the motor and sends the dust to
the 4"-diameter port.
An on/off switch is mounted to a mast that puts it within easy reach while operating the PJ-

Also contained within the base cabinet is an effective dust evacuation chute. The chute runs from
under the cutterhead to a 4"-diameter outlet fitting located near the floor on the end of the base

and 20 ½"-tall, the base cabinet puts the PJ-882HH 8" Parallelogram

The base cabinet also houses the motor and its adjustable mount for
adjusting belt tension when necessary. A door on the rear of the base
cabinet provides ample access to the motor and its mount. All of the
wiring and electronic components are also housed within the base
cabinet, including the magnetic starter.
