Description

The Laguna JX|8 Jointer is loaded with highly desirable features to make jointing safer and more enjoyable. The JX|8 is available in 2 versions, the JX|8 QuadTec which runs on 110 Volt producing 1.75 HP and the JX|8 ShearTec which runs on 220 Volt producing 3.0 HP. 

The JX|8 Quadtec uses a perpendicular inserted cutter that utilizes 5 inserts per cutter face to reduce cutting force while still allowing for smooth sharp facing. The JX|8 ShearTec uses a helical cutter profile with 9 inserts per cutting edge. The extra inserts on the cutting face require higher motor power but can be handle faster board feeds while still producing exceptional surface finish. 

Key Features:

JX|8 QuadTec

  • Parallelogram Table Adjustments – Table depth adjustments travel along an arc to keep the same distance to the cutterhead through its travel
  • Emergency “Knee-Stop” – The new knee stop uses a body-length bar at knee height to shut off the JX jointer. This important safety feature allows the machine operator to stop the machine quickly at any position along the front of the machine while keeping hands on the workpiece
  • New Ergonomic Machine Body – The new JX Series machine body has been redesigned with a “toe-kick” to allow the user to position themself closer to the machine tables and to move safer and easier along the length of the machine
  • In-feed Support Roller – Infeed tables are now fitted with pull-out support roller to help support longer materials
  • QuadTec I Cutterhead – The all-new QuadTec I cutterhead comes as standard equipment on the new JX-8 QuadTec I The QuadTec I produces an amazing surface finish on all woods including difficult hardwoods. The QuadTec I uses 4-sided carbide insert knives that are quieter and much more durable compared to straight HSS knives. The 4-sided knives can be rotated for a new cutting edge without the need for a knife setting jig
  • ShearTec II Cutterhead – The ShearTec II cuttherhead comes as standard equipment on JX|8 ShearTec II Jointer. The ShearTec II is a 6-row carbide insert cutterhead that produces a superior surface finish on all woods including challenging hardwoods. The ShearTec II knives and fasteners have a T-step design to maximize clamping force on the knives preventing knife cracking and chatter. The 4-sided carbide insert knives produce a shear cut for flawless results. The ShearTec II cutterhead has deep grooves that make the cutterhead very quiet and improve shaving ejection. The 4-sided knives can be rotated for a new cutting edge without need for a knife setting jig.
  • Built-In Wheels – No need to purchase a separate mobility kit
  • Cast-Iron Tables and Fence

Warnings
California Proposition 65 Warning

What is Proposition 65?

California's Proposition 65, officially known as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, requires businesses to provide warnings before knowingly exposing anyone to chemicals listed by the State of California as known to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

The list currently includes over 900 chemicals. A Proposition 65 warning does not necessarily mean a product is unsafe — it simply means that one or more listed chemicals may be present, and California law requires that we notify you.

 

Which products are affected?

Some of the products we sell may contain or expose customers to one or more Proposition 65-listed chemicals. Out of an abundance of caution, we apply this warning broadly to our product catalog when purchased by customers located in California.

We encourage all California customers to review this notice before making a purchase. If you have specific questions about a particular product, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly at sales@vanguardtoolsupply.com
