Ensure that the angle table is firmly seated in the
guide.
Setting the angle
Turn the adjusting wheel
[7-1]
to select the re-
quired angle.
You can select the angles -45°, 0° and +45° on the
scale
[7-2]
.
For 90° cuts, we recommend setting the angle
table to a small negative angle to guarantee
smooth operation.
10.4 Sawing with the adaptation table
The adaptation table ADT-PS 400 is used for attach-
ing your jigsaw to the Festool guide rail, the circle
cutter KS-PS 400 and the CMS modular system.
With guide rail and circle cutter:
do not ex-
ceed max. material thickness of 20 mm and
always use cross-set saw blades (FSG).
Installing the adaptation table
Remove the saw table
[1-11]
, (see chapter 7.4).
Mount the adaptation table
[8-1]
on the saw ta-
ble support.
Close the change lever
[1-9]
.
Ensure that the adaptation table is firmly seated in
the guide.
Use the extractor connector
[1-8]
also with the
adaptation table.
Adaptation to the guide rail FS 2
The Festool guide system FS 2 (Fig.
[9]
) makes it
much easier to manufacture straight precision cuts.
Place the jigsaw with attached adaptation table
[8-1]
on the guide rail.
Adaptation to the circle cutter
The circle cutter can be used to create circular cuts
with a diameter between 120 and 3000 mm. The cir-
cle cutter can be installed from both sides on the
adaptation table.
Place the jigsaw with attached adaptation table
on the adapter
[10-1]
on the circle cutter.
Insert the centring mandrel
[10-2]
in the hole
[10-4]
on the circle cutter aligned with the saw
blade.
Clamp the measuring tape to the circle cutter
using the rotary knob
[10-5]
.
Recommended when using the circle cutter:
Cut in an anticlockwise direction.
Work at a slow rate of advance.
Set the pendulum stroke
[1-12]
to 0 - 1.
Set the stroke rate
[1-5]
to 1 - 5.
Store the centring mandrel in the depot
[10-3]
.
Semi-stationary sawing with the Festool CMS system
When combined with the Festool CMS system, the jig-
saw becomes a semi-stationary bench saw for profiled
cuts. See the CMS brochure for more information.
Install your jigsaw with adaptation table in the
CMS as described in the operating manual for
the CMS-PS.
