Works great and great service.

Perfect for my 60HH. Read about others where it broke but mine came in a double pack. One of the straight reels had a broken lock handle upon arrival. I contacted Powermatic and they immediately sent me a new pen with no questions asked. Works great and great service.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Protection

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Works but not strong enough for anything but the smallest boards

it wobbles under almost any load making it impossible to adjust the height of the feed/unload roller. Like other customers, I have to put blocks of wood underneath to keep the jointer from tipping over when a 6 foot 2x6 is placed on top. Can this be avoided? Of course, but then I spend time on work, and not on what I want to do - combining boards, assembling furniture.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • It's OK

Heavy Duty - Perfect Fit - Works Great - Worth the Price

Highly Recommended Get the Powermatic Mobile Base 2042376. It was made specifically for and fits my 8" Powermatic Jointer 1610086K 60HH (bolt head). Perfect This is hard work Fits perfect Works great Worth the price Extremely strong base making it easy to move this heavy jointer around my small workshop Only downside it took 3 tries to get one that didn't was damaged No packaging in the box = broken locking knobs / multiple scratches.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • No Performance

Not the gold standard

Pros: The base looks good because it follows the contour of the planer's base and maneuvers well on a bare floor. paint on it. Advertises metal wheels - they are plastic. The wheel lock knobs are fragile and one of mine is already broken. Complaints about the bouncy front wheel are true - I added height adjustable feet on that end to stabilize it when it's not moving. This base will do the trick, but it doesn't reflect well what the Powermatic should be.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Useless features

The frame is fine, wheels and locks are cheap

The frame is quite decent and goes well with my 60s. However, the wheel lock mechanism is quite cheap. I would have expected better from Port Cargo Equipment. The rear wheels are locked by screwing the bolt into the wheels. The screw heads have a cheap and fragile plastic cap. Mine arrived broken, but I'm not returning it because of that. If you don't move your machines regularly, this base might be fine. However, if you move them regularly I would suggest looking elsewhere or planning to…

Pros
  • A lot of positive emotions
Cons
  • Not fashionable

This is for 60C and 60HH

Received today and it fits my 60HH jointer perfectly. Not sure why the product listing says 60B. Part 2042376 is definitely the basis for the 60C and 60HH models. The only complaint about the design. The two small wheels on the right side are stable. There's only one wheel on the left, however, and it's mounted on a metal bracket that sags under the 400-pound weight of the dresser. I don't think it will break, but the thin rebound is annoying when working with a jointer. The base still serves…

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Weight

Such a poor idea of ​​quality for the Powermatic brand

As mentioned by several others, shipping the unit is a big issue. The original box does not include any packing material and Revain will not ship it in a different box to provide additional support. My device arrived with one of the wheels sticking out of the box. The wheel lock was broken too, but it was originally made out of fairly flimsy plastic. Wheel security system in Mickey Mouse quality. The finish of the unit is ridiculous. As another reviewer mentioned, I agree that this looks like…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Can't remember

Will not fit all Mustard 60B Bow Dressers.

This mobile base is very well made and far outperforms most cheap ones available (for almost the same price). All three wheels lock well and I had no trouble moving it while in use. It's even fully assembled and ready to go. It wasn't until the three of us pressed a jointer against it that I discovered the problem that prompted me to remove the sprocket - my Powermatic 60B won't fit on it. I think it was pretty generous of me to downgrade it just one star, but I knew Revane would take it if I…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Only available in black
