Switch on the jigsaw.
On a level surface, slide in the splinterguard
(not using your hand!) while the machine is
operating until it is flush with the front edge
of the saw table (speed setting 5). This cuts
into the splinterguard.
When it is worn, push the splinterguard
approx. 3 mm further to the rear and con
tinue using it.
To guarantee reliable operation of the
splinterguard, it must seal tightly on both
sides of the saw blade. A new splinter
guard should therefore be fitted after ev
ery saw blade change to guarantee splint
er-free cuts.
8.4 Changing the saw table
Open the change lever [1-9].
Remove the saw table downwards.
Assembly is performed in reverse se
quence to removal. Ensure that the saw
table is firmly seated in the guide.
Instead of the saw table, the WT-PS400 angle
table or ADT-PS400 base adapter can be instal
led at the support.
Never saw without the saw table, or one
of the other tables or adapters offered in
the Festool accessories range.
8.5 Extraction
WARNING
Health risk due to dust
Always work with an extractor.
Comply with national regulations.
The extraction adapter [5-3] allows jigsaws to
be connected to a dust extractor (hose diameter
27 mm).
Insert the extraction adapter in the rear
opening of the saw table so that the
hook [5-2] engages in the recess [5-1].
To remove the extraction adapter, press the
hook [5-2].
Due to the low power consumption of the
machine (low energy consumption), dust
extractors with an automatic switch-on
function will sometimes only start up when
the actual cut is made.
Set the dust extractor to continuous opera
tion for special applications (e.g. low stroke
rate, soft wood).
8.6 Adjusting the pendulum stroke
In order to saw different materials with the
proper rate of advance the pendulum stroke
can be adjusted. Set the required stroke via the
pendulum stroke switch [1-12]:
Position 0 = pendulum stroke disabled
Position 3 = maximum pendulum stroke
Recommended pendulum stroke setting
Softwood, chip board, wood fibreboard 1 - 3
Blockboard, plywood, plastic 1 - 2
Ceramics 0
Aluminium, non-ferrous metals 0 - 2
Steel, hardwood 0 - 1
8.7 Stroke rate control
Using the adjusting wheel [1-6], the stroke rate
can be continuously adjusted between 1500 and
3800 rpm (PSBC 420 EB: 1000–3800 rpm). This
enables you to optimise the cutting speed to
suit the respective material.
Automatic load detection is activated in posi
tion A: The stroke rate drops when idling and is
adjusted to the highest setting when the work
piece is introduced.
Recommended stroke rate (position of the ad
justing wheel)
Hard and soft wood, blockboard, ply
wood, chipboard A
Fibreboard 4–A
Plastic 3–A
Ceramic, aluminium, non-ferrous met
als 3–5
Steel 2–4
9 Working with the electric
power tool
CAUTION
Materials which produce a lot of dust
Damage to the machine due to the ingress of
dust, risk of injury
Do not work overhead.
When working on small or thin workpieces, al
ways use a stable base, or the CMS module (ac
cessory).
