Extra Info
Extra Information
- This blade is designed for compatible Festool KS 120 and KS 88 KAPEX mitre saws.
- The TF tooth shape is suited to aluminium, hard plastics and selected non-ferrous materials.
- The blade is part of Festool’s colour-coded saw blade system, with blue indicating aluminium and hard plastics.
- Always match the blade to the material being cut for the best finish and safest cutting performance.
- For best results, secure the workpiece firmly before cutting aluminium profiles, plastics or non-ferrous metals.
Pro Tips
- Use a steady, controlled feed rate when cutting aluminium or plastics to improve the finish and reduce blade stress.
- Clamp aluminium profiles securely before cutting to prevent vibration, movement or blade grabbing.
- Allow the blade to reach full speed before entering the material for a cleaner and more controlled cut.
- Keep the blade clean from resin, plastic residue and aluminium build-up to maintain cutting quality.
- Do not use this blade for general timber cutting; select the correct Festool wood blade for timber applications.
How to Use
- Confirm that the blade is suitable for your Festool KS 120 or KS 88 saw and for the material being cut.
- Disconnect the saw from power before fitting or changing the blade.
- Install the blade with the rotation direction matching the arrow on the saw and blade.
- Tighten the blade securely according to the machine instructions.
- Clamp the workpiece firmly, especially when cutting aluminium profiles or hard plastic sections.
- Start the saw and allow the blade to reach full speed before making contact with the material.
- Cut with a smooth, controlled motion and avoid forcing the blade through the material.
- After use, clean the blade and inspect the teeth for wear or damage before storage.
Safety
Safety
- Wear eye, ear and dust protection when cutting aluminium, plastics, HPL or other sheet materials.
- Always disconnect the saw from power before changing or inspecting the blade.
- Use only on compatible machines and never exceed the machine or blade operating limits.
- Clamp the workpiece securely before cutting to prevent movement, vibration or kickback.
- Keep hands clear of the cutting area and wait for the blade to stop completely before removing offcuts.
