Changing Tools - Festool CARVEX PS 420 EBQ Guide D'utilisation

The extraction adapter [4-3] allows jigsaws to be
connected to a dust extractor (hose diameter 27
mm).

Insert the extraction adapter into the rear open-
ing of the saw table so that the hook [4-2] en-
gages in the [4-1] recess.

To remove the extraction adapter, press the
hook [4-2].
 Due to the low power consumption of the ma-
chine (low energy consumption), dust extractors
with an automatic switch-on function will some-
times only start up when the actual cut is made.

Set the dust extractor to continuous operation
for special applications (e.g. low stroke rate,
soft wood).

Risk of injury

Do not use insert tools that are blunt or defec-
tive.

Wear protective gloves.
Deformed or cracked saw blades and saw
blades with blunt or broken cutting edges
must not be used.
Selecting saw blade
Only use saw blades with a T-shank. The
saw blade should not be longer than that re-
quired for the intended cut. To ensure safe
guidance, during the cut the saw blade should
emerge at the bottom of the workpiece with each
stroke.

tool saw blade S 105/4 FSG.

Slide the saw blade [5-4] into the opening [5-2]
as far as the stop with its teeth in the cutting di-
rection.

Turn the saw blade [5-4] clockwise approx. 30°.

remove the saw base (see chapter ) before in-
serting the saw blade.
