Kapex KS120 Miter Saw

Transporting the Saw

When The Kapex miter saw is collapsed for transport, it is

very well balanced and easily carried using the integrated

carrying handles.

1.

Unplug the saw and coil the power cord on the reel at

the rear of the saw.

WARNING! To reduce the risk of unexpectedly

starting the saw, make sure the saw is

unplugged.

2.

Pull the power trigger (without depressing the trigger

lock) and lower the motor head down. When the head
is in the down position, push in on the Head Lock Knob

(see the picture to the upper right).

3.

Push the motor head all the way to the rear of the saw
and tighten the Slide Lock Knob.

4.

Set the miter angle to 60° and push down on the miter
lock lever.

5.

Pick up the saw from the rear by grasping the two

handle points as shown below.

Dust Extraction

The Kapex saw can be connected to a dust extractor to

substantially reduce dust during operation. The dust port

swivels to either side, and accepts either a 27 or 36 mm
Festool hose. The 27 mm hose fits inside the dust port, or

the 36 mm hose fits over the outside of the dust port.

Note: For optimal dust extraction performance,

Festool recommends using a 36 mm hose.
