Festool 561432 TS 55 EQ Plunge Cut Circular Saw
Festool TS saws deliver radial arm saw, miter saw, and table saw performance, with panel saw-precision in a versatile, portable design.  Why struggle with cutting large pieces like plywood with traditional stationary equipment?  Take the tool to the work with the TS saw and guide rail system.   TS saws allow you to make rip cuts and cross-cuts in sheet goods quickly and easily without having to maneuver material through a stationary machine.  Make angled, beveled, and compound cuts at virtually any angle with the highest level of precision while providing a perfect edge.      The TS 55 has redefined the standards for circular saws. A host of refinements were incorporated to create a saw that is lighter, easier to handle, and more accurate than traditional saws. You get almost 2 inches of cutting capacity when used with the guide rail and the 55 mm cutting depth. The plunge action allows you to make precision cut-outs on wood surfaces and flooring.     When used with included Festool guide rails, you have ultimate control over the TS saw for perfectly straight cuts.  Add the replaceable splinterguard, and a splinter-free cut is achievable on both sides of the blade.  Set the guide rail to your marks and know that you will cut right on the line, regardless of the angle every time.  Plunge-cutting action with simple depth adjustment allows you to expose only the part of the blade necessary for the cut. The plunge action allows cut placement anywhere on the cut line for straight cuts or cut-outs into material.  Spring-loaded riving knife (splitter) retracts into the housing during plunge-cuts. The riving knife keeps the cut kerf open so that the material does not pinch the blade. This reduces the chance of kickback.  Variable speed allows you to match the speed of the saw to the material. The electronics also maintain a consistent speed under load, improving cut performance and protecting the saw’s motor from thermal and current overload.    Made in Germany.
