6.1 Transport

Never carry or lift the machine by the

movable pivot guard (1.7).

For transportation, the saw unit should be locked

with the transport safety device (1.1) pushed down

and the pivot guard (1.7) closed.

Lift and carry the machine by the hand grip (1.6)

or by the saw table (1.8).

6.2 Mounting the machine

Place the machine on an even ﬂ oor or use screw

clamps (illustration 1) to secure the machine on a

level, stable base (e.g. bench). The machine must

not move while work is in progress.

6.3 Changing tools

Risk of accidents

• Actuate the spindle lock only after the saw blade

has come to rest.

• The saw blade becomes very hot during opera-

tion; do not touch it before it has cooled down.

• Always wear protective gloves during tool

change due to the risk of injury from the sharp

tool cutters.

– Press the spindle lock (2.1).

– Open the screw (2.3) with the enclosed hexagon

wrench (left-hand thread!).

– Remove the clamping ﬂ ange (2.4).

– Swivel the pivot guard (2.6) all the way back.

– Remove the saw blade.

– Clean all parts before installing them (saw

blade, ﬂ anges, screw).

– Place the saw blade on the tool spindle.

Ensure that the directions of rotation of

the saw blade (2.5) and machine (2.2)

correspond.

– Place the clamping ﬂ ange (2.4) on the tool spin-

dle, ensuring that there is a positive ﬁ t and the

position is correct.

– Tighten the screw (2.3); tightening torque ap-

prox. 20 Nm.

– Check whether the saw blade rotates freely

before switching on the machine.

6.4 Dust extraction

Harmful/toxic dusts can be produced dur-

ing your work (e.g. lead-containing paint,

some types of wood and metal). Contact

with these dusts, especially inhaling

them, can represent a hazard for operat-

ing personnel or persons in the vicinity.

• Comply with the safety regulations that apply in

your country.

• Connect the electric power tool to a suitable

extraction system.

• To protect your health, wear a P2 protective

mask.

Before initial use of the machine, secure the

enclosed chip catcher (8.1) by sliding it onto the

mount (8.2).

Connect a Festool dust extractor with

an extractor hose diameter of 36 mm or

27 mm (36 mm recommended due to the

reduced risk of clogging) to the extractor

connector.

6.5 Setting sliding fence

– Open the rotary knobs (3.1).

– Push the sliding fence (3.3) as near as possible

to the saw blade but without touching it.

– Close the rotary knobs again.

6.6 Setting cutting angle

– Place the adjustable square (4.2) at the original

angle (e.g. corner of room).

– Close the screw (4.1).

– Open both clamping levers (3.2).

– Transfer the original angle to the saw by placing

the adjustable square on the saw table and then

positioning both pivotable sliding fences ﬂ ush

against the adjustable square.

– Close both clamping levers (3.2).
