groove on the base plate simplifies chamfer cuts. Multiple
cutting heads are available for creating different rustic effects, and as with
most Festool tools, dust extraction ports are incorporated to make cleanup
fast and easy.
