8.4 Operation with an electric generator (EG)
driven by a combustion engine

Festool cannot guarantee that the power tool
will operate correctly in conjunction with all
EGs.
The power tool can be operated with an EG as long
as the following conditions are fulfilled:
– The EG's output voltage must remain in the range
230 VAC ±10% and the EG must be equipped with
an AVR (automatic voltage regulator); the power
tool will not operate correctly without this regu-
lator and may be damaged.
– The power output of the EG must be at least 2.5
times greater than the connected load of the
power tool (i.e. 6 kW).
– If the power tool is operated using an EG that is
not sufficiently powerful, the speed may fluctuate
and the power output of the power tool may drop.

Regular cleaning of the machine, above all
the adjustment devices and the guides, is an
important safety factor.
Observe the following instructions:

To ensure constant air circulation, always keep
the cooling openings in the housing unobstruct-
ed and air accessible.

Use an extractor on all openings of the power
tool to remove chips and splinters.

The pendulum guard must always be able to
move freely and close independently. Always
keep the area around the pendulum guard

out with compressed air or using a brush.

In order to saw different materials quickly and
cleanly, Festool offers saw blades for all applica-
tions that are specially designed for your Festool
portable circular saw.
10.2 Parallel side fence [8]
The parallel side fence (on both sides) is designed
to guide the saw parallel to the edge of the work-
piece [8A] and can also be used as an extension ta-
ble [8B] to achieve a straight, precise cut.

10.3 Guide rail

The guide rail enables you to make clean, accurate
cuts while simultaneously protecting the surface of
the workpiece from damage.
In conjunction with the extensive range of accesso-
ries, exact angled cuts, mitre cuts and fitting work
can be completed with the guide system. The option
of attaching the guide rail securely using clamps
[7-6] ensures safer working conditions.

Adjust the guide play between the saw table and
the guide rail using the two adjustable jaws [7-
7].
The splinterguard [7-3] requires breaking in be-
fore first usage:

Position saw at the very end of the guide rail, so
that the guide plate is level.

Swivel saw to 0° position and set to maximum
cutting depth.

Switch on saw.
