Sawing Along The Scribe Mark; Sawing Cut-Outs (Plunge Cuts); Cutting Sections - Festool TS 55 FEQ Notice D'utilisation D'origine

English
During work
– When working, always hold the power tool
with both hands on the handles [1-4]. This
is a prerequisite for precise work and is es­
sential for plunge-cutting. Plunge into the
workpiece slowly and evenly.
– Only guide the power tool towards the
workpiece when it is switched on.
– Always push the saw forwards [8-1], and
never towards yourself.
– Adapt the infeed speed to prevent the cut­
ters on the saw blade from overheating and
prevent plastic materials from melting dur­
ing cutting. The harder the material to be
sawn, the lower the feed speed needs to be.
– Do not work with the machine if the elec­
tronics are defective, because this may lead
to excessive speeds. You can tell if the
electronics are defective if there is no
smooth start-up or if it is not possible to
regulate the speed.
– Make sure that the guard completely sur­
rounds the saw blade before placing the
saw on the worktop or on the ground.

Sawing cut-outs (plunge cuts)

In order to avoid kickbacks, the following
instructions must always be followed
when plunge cutting:
– Always position the machine with the rear
edge of the saw table against a fixed stop.
– When working with the guide rail, position
the machine at the FS-RSP kickback stop
(accessory) [8-2], which is clamped to the
guide rail.
Procedure
► Place the machine on the workpiece and
position it at a stop (kickback stop).
► Switch on the machine.
► Slowly push the machine down to the set
cutting depth and push it forward in the cut­
ting direction.
The marks [9-1] indicate the absolute front and
rear cutting points of the saw blade (Ø 6‑1/4"
(160 mm)) when using the saw at maximum
cutting depth with the guide rail.
