The Festool TS 75 EBQ is a plunge saw, that allows, in addition to normal circular saw functions, to be pushed downwards into the workpiece. The maximal depth is 75 mm and can be adjusted in 1 mm increments.

Make sure to remove the riving knife (Spaltkeil) before a plunge cut, it will get in the way!

Guide Rail

Kickback stop

The saw can be used with a Festool guide rail for ease of use. Currently we have a single 1400 mm rail, but in the future multiple ones can be joined together to cut any length wished.

To avoid kickback during plunging, an endstop can be attached to the rail. When not in use it is attached to the backside of the saw.

• cable
