It's a combo. You can see the lifting handles and lock levers on the front. There's also no 5-in-1 combos lacking a planer, lol. And the ad clearly says "Jointer Planer Combo" in the title.

It’s a four post planer unlike the newer machines.
It has been refitted with an external starter which saves you time and effort.
Since the starter has capacitors in it, it’s a single phase machine, 230 volts.
If you buy it, get a photo of the saw/shaper nameplate so you have a serial number for parts.

Just for completeness' sake - I have a 2009-ish vintage CF731 combo machine with the jointer planer (green livery). It is a 16" model so not sure where the 12" came from. These are really nice machines but I have no idea whether purchasing a detached unit would carry a lot of headaches.

I always understood the CF731 to be a 12” machine (or actually 31cm), and the CF741 to be 16”.
I have owned a CF731 and now a BF6-31 and they are both 12” units.
