Stated differently, not directly comparable
The two makers put these figures in different terms, so the rows cannot be read as a match or a difference from these pages.
- Motor: JWDS-1632: totally enclosed fan cooled, induction, capacitor start. JWDS-2550: 1-3/4 HP (1.3 kW).
- Noise level: JWDS-1632: 63 dB at 100cm; 66 dB at 50cm. JWDS-2550: 69 dB at 100cm; 70.5 dB at 50cm.
One-sided rows: only JET's cited pages give horsepower, voltage, phase, minimum stock thickness, feed rate, sanding drum or spindle, abrasive and dimensions; only JET's cited pages give cord length. A missing figure is not a zero, so the JWDS-1632 and JWDS-2550 cannot be compared on those rows from these pages.
