Emission levels

Levels determined in accordance with EN 61029
are typically:
Sound pressure level
Noise level
Measuring uncertainty allowance
Wear ear protection.
Measured acceleration
The emission values specifi ed (vibration, noise)
were measured in accordance with the test con-
ditions stipulated in EN 61029 and are intended
for machine comparisons. They are also used for
making preliminary estimates regarding vibration
and noise loads during operation.
The emission values specifi ed refer to the main
applications for which the power tool is used. If
the electric power tool is used for other applica-
tions, with other tools or is not maintained suf-
fi ciently prior to operation, however, the vibration
and noise load may be higher when the tool is
used. Take into account any machine idling times
and downtimes to estimate these values more
accurately for a specifi ed time period. This may
signifi cantly reduce the load during the machine
operating period.

Commissioning

Warning
• Observe the mains voltage: The voltage and
frequency of the power source must comply with
the specifi cations on the machine's identifi ca-
tion plate.
• In North America, only Festool machines with
the voltage specifi cations 120 V/60 Hz may be
used.
Prior to initial operation:
– Remove the transport safety device (4.4) from
the guide rod.
On/Off switch
– Press the on/off switch (1.2) as far as possible
to unlock the saw unit and the pivot guard.
– Press the switch-on lock (1.3).
– Press the on/off switch (1.2) all the way in to
start the machine.
– Release the on/off switch again to switch off the
machine.

Adjustments

Always pull the plug out of the socket
before performing any type of work on
the machine.
KS 120 EB only: Replace the laser warning sticker
(3.1) with the relevant accompanying warning
sticker in your language.
88 dB(A)
7.1
101 dB(A)
Securing the machine (transport position)
K = 3 dB
– Press the on/off switch (4.1).
– Swivel the saw unit downwards until it reaches
the fence.
– Press the lock (4.2). The saw unit now remains
< 2.5 m/s²
in the lower position.
– Tighten the rotary knob (4.3) to secure the saw
unit in the rear position.
– Wind up the mains cable into the cable holder
(5.5) before transporting.
– Stow away the Allen key (5.4) and the bevel (5.3)
(KS 120 EB only) in the holders provided.
Carry the machine by the edge of the saw table
(5.2) and the handle (5.5) in the cable holder.
Unlocking the machine (working position)
– Push the saw unit down slightly and remove the
transport safety device (4.2).
– Swivel the saw unit upwards.
– Unscrew the rotary knob (4.3).
7.2
Before using the machine, set up on a level, stable
work surface (e.g. the underframe UG-KAPEX, the
multifunction table MFT or a worktop).
The following assembly options are available:
Fastening: Secure the machine on the work sur-
face using four screws. Use the holes (6.1) on the
four support points on the saw table.
Clamps: Secure the machine on the work surface
using four clamps. The fl at surfaces (6.2) on the
four saw table support points are used as clamp-
ing surfaces.
Clamping set (for MFT): Secure the machine on
the Festool multifunction table MFT using the
clamping set (6.4, 494693). Use the two screw
holes (6.3).
Underframe UG-KAPEX
Secure the machine on the underframe as de-
scribed in the assembly instructions enclosed
with the underframe.
7.3
• Always pull the mains plug out of the socket
before changing blades.
