Extra Information

  • This kit is listed as FESKIT002 and includes Festool 577010 plus the Pro-Tech PT16060AL aluminium-profile saw blade.
  • The Festool 577010 machine set is the TS 55 FEBQ-Plus-FS and includes the FS 1400/2 guide rail.
  • The Festool TS 55 uses 160 mm saw blades with a 20 mm bore.
  • The included Pro-Tech PT16060AL saw blade is 160 x 2.2 x 20 x 60T and is intended for aluminium panels, aluminium profiles and selected plastics.
  • Use the correct blade for the material. Do not use a wood-only blade for aluminium profiles.
  • For cleaner cuts and safer operation, connect the saw to a suitable Festool dust extractor whenever possible.

Pro Tips

  • Use the Festool guide rail for long straight cuts instead of trying to freehand the cut. That is where the TS 55 really earns its keep.
  • When cutting aluminium, use the Pro-Tech PT16060AL blade, reduce feed pressure and allow the blade to cut steadily.
  • For best finish quality, support the workpiece properly on both sides of the cut.
  • Use the splinterguard and a sharp blade when cutting visible panels or laminated board.
  • Before cutting aluminium, check that the material is clamped securely and that the offcut cannot vibrate or kick.
  • Match the speed setting to the blade and material. Burning, chipping or noisy cutting is usually the machine asking you to slow down and behave.

How to Use

  • Select the correct saw blade for the material being cut.
  • Fit the saw blade using the FastFix blade change system and make sure it is securely fastened.
  • Set the cutting depth according to the workpiece thickness.
  • Place the FS 1400/2 guide rail accurately on the marked cutting line.
  • Clamp the guide rail where necessary, especially on smooth, narrow or valuable workpieces.
  • Connect a suitable dust extractor to the 27/36 mm extraction connection.
  • Set the speed according to the material and blade being used.
  • Place the saw on the guide rail and start the machine before entering the material.
  • Guide the saw steadily through the cut without forcing it.
  • Allow the saw blade to stop completely before lifting the machine away or changing the blade.

Safety

  • Wear eye, ear and dust protection when cutting wood, board products, aluminium, plastic or composite materials.
  • Use the correct blade for the material being cut and never use a damaged or incorrect saw blade.
  • Clamp the workpiece and guide rail securely where required before cutting.
  • Keep hands clear of the blade path and never reach underneath the workpiece while cutting.
  • Allow the saw blade to reach full speed before entering the material.
  • Do not force the saw through the material; use a steady feed rate suitable for the blade and material.
  • Use dust extraction whenever possible, especially when cutting board, MDF, plastics or coated materials.
  • When cutting aluminium, secure the material firmly and watch for sharp swarf and hot chips.
  • Disconnect the plug it cable before changing blades, adjusting the saw or carrying out maintenance.
