Thicknesser YATO YT-82147 1250W woodworking thickness planer 1250 W

YATO YT-82147 1250W thicknesser is a woodworking machine designed to plane and dimension timber for carpentry, furniture making and renovation tasks. Equipped with a 1250 W motor, the tool provides consistent material removal and helps achieve uniform board thickness and improved surface finish for accurate joinery and assembly operations. The design focuses on stable feeding, clear depth adjustment and a compact footprint suitable for small workshops or on-site jobs.

Advantages

The thicknesser offers reliable power for handling typical softwood and many hardwood tasks while maintaining a steady cutting action. Simple adjustments for cutting depth and feed allow precise results, and the machine’s construction reduces vibration for a smoother surface finish. Its combination of motor power and cutterhead speed supports efficient stock removal while preserving workpiece quality.

Suitable for

• Planing and thicknessing of boards for furniture components
• Preparing timber for cabinets, shelving and joinery
• Trimming rough-sawn planks to uniform thickness
• On-site renovation and carpentry where a portable bench machine is required

Key specifications

• Motor power: 1250 W
• Application: thicknessing and planing of timber
• Suitable materials: softwoods and common hardwoods
• Adjustable cutting depth for controlled material removal
• Compact bench-mounted design for workshop or site use

How to use

Set the machine on a stable surface and secure the work area. Adjust the cutting depth according to the required final thickness and set the feed rate if applicable. Feed the board against the cutterhead following the manufacturer’s directional arrows and recommended feed direction, maintaining steady pressure and even support at entry and exit to avoid snipe. Make multiple light passes rather than a single deep cut to achieve a smooth finish and to reduce strain on the motor and blades. After planing, switch off the machine and wait for the cutterhead to stop before removing workpieces or performing adjustments.

Usage recommendations

Use sharp knives or carbide cutters and perform regular maintenance such as cleaning dust from the table and extractor ports. Wear appropriate eye, ear and respiratory protection when planing timber, and use dust extraction or a collection bag to reduce airborne wood dust. For consistent results, allow stock to acclimatise to the workshop environment and make test passes on scrap pieces before working on final components.
