Intended Use The TS 55 EQ, hand-operated circular saw, is designed exclus ively for sawing of wood, wood -like materials, and plastics. The saw may als o be used for cutting a luminum when a Fes tool aluminum-cutting sawblade is in stalled.
Adjusting the Guide Rail Gib Cams The guide rail gib cams tighten a gainst the rib of the guide rail to remove any side-play from the saw during a cut. Thumbwheels on the top of the cams permit easy adjustment. 1. Place the saw on the guide rail. 2. Loosen both cams by rotating the thumbwheels counterclockwise.
Trimming the Outrigger Splinter Guard The outrigger splinter guard is used to prevent chipping on the offcut side of the sawblade. The outrigger can be retracted away from the workpiece when not needed. Before the outrigger splinter guard is used for the first time, it needs to be trimmed to fit the sawblade.
Changing the Sawblade The TS 55 saw features the FastFix system for easier blade changing. The FastFix system is engaged by raising the FastFix latch lever and plunging the saw down. The system includes the following features: ► For safety, the power switch is locked out.
Setting the Blade Perpendicular to the Sole Plate This adjustment ensures that cuts are made square to the workpiece surface. This adjustment is completed at the factory and shouldn’t need to be adjusted unless the tool has been modified or serviced.
Adjusting the 45º Bevel Stop The bevel setting has a posit ive stop at 45º and is adjustable for accuracy. In most cases, the bevel stop should be set for 45º, however, some users may prefer to have the stop set slightly larger than 45º for tighter miter corners.
Operation Setting the Blade Depth The TS 55 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 qua lity, and motor efficiency.
Turning On the Saw To prevent unexpected start-ups, the power switch has an integral safety interlock. Before the saw ca n be started, the plunge release must be engaged. 1. Insert the Plug-it cord into the saw with the keyway li ned up with the key, and twist the end to lock it in place.
Setting the Bevel Angle When used with the guide rail, the blade of the TS 55 enters the workpiece at exactly the same location regardless of the bevel angle (see the picture on page 7). However, when used without the guide rail, the cut positi on moves outward slightly as the bevel angle increases.
Using Dust Extraction The TS 55 can be used with or without a dust extracti on system. The chip diverter sw ivels to direct the sawdust away from the work area when a dust extraction system is not used. For best results, however, a du st extraction system (such as the Festool CT 22 shown below) should be used.
Applications The TS 55 is capable of performing a wide variety of tasks. The following sections provide information on some of these tasks. This is intended to be an introduction to th e capabilit ies of the saw, but should not be considered as a comprehensive list of its capabilities.
Crosscutting and Trimming No other saw on the market can outperform a Festool for splinter-free, fine crosscutting. With other sa ws, the problem is two-fold; getting a straight cut , and achieving a splinter- free cut. The TS 55 handles these problems effortlessly.
Instruction Manual Plunge Cutting Plunge cutting is used when the cut does not start at the edge of the workpiece; it starts in the middle of the workpiece. There is a wide variety of applications for plunge cuts. The example shown below is for insetting a maple butcherblock into an existing countertop.
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 will reduce the melting. ► Too shallow of a blade depth and the plastic will be more prone to melting.
Accessories Sawblades Description Coarse Crosscut Ripping (Panther) Combination Purpose With a low tooth count and a high hook angle, this blade easily cuts through general construction materials. The high hook angle of the Panther blade makes for effortless ripping without burning the cut.
Guide Rails 22 TS 55 EQ Circular Saw Additional guide rails are available in lengths from 32 inches to 197 inches. Dust Cover Item Number: 491 750 The dust cover is for improved dust collection by covering the openings in the side of the blade cover.
Systainer (System Container) Every Festool product is shipped in its own unique system co ntainer, called a "Systainer." This provides protection and storage for the tool and accessories. All Systainers are stacka ble and can be interlocked together, including stacking and locking atop Festool dust extractors.
24 TS 55 EQ Circular Saw Troubleshooting Symptom Possible Causes Motor does not start 1. Check that the cord is properly plugged into an outlet. 2. Make sure the outlet has power. Check the circuit breaker or try another outlet. 3. If used with a Festool dust extract or, ma ke sure the selector switch is pointing to "Auto".
Instruction Manual 25 Maintenance Routine Maintenance Any maintenance or repair work that requires opening of the motor or gear housing should be carried out only by an authorized Customer Service Cen.
Replacing the Guide Rail Gib Cams 26 TS 55 EQ Circular Saw If the gib cams are over tightened, or the saw is used in an environment with abrasive dust , the cams may develop flat spots and should be replaced. Maintaining proper adjustment and keeping the saw clean will increase the life of the cams.
Changing the Motor Brushes The motor brushes wear out over time and need to be replaced by an authorized service center. Festool does not condone brush replacement by the end-user. Completion of this procedure by an unauthorized service center will void the tool's warranty.
