Install an upstream residual-current circuit
breaker (FIG, PRCD).
Connect the machine to a suitable dust extractor.
Regularly remove dust deposits from the motor
housing.
Use a aluminium saw blade.
Close the viewing window/chipguard.
– When sawing panels, they must be lubricated
with petroleum but thin-walled profiles (up to 3
mm) can be sawed without lubrication.
6Operation
Always switch the machine off before con-
necting or disconnecting the mains power
cable!
Connecting and detaching the mains power cable
[1-11]
see Fig.
[2]
.
Slide the switch-on lock
[1-6]
upwards and press
the on/off switch
[1-7]
(press = ON / release = OFF).
Pressing the switch-on lock unlocks the
plunging mechanism. The saw unit can then
be moved downwards. This causes the saw
blade to emerge from the protective cover.
7 Settings
7.1 Electronics
The machine (TS 55 REBQ/ TS 55 REQ) features
full-wave electronics with the following properties:
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up en-
sures that the machine starts up jolt-free.
Constant speed
The motor speed remains constant through elec-
tronic control to ensure a uniform cutting speed
even when under load.
Speed control
You can regulate the speed steplessly within the
speed range using the adjusting wheel
[1-10]
(see
Technical data). This enables you to optimise the
cutting speed to suit the surface (see table 1).
Temperature cut-out
The machine power supply is limited and the speed
reduced if the motor exceeds a certain tempera-
ture. The machine continues operating at reduced
power to allow the ventilator to cool the motor
quickly. If the machine temperature exceeds the
maximum permitted value for longer periods, the
machine switches off completely after approx. 40
seconds and can only be switched on again once the
motor has cooled sufficiently.
Current limiting
Current limiting prevents permissibly high current
consumption under extreme overload, which can
lead to a decrease in the motor speed. The motor
immediately restarts after the load is removed.
Brake
The TS 55 REBQ is fitted with an electronic brake.
When the saw is switched off, the brake stops the
saw blade electronically within approx. 2 seconds.
7.2 Adjusting the cutting depth
The cutting depth can be adjusted to between 0 – 55
mm on the cutting depth stop
[3-1]
:
The sawing unit can now be pressed down to the set
cutting depth.
7.3 Adjusting the cutting angle
between 0° and 45°:
Unscrew the rotary knobs
[4-1]
.
Swivel the sawing unit to the desired cutting an-
gle
[4-2]
.
Tighten the rotary knobs
[4-1]
.
Wear protective goggles.
WARNING
Unauthorised voltage or frequency!
Risk of accident
The mains voltage and the frequency of the pow-
er source must correspond with the specifica-
tions on the machine's name plate.
In North America, only Festool machines with
the voltage specifications 120 V/60 Hz may be
used.
WARNING
Risk of injury, electric shock
Always pull the mains plug out of the socket be-
fore performing any type of work on the ma-
chine!
Cutting depth without guide rails
max. 55 mm
Cutting depth with guide rail FS
max. 51 mm
