To Next PageTo Next PageWhy does the Festool KA 65 display light up red?
The display lights up red because the Festool Power Tool switches to cooling mode after being idle for 15 minutes. To resolve this, press the start button [1-1] to switch the machine back on.
What to do if error symbol appears on Festool Power Tool display?
If an error symbol appears on the display [1-20], it means the machine electronics have detected a serious error. Turn the machine off using the on/off switch [1-8] and let it cool for a few minutes. Then, turn it back on using the same switch [1-8]. If the error persists, contact after-sales service.
What to do if Festool Power Tool inlet switches off before edge band is inserted?
If the inlet switches off before the edge band is inserted, it means the 20-second time window has been exceeded. To fix this, press the start button [1-1] to start the drive again.
What to do if Festool KA 65 adhesive is too liquid or viscous?
If the adhesive is too liquid or viscous, it's likely due to an incorrect temperature setting. Adjust the temperature for the relevant adhesive cartridges using the menu buttons [1-19].
What to do if Festool Power Tool inlet does not switch off even though the edge band has passed through the machine?
If the inlet does not switch off even though the edge band has passed through, the light barrier [3-4] is likely dirty. Clean the light barrier [3-4] carefully.
What to do if Festool KA 65 Power Tool shows error message 'edge band not yet inserted'?
If the error message 'edge band not yet inserted' appears on the display [1-20], remove the edge band.
What to do if there is insufficient adhesive applied to thin edge bands with my Festool KA 65 Power Tool?
If there is insufficient adhesive applied to thin edge bands (approximately 0.5 - 0.8 mm depending on the material) at the start of gluing, it is likely due to a lack of edge band pressure on the adhesive nozzle. At the start of gluing, place an additional piece of edge band (approx. 20 cm) with the same edge height behind the main edge band. Guide this additional piece into the edge inlet after the main edge band.
What to do if an error symbol appears on the display of my Festool Power Tool?
If an error symbol appears on the display of your Festool Power Tool, it indicates a serious error detected by the machine electronics. Turn the machine off using the on/off switch [1-8] and let it cool down for a few minutes. Then, turn it back on using the same switch. If the error symbol reappears, it may require professional attention.
Why is the edge band not adhering when using my Festool Power Tool?
If the edge band isn't adhering properly when using your Festool Power Tool, the surface may be dirty, or the nozzle holes could be blocked. First, try initiating the purging process to clear any dirt. If the problem persists, and the contamination is severe, fully raise the central plate and carefully pierce the lower nozzle holes during operation.
How to adjust adhesive if it is too liquid/viscous in my Festool Power Tool?
If the adhesive is too liquid or viscous when using your Festool Power Tool, it's likely due to an incorrect temperature setting. You can adjust the temperature for the adhesive cartridges using the menu buttons [1-19].
