is interrupted completely. After removal of the
blockage or switching on again, the machine is
operational once again.
5.4 Temperature protection
If the motor temperature becomes too high, the
power supply and speed are reduced. The ma-
chine then only runs with reduced power to enable
rapid cooling by means of the motor ventilation.
After cooling down, the machine accelerates again
automatically.
5.5 Brake
After switching-off the tool, the saw blade is elec-
tronically brought to a standstill in 1.5 – 2 seconds
(only for 230 V - 240 V confi guration).
5.6 Restart protection
The built-in undervoltage release prevents that
the machine restarts on its own in the continu-
ous operation mode following a power cut. In this
case, the machine must fi rst be switched off and
then on again.
6 Machine settings
Prior to any setting, maintenance or re-
pair, pull the mains plug!
To make setting easier, the saw unit can be locked
in the front position (Fig. 5): pull the saw unit
forwards as far as it will go and place the switch
(5.1) in the lower position.
The machine must not be used in the front
position!
6.1 Cutting depth
The cutting depth can be set steplessly (0 - 50 mm
with 90° position of the saw blade) by turning the
crank handle (5.4).
6.2 Mitre
The saw blade can be pivoted between 0° and
45°:
- Open the rotary knob (5.3).
- Set the mitre using the scale (5.6) by turning the
handle (5.2).
- Close the rotary knob (5.3).
For exact fi tting work (relief cutting on the bor-
dering), the saw blade can be pivoted 2° beyond
the two end positions. To do so, the button (5.5)
is pressed in the end position; the saw blade can
then be pivoted up to -2° or 47°. On pivoting back,
both end positions are active once again.
6.3 Changing tools
Safety Instructions Fast-Fix Tension Nut
(see Fig. 7 A).
After tensioning, close the handle bow.
Only tighten or loosen the Fast-Fix Tension
Nut by hand. Under no circumstances use
the handle bow with aid of screwdrivers,
pliers, or other tools for tightening or
loosening.
If the nut cannot be loosened by hand, only
use a pin-type face spanner for support.
Never continue to use the Fast-Fix nut,
in case the handle bow is loose or dam-
aged.
Due to the special shank, only the saw
blades offered by Festool for this machine
may be used.
- Open the locking mechanism (1.3) and remove
the bench insert (1.2) upwards
- Open the locking mechanism (6.1) and swing the
saw blade cover (6.2) down. This automatically
locks the tool spindle
- Shift the lever (7.5) and turn clockwise (left-hand
thread) to open the Fast-Fix clamp (7.4)
- Change the tool. In doing so, bear in mind:
• The Fast-Fix clamp (7.4), fl ange (8.1) and saw
blade must be clean
• The direction of rotation on the saw blade (7.6)
must match the direction of rotation of the
machine (7.7)
• Place the saw blade on the centre of the fl ange
(8.1) and turn until the contour of the fl ange
and the saw blade hole lock.
- Firmly tighten the Fast-Fix clamp (7.4) anticlock-
wise; shift the lever (7.5)
- Swing the saw blade cover (6.2) upwards and
close the locking mechanism (6.1)
- Insert the bench insert with the rear edge fi rst
(see Fig. 9) and close the locking mechanism
(1.3).
6.4 Setting the riving knife
The spacer wedge (7.1) is to be set in such a way
that the gap to the chuck of the saw blade is 3 to
5 mm.
- Use the Allen key (6.3) to remove the screw (7.3)
and take it out together with the clamping ele-
ment (7.2),
- After both of the screws (8.3) have been opened,
the guide element (8.2) can be shifted vertically
to set the gap between the spacer wedge and
saw blade.
- After completion of the setting, fi t the spacer
