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.
