Product Description
The Festool(r) TS 55 EQ & TS 75 EQ have transformed the circular saw into a precision cutting system. When used with the FS/2 Guide Rail System, precision cutting can be accomplished at the work site as well as in the workshop. Together they produce absolutely straight and splinter-free cuts everytime. Whether cutting perpendicularly or at a bevel, the cut line is the same. As a plunge-cut saw, an accurate cut can be made anywhere in the material, and, because the saw blade and riving knife retract into the housing, safety is greatly increased. This user's guide gives a complete, easy-to-understand explanation of the Festool sawing system with step-by-step instructions for its use and applications. The saws are explained in detail, covering settings and adjustments, and the various blades that are available. While the saw works well in the freehand mode, it becomes a precision tool when used with the Festool FS/2 Guide Rail, a well-engineered and versatile system with many applications. The guide rail system, the Festool Multifunction Table and the CT Dust Extraction System are also covered here in detail.

5 out of 5 stars Must have for the Festool Plunge Saw/Multifunction Table system   November 2, 2008
 0 out of 2 found this review helpful

You invested nearly $1,500 in the saw, table and dust extractor. Invest $20 more in the most complete manual you can imagine. Covers everything you could possibly need to know about this system. Hundreds of photos and complete instructions. Get 100% out of these tools.


3 out of 5 stars For the beginner   October 26, 2008
Very basic info for the new to Festool. Explains how the system is intergrated and how to use. Expected more since I have had my saw for 2 years.


1 out of 5 stars Zero content   September 28, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This is a very disappointing book. Lots of beautiful color photos. High quality paper, and nicely bound. The only problem is that there is absolutely no useful content. This is a combination of an extended sales brochure (but not extended with useful information), and a color version of Festool's really lousy user manuals.

It is surprising that a company that makes tools that are substantially better than anyone else's has produced such a sub-standard set of documentation. The pity of it is that their tools are so full of forethought, and great little features (that end up making a major difference).

I strongly recommend against this book. There is simply nothing to be learned from it's incredibly sparse content. i'm returning my copy right away.
