5.2 Machine-related safety instructions
– Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
because the cutter may contact its own cord.
Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
– The tools must be rated for at least the speed
marked on the power tool. Tools running over
rated speed can fly apart and cause injury.
– Use the machine only with the guide frame
mounted. The guide frame protects the user
against broken-off parts of the jointer bit and ac-
cidental contact with the jointer bit.
– Only cutters provided by Festool for this pur-
pose may be mounted on the power tool. The
use of other cutters is prohibited due to the in-
creased risk of injury.
– Never use dull or damaged mortising bits. Dull
or damaged mortising bits can cause the tool to
lurch sideways unexpectedly and lead to a loss of
control of the power tool.
– Do not resharpen cutters more than twice. Re-
sharpened cutters may affect the precision of the
cutting results.
– Do not operate the tool if the spring-loaded
fence does not return to its forward rest posi-
tion. The fence covers the mortising bit and pre-
vents accidental contact. If the slides of the fence
do not move freely, have the tool serviced imme-
diately.
5.3 Emission levels
Levels determined in accordance with EN 60745 are
typically:
Vibration emission value a
h
(vector sum for three
directions) and uncertainty K measured in accor-
dance with EN 60745:
The specified emissions values (vibration, noise)
– are used to compare machines.
– They are also used for making preliminary esti-
mates regarding vibration and noise loads during
operation.
– They represent the primary applications of the
power tool.
Increase possible for other applications, with other
insertion tools or if not maintained adequately. Take
note of idling and downtimes of machine!
6 Operation
Always switch the machine off before con-
necting or disconnecting the mains power
cable!
Connecting and detaching the mains power cable
[1-17] see Fig. [2].
The switch [1-4] is an on/off switch (I = ON, 0 =
OFF).
 Peel off the protective film from the bottom of
the guide frame [3-4].
 Remove the transport safety device [1-18].

7.1 Electronics
The machine features full-wave electronics with
the following features:
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 electron-
ic control to ensure a uniform cutting speed even

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!
