3 Power supply and start-up
The mains voltage must correspond to
the specifi cation on the rating plate.
To momentarily perform work within the overload
range, a fuse of at least 10 amps is required for a
230 V power supply.
Switch (1.5) serves as an On/Off switch (press =
ON, release = OFF).
Sliding the button (1.4) forwards releases the
plunge-cut lock. The saw can now be adjusted to
the preset cutting depth.
When the machine is lifted, the sawing unit
springs back into the starting position.
4 Machine settings
Always remove the power supply plug
from the socket before carrying out any
work on the machine.
4.1 Cutting depth
The cutting depth can be set at 0 – 47 mm:
- Open the rotary knob (1.1).
- Set the stop (1.3) to the required cutting depth
while reading the scale,
- tighten rotary knob (1.1).
4.2 Cutting angle
The sawing unit can be swivelled between 0° and
45°:
- Unscrew the brush ring (3.2),
- Loosen the front and rear clamps (1.8, 3.6),
- Set to the required cutting angle while reading
the scale (3.5),
- Close both clamps (1.8, 3.6) once more.
4.3 Changing the saw blade
Only Festool saw blades (435450) should
be fi tted to the AXT 50 LA. The use of other
saw blades is not permitted.
The cutting geometry of the saw blade (435450)
has been adapted to meet special requirements
for cutting fi bre cement panels and similar ma-
terials. When sharpening blades, remember that
the teeth should have a special cutting angle.
Procedure
- Loosen screw (3.8) with Allen key (1.6),
- Remove the dust extraction hood (3.1) up-
wards,
- Set the cutting depth to approx. 15 mm and push
down the machine until the stop is reached,
- Insert the pins supplied into the two holes (3.3)
on the clamping fl ange,
- Unscrew the bolt (3.4) using the Allen key
(1.6),
- Remove saw blade,
- Clean fl ange,
- Insert new saw blade. Warning: The direction of
rotation of the saw blade and the machine must
be the same.
- Tighten screw (3.4),
- Attach the dust extraction hood (3.1) once
again.
4.4 Dust extraction
Always connect the machine to a dust
extractor.
You can connect a Festool extractor with an ex-
tractor hose diameter of 36 mm to the extractor
connector (1.2).
The brush ring (3.2) fi lls the gap between the
machine and the workpiece and enhances the
effi ciency of the extractor.
5 Working with the machine
Always secure the workpiece in such a
manner that it cannot move while being
sawed.
The machine must always be held with
both hands by the designated handles.
Always push the machine forwards, never
pull the machine backwards towards
you.
Only guide the machine against the work-
piece when it is switched on.
You should also wear a dust mask for
work which produces dust.
Sawing with a guide rail
Fitting an AUP Festool saw guide makes saw guid-
ance easier and safer and ensures more accurate,
cleaner cuts.
The AUP saw guide is available in two lengths:
AUP 1750 mm Order no. 482543
AUP 3000 mm Order no. 482545
Working procedure
- Place the guide rail on the workpiece and align
it along the relevant cutting line.
- Use two clamps to secure the guide rail to the
workpiece and prevent it from slipping.
- Place the machine on the guide rail. Depending
on the cutting angle, the machine is slotted ei-
ther into the inner guide groove (2.1) for 90° cuts
or the outer guide groove (2.2) for 45° cuts.
- Switch on the machine (1.5).
