Guide Rail Fs3000-2

Extra Information

• The FS 3000/2 is part of the Festool guide rail system and is designed for precision sawing and routing work.
• The 3000 mm length makes it useful for longer panels and larger workpieces where shorter guide rails may not be enough.
• The splinterguard should sit directly on the cut line to help reduce tear-out.
• For extra security, use suitable Festool clamps, FS-Rapid quick-action clamps or compatible guide rail accessories.
• Two guide rails can be connected with suitable Festool connecting pieces for extended cutting lengths.
• For best results, keep the rail clean and protect the splinterguard from cuts or damage during storage.
