Measuring uncertainty allowance K = 3 dB
Wear ear protection.
Measured acceleration < 2.5 m/s²
The specifi ed emissions values (vibration, noise)
– are used to compare machines.
– They are also used for making preliminary
estimates regarding vibration and noise loads
during operation.
– They represent the primary applications of the
power tool.
Increase possible for other applications, with
other insertion tools or if not maintained adequat-

the machine.
Before using the machine, set up on a level, stable
work surface (e.g. the underframe UG-KAPEX, the
multifunction table MFT or a worktop).
The following assembly options are available:
Fastening: Secure the machine on the work sur-
face using four screws. Use the holes (6.1) on the
four support points on the saw table.
Clamps: Secure the machine on the work surface
using four clamps. The fl at surfaces (6.2) on the
four saw table support points are used as clamp-
ing surfaces.
Clamping set (for MFT): Secure the machine on
the Festool multifunction table MFT using the
clamping set (6.4, 494693). Use the two screw
holes (6.3).
Underframe UG-KAPEX
