10.1 Saw blades, other accessories
In order to saw different materials quickly and
cleanly, Festool offers saw blades for all appli-
cations that are specially designed for your
Festool jigsaw.

The special base runners protect high-quality
surfaces against scratches and scores.

At the same time, push the base runner

Mount another base runner and push it to
the rear until it engages.

WARNING
Sawing cutting depths
Risk of injury
Select the saw blade length and cutting
depth so that the saw blade remains
plunged in the workpiece.
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
attaching your jigsaw to the Festool guide rail,
the circle cutter KS-PS 400 and the CMS mod-
ular system.
With guide rail and circle cutter: do
not exceed max. material thickness of
20 mm and always use cross-set saw
blades (FSG).

ter 7.4).
Mount the adaptation table [8-1] on the
saw table support.
Close the change lever [1-9].
Ensure that the adaptation table is firmly seat-
ed 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 circle 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 cut-
ter using the rotary knob [10-5].
