WARNING
Risk of accident if the machine is operated us-
ing the incorrect voltage or frequency.
fThe line voltage and frequency of the power
supply must match those specified on the
machine's rating plate.
fOnly Festool machines with a rated voltage of
120 Volt may be used in North America.
fBefore use always inspect the flexible lead
and the plug. Have the defects repaired by a
specialist repair shop.
fOutside the premise use only approved ex-
tension leads and cable connections.
6.1 Setting up the machine
Ensure that the floor around the machine is lev-
el, in good condition and free of loose objects
(e.g. chips and offcuts).
L The machine can be set up with or without
the legs unfolded.
fTo unfold the legs: Loosen the four rotary
knobs [1-11] all the way.
fUnfold the legs [1-1] and tighten the rotary
knobs [1-11] again.
If the machine wobbles, the length of one leg can
be adjusted by turning the end cap [1-12] until
the machine stands securely.
6.2 Prior to initial operation
6.2a Fitting the knob
fScrew the supplied rotary knob [2-6] anti-
clockwise into the guide rod.
6.2b Fitting the guard [1-8]
fSet the saw to maximum cutting depth and the
mitre to 0°.
fPull the wedge [12-8] into the upper position.
fTake hold of the guard and completely unscrew
the screw [12-5].
fPlace the guard on the riving knife [12-8].
Guide the lengthwise pin that is located in the
guard into the groove [12-9] on the wedge
[12-8] [12-6] and push the screw [12-5] back
into the guard and though the hole [12-7] in
the riving knife, then tighten it.
Sound pressure level L

Measuring uncertainty allowance K = 3 dB
CAUTION
The noise produced during work may damage
your hearing.
fWear ear protection!
- The specified noise emission levels have been
measured in accordance with the standard test-
ing method and can be used to compare tools.
- The specified noise emissions can also be used
for making preliminary estimates regarding
noise load.
CAUTION
The noise emissions during actual use of the
power tool can differ from the declared va-
lues depending on the ways in which the tool
is used especially what kind of workpiece is
processed.
fIdentify safety measures to protect the opera-
tor that are based on an estimation of expos-
ure in the actual conditions of use (taking ac-
count of all parts of the operating cycle such
as the times when the tool is switched off and
when it is running idle in addition to the trig-
ger time).
5.5 Other risks
In spite of compliance with all relevant design
regulations, dangers may still present them-
selves when the machine is operated, e.g.:
- Workpiece parts being thrown off,
- Parts of damaged tools being thrown off,
- Noise emissions,
- Wood dust emissions.
