tool, and that the cutting edges do not
come into contact with other components.
– Do not lengthen the key or tighten by hitting
with a hammer.
– The clamping surfaces must be cleaned to
remove contamination, grease, oil and wa
ter.
– Clamping screws must be tightened ac
cording to the manufacturer's instructions.
– Only securely installed rings, e.g. rings that
have been pressed in or those that are held
in position by an adhesive bond, may be
used to adjust the hole diameter of circular
saw blades to the spindle diameter of the
machine. The use of loose rings is not per
mitted.
Service and maintenance
– Repairs and sanding work may only be car
ried out by Festool customer service work
shops or experts.
– The tool design must not be changed.
– Deresinify and clean the tool regularly
(cleaning agent with pH between 4.5 and 8).
– Blunt edges can be resharpened on the
clamping surface to a minimum cutting
edge thickness of 1 mm.
– Only transport the tool in suitable packag
ing – risk of injury!

Aluminium processing
When sawing aluminium, the following
measures must be taken for safety reasons:
– Install an upstream residual-current circuit
breaker (RCD, PRCD).
– Connect the power tool to a suitable dust
extractor.
– Regularly clean dust deposits from the mo
tor housing on the power tool.
– Use an aluminium saw blade.
Wear protective goggles.
2.6
Other risks
In spite of compliance with all relevant design
regulations, dangers may still present them
selves when the machine is operated, e.g.:
– Touching rotating parts from the side: Saw
blade, clamping flange, flange screw,
– Touching live parts when the housing is
open and the mains plug is still plugged in,
– Workpiece parts being thrown off,
– Parts of damaged tools being thrown off,
– Noise emissions,
– Dust emissions.
2.7
Emission levels
The levels determined in accordance
with EN 62841 are typically:
Sound pressure level
L
PA
= 87 dB(A)
Sound power level
L
WA
= 102 dB(A)
Uncertainty
K = 3 dB
CAUTION
Noise generated when working
Risk of damage to hearing
► Use ear protection.
The specified noise emission values
– have been measured in accordance with a
standardised test procedure, can be used
to compare one power tool with another,
– and can also be used for a provisional as
sessment of the load.
CAUTION
The emission values may deviate from the
specified values. This is dependent on how
the tool is used and the type of workpiece
being machined.
► The actual load during the entire operating
cycle must be evaluated.
► Depending on the actual load, suitable pro
tective measures must be defined in order
to protect the operator.

Intended use
The TKS 80 EBS is designed as a transportable
power tool for sawing wood, laminated wooden
panels, non-ferrous metals and plastic.
NOTICE
SawStop technology is triggered
► When sawing non-ferrous metals, wet,
statically charged or conductive materials,
deactivate the SawStop technology (bypass
mode).
This power tool may only be used by experts or
instructed persons.
The user is liable for improper or non-in
tended use.
3.1
Saw blades
Only use Festool saw blades that are designed
for use in this power tool.
