JET JWS-25X Shaper
The JET JWS-25X Shaper was designed to pack the
most sought after shaper features in a space saving
25”-wide by 25 ½”-deep and 39 ½”-tall package. The
liberal use of our cast iron technology, a strong 3HP
motor, full-featured fence and a tough undercarriage
mean we can cover the JET JWS-25X Shaper with our
5 year warranty!
Power
The JET JWS-25X Shaper comes with our powerful
3HP, 230V, 1 phase motor. All JET motors are rated
using a continuous duty cycle rather than the “peak”
or “max developed” estimations some manufacturers still use. A continuous duty cycle
gives the most accurate depiction of the power a motor delivers during use, not in spikes
or for brief periods. Our full 3HP motor means spindle RPM is far more stable and
consistent with virtually all cutter profiles.
The JET JWS-25X Shaper packs all of
your favorite features into a space and
money saving package.
The motor is controlled
by a pair of switches on
the front of the base
cabinet. Because the
JET JWS-25X Shaper
motor is reversible, we
added a three position
switch that allows
selecting forward, off
or reverse.
The magnetic
pushbutton switch set
mounted on the front of
the base cabinet is
designed to protect the motor from potentially damaging voltage variations. A magnetic
switch also has a safety feature in that once the power goes out, it will not allow the JET
JWS-25X Shaper to restart on its own when the power comes back on. After the power is
restored, the operator must push the On button to restart the machine, avoiding
potentially dangerous surprises.
The powerful 3HP motor (left) and its mount are easily accessible through the side
door. The major controls are on the front of the cabinet (right), including the
magnetic switch that protect the motor and you.
