inca jointer/planer

[helena]

Hi Dave - I recently accquired an Inca Planer thicknesser but unfortunately the gear assembly is all missing I have the flat drive belt and the worm gear but anything in between is not there. I believe the model I have the the equivalent of the 570. I badly need a photo of the gear asembly in place to see what parts I need to order as I have been told that I can now get these from Incamachines.com in France. Can you please, please help?

I bought the Inca Major Table Saw new back in the 1980's but I thought that the Jointer/Planer seemed too lightweight for my needs.

I have a Inca 400 series jointer/planner.  It is 8 5/8 wide and the planner is manual feed.  I didn't care for that much so I use an old Ryobi AP-10 planner now (10 inches wide).  I still use the Inca occasionally as a jointer.  It works fine but the tables aren't very long making it hard to put a straight edge on a long board.  I usually use my tracksaw and used to use my table saw instead.  But if I need to flatten a board, the Inca works fine.
