Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What types of materials can the FESTOOL KS 120 REB 110V Mitre Saw cut?
A: This saw is optimized for wood and wood-based products, like timber, MDF, and most moldings. Specialized blades can expand its capability to soft plastics, but it is not recommended for metal or masonry work. Always match the blade to the material for safety and best results.
Q: How easy is it to adjust the mitre and bevel angles?
A: The saw provides front-facing adjustment controls for both mitre and bevel settings, allowing for precise, incremental angle changes without reaching around the machine. The bevel range is 47° in both directions, and the mitre can be set up to 50° left or 60° right, covering a variety of complex cuts.
Q: Does the saw include a laser guide, and how accurate is it?
A: Yes, it features a dual-line laser system that marks both edges of the cutting line. This greatly aids in aligning the cut, especially for wide or angled material, and is factory-calibrated for reliability. It's always good practice to confirm laser alignment to your specific blade after transport or heavy use.
Q: Is the FESTOOL KS 120 REB 110V compatible with dust extractors?
A: It includes two different dust port diameters (27 mm and 36 mm) for connection to Festool or other compatible dust extraction systems. Using a dust extractor helps maintain a clean work environment and improves visibility at the cutting area.
Q: What comes in the box with the saw?
A: The standard kit includes the KS 120 REB sliding mitre saw, a universal 60-tooth saw blade pre-installed, a bevel angle transfer bar, a hex key (size 6), and a workpiece clamp to secure materials during cutting. Additional blades and accessories are available separately.
Q: How compact is this model for workshops with limited space?
A: The saw's design keeps the rear of the unit flush, as there are no protruding guide rods. Its footprint is approximately 713 x 500 mm, making it suitable for smaller workshops or crowded job sites without sacrificing cutting capacity.
