- The machine must always be placed with the rear
edge of the saw table against a fi xed stop.
When working with the guide rail, the tool must be
placed at the kickback stop (14.2), which is fi rmly
clamped on the guard rail. When not in use, the
kickback stop can be kept in safe keeping at the
guide plate (14.1) of the machine.
- The machine must always be held securely with
both hands and only plunged slowly.
Procedure: place the machine onto the workpiece
and position it against a stop (kickback stop), switch
the machine on, slowly press it down onto the set
cutting depth and push it forward in the cutting di-
rection.
The markings (13.1) display the absolute front and
the absolute rear cutting points of the saw blade
(dia. 160 mm) at maximum cutting depth and us-
ing the guide rail.

Sawing aluminium
When sawing aluminium, the following
measures must be taken for safety reasons:
• Pre-connect a residual current circuit-breaker.
• Connect the machine to a suitable dust extractor.
• Clean the machine regularly of dust deposits in
the motor housing and in the protective cover.
• Wear protective goggles.
• Aluminium must only be sawed with the special
saw blades from Festool designed for this pur-
pose.
• When sawing panels, they must be lubricated with
petroleum, thin-walled profi les (up to 3 mm) can
be sawed without lubrication.
Many Festool products are shipped in a unique sys-
tem container, called "Systainer". This provides pro-
tection and storage for the tool and accessories. The
Systainers are stackable and can be interlocked to-
gether. They also can be interlocked atop Festool
CT dust extractors.
– To open the Systainer:
• Turn the T-loc [15.1] to the position
– To lock the Systainer:
• Turn the T-loc [15.1] to the position
– To connect two Systainers:
• Place one Systainer on the top of the other
(Fig. 15 A).
• Turn the T-loc [15.1] to the position
(Fig. 15 B).
The Systainers are connected and locked.
