Commissioning

6.1
Initial commissioning
WARNING
Unauthorised voltage or frequency!
Risk of accidents
► Observe the specifications on the ma-
chine's name plate.
► Observe country-specific regulations.
Ensure that the power tool is securely
positioned. Risk of tipping over. If re-
quired, observe the assembly instructions for
the MFT multifunction table or UG-KAPEX KS
60 underframe.
► Remove the transport safety device [3].
▷ Remove the protective sleeve from the
left-hand pulling rail
▷ Push the saw unit down, thus breaking
through the cable ties that are securing
it in place
▷ Remove the clamp from around the tilt
locking device
► Set up the machine and move it into the
working position.
6.2
Setting up and securing [5]
Pull out the mains plug before you carry
out any work on the machine.
Before securing, if required, install the A-SYS-
KS60 support legs (optional accessory). Thanks
to these support legs, the work surface on the
rotary base is at the same height as a Systainer
1. These Systainers mean that long workpieces
can then be supported [5].

You have the following options for
securing:
Secure the machine in such a way that it cannot
slip when you are working on it.
Screws [5A]: Use four screws to secure the
machine to the work surface. Use the holes
[5A-1] at the four support points on the saw ta-
ble to do this.
Fastening clamps [5B]: Use fastening
clamps [5B-1] to secure the machine to the
work surface. The support points are used to
firmly secure the machine while taking the cen-
tre of gravity into consideration.
Clamping set (for MFT) [5C]: Use the clamping
set [5C-2] to secure the machine onto the
Festool MFT 3 or MFT/Kapex (SZ-KS) multi-
function table. The hexagonal holes [5C-1]
close to the table extension on both sides are
used for this.
UG-KAPEX KS 60 underframe[5D]: Observe the
installation instructions that are enclosed with
the underframe.
