9.4 Independent extraction
► Secure the connection piece [6-2] of the
dust collection bag [6-3] at the extractor
connector [6-1] with a clockwise rotation.
► To empty, remove the connection piece of
the dust collection bag from the extractor
connector with an anti-clockwise rotation.
9.5 Adjusting the table extension
► Open the rotary knob [7-2]
.
► Pull out the table extension [7-1] far
enough that the workpiece is laid out fully.
► Close the rotary knob.
If, despite the table extension being ex
tended as far as possible, the workpiece
protrudes over the table, the workpiece
must be supported by other means.
9.6 Setting the stop rulers
[8]
For mitre cuts, you must adjust the stop rul
ers
[8A-1] so that they do not impede the func
tionality of the pendulum guard or come into
contact with the saw blade.
WARNING! Replace damaged stop rulers be
fore using the saw.
► Open the rotary knobs (on both
sides) [8A-2]
.
► Move the stop rulers [8A-1] in such a way
that there is a maximum clearance of 5/16"
(8 mm) from the saw blade.
► While the machine is switched off, lower the
saw unit in a trial run to check whether the
saw blade comes into contact with the stop
rulers.
► Close the rotary knobs.
The contact surface of the stop rulers can
be individually adjusted by screwing in
suitable tap blocks
[8B]. When doing so,
ensure that the functionality of the saw is
not restricted in any way.
9.7 Selecting the saw blade
Festool saw blades are identified by a coloured
ring. The colour of the ring represents the ma
terial for which the saw blade is suited.
Refer to the necessary saw blade data (see sec
tion 4.1).
