Supplemental Owner’s Manual 7 Intended Use The TS 55 REQ, hand-oper ated circular saw , is designed exclusively for sawing of wood, wood-lik e materials, and plastics. The saw may also be used for cutting aluminum when a Festool aluminum-cutting sa wblade is installed.
8 TS 55 REQ Trimming the Guide Rail Splinter Guard The leading edge of the guide rail has a replaceable, rub- ber , zero-clearance strip . The rst time the saw is used with the guide rail, this strip is trimmed to match the sa wblade. When trimmed to size, this strip reduces chipping and tearout during normal cutting.
Supplemental Owner’s Manual 9 Changing the Sawblade The TS55 saw features the F astFix system for easier blade changing. The F astFix system is engaged by raising the F astFix lever and plunging the saw down. The system includes the following features: ► For safet y , the power switch is locked out.
10 TS 55 REQ Sawblade Selection Festool sa wblades are designed for optimal performance in a variety of applications. Choosing the correct sa wblade is important for obtaining the best cuts and optimal blade life. There are sever al factors that determine which blades are best suited for the operation.
Supplemental Owner’s Manual 11 Guide Rails Guide rails come in a v ariety of lengths, ranging from 32 inches to 197 inches (800mm to 5000mm). It is always best to use the correct length rail for the cut, but sometimes it is necessary to join two smaller rails together to make a lon- ger rail.
12 TS 55 REQ Operation Setting the Blade Depth The TS55 is equipped with a depth stop for setting the depth of the blade during a plunge cut. Using the correct blade depth improves cutting safety , cut quality , and motor efciency .
Supplemental Owner’s Manual 13 Setting the Bevel Angle The standard bevel r ange of the TS 55 REQ is between 0˚ and 45˚. However , an extended r ange is also available from -1˚ to 47˚. The extended range is a vailable by pulling out on the limit release knob.
14 TS 55 REQ Using the Limit Stop The limit stop serves two purposes: it controls the saw’ s starting position and prevents a kickback during a plunge cut. The leading edge of the limit stop prevents the saw from lifting up at the beginning of a plunge cut.
Supplemental Owner’s Manual 15 Connecting the Plug-it Cord The TS55 saw comes equipped with a remov able Plug-It power cord. T o install the power cord, insert the cord into the inlet on the tool with the key and keyw ay aligned, and twist the locking ring.
16 TS 55 REQ Applications The TS55 is capable of performing a wide v ariety of tasks. The following sections provide information on some of these tasks. This is intended to be an introduction to the capabili- ties of the saw , but should not be considered as a compre- hensive list of its capabilities.
Supplemental Owner’s Manual 17 Crosscutting and Trimming No other saw on the market can outperform a F estool for splinter-free, ne crosscutting. With other saws, the problem is two-fold; getting a straight cut, and achiev - ing a splinter-free cut.
18 TS 55 REQ Plunge Cutting CAUTION! Never make a plunge cut without a limit stop. The back of the sawblade will lift the saw off the guide rail, and will result in a kickback situation. Plunge cutting is used when the cut does not start at the edge of the workpiece.
Supplemental Owner’s Manual 19 Cutting Non-Wood Materials Soft Plastics Soft plastics such as polypropylene won’t chip, but they will melt. Therefore, a more aggressive cut with the blade set deeper and the motor speed set low will reduce the melting.
20 TS 55 REQ Maintenance WARNING! Any maintenance or repair work that requires opening of the motor or gear hous- ing should be carried out only by an authorized Customer Service Center (see your dealer for information on locating a service center).
Supplemental Owner’s Manual 21 Replacing the Guide Rail Splinter Guard The splinter guard prevents splintering and chipping of the workpiece by holding the top edge of the workpiece down as the teeth of the sawblade move upw ard against it. The splinter guard needs to be replaced if it becomes damaged or worn.
22 TS 55 REQ Adjustments Matching Multiple Saws to Shared Guide Rails If you own multiple saws that share common guide r ails, you will want all of y our saws calibrated to the same blade position. This will prevent one saw from cutting more guide rail splinter guard than another sa w.
Supplemental Owner’s Manual 23 Installing the Imperial Depth Gauge The TS 55 REQ comes with an optional imperial depth gauge sticker to replace the standard metric depth gauge. 1. Set the depth gauge pointer to its maximum setting. 2. Using a sharp pencil, carefully mark the zero-depth posi- tion of the depth gauge on the blade housing.
24 TS 55 REQ Troubleshooting Symptom P ossible Causes M oto r does not start ► Check that the cord is properly plugged into an outlet. ► Make sure the Plug-it connector is properly inserted and fully tightened. ► Make sure the outlet has power .
