If you are trying to remove too much material at one time, this will definetly happen. Try removing less material per pass.

SOURCE: Ryobi AP12 Thickness Planer---rubber feed rollers do not rotate
It is fixable if you are technically competent. All parts are still available online. It could be one of two problems:
1 - The rollers are driven by two gear & chain mechanisms on the height adjuster side of the unit. I did have a drive chain break once.
2 - If it isn't that than the gearbox has cracked / gear stripped under the torque load. This is also fixable, each individual gear and the gearbox housing are still available (10-09), but it requires substaintial teardown.
As you disassemble the unit just be careful once you remove the crossover height adjuster shaft - you don't want to turn one lifter by itself and have the planer higher on one side. It really is a simple teardown, just lots of parts. If you like the planer it is worth it; parts are cheap. If you are like me, you enjoy tearing stuff down to see how it's made and you hate throwing out $200 tools because only one little part broke!
SOURCE: I bought a mastercraft planer
I did some searching and it looks like if you call 1-800-689-9928 they will be able to help you out. Let them know the date code, and its size. I really doubt they made more that one 12" planer that year. If that date code is like DeWalt or Delta, that should mean the 7th week of 1999.
