Product Review

The TS 75 EQ features an 8-1/4" blade (30mm arbor) with a 13 amp, 120V motor that can be adjusted from 1,350-3,550 RPM. Festool products can only be sold in the 50 states



Festool's TS 75 EQ keeps all the great features of its predecessor and adds new features that make the plunge saw more convenient, more capable, and more user-friendly. A new, larger Thumb Interlock makes it easier to switch on the power and pivot the blade down for cutting, while a new Blade Lock disconnects the power switch and locks the blade down in position for removal. Plunge cuts in the middle of a workpiece are easier than ever, since the riving knife is now spring-loaded and automatically retracts when plunging.



When used with the Festool Guide rail system, the TS 75 is ideal for installation of laminate flooring systems and allows cutting just 3/8" off a wall. Crosscutting veneered materials with most circular saws leaves a splintered mess. Festool's new sacrificial Splinter Guard rests on the workpiece directly above the cut, providing "zero clearance" support at the blade for the top veneer, resulting in clean, chip-free cuts in melamine, veneered plywood, and even high-pressure laminates. The suggested 75" guide rail allows for fast precise cuts with little or no setup time, since the edge guide automatically aligns to the cutline.



Electronic variable-speed control automatically maintains a constant blade speed under load, and the soft start and automatic idle cut down on operator fatigue and noise. The Festool TS 75 EQ uses an 8-1/4" diameter blade, but still provides a 2-3/4" cut at 90° and a 2-1/8" cut at 45°. Festool TS 75 EQ includes a T-LOC Systainer SYS 5 storage box, 36-tooth carbide tipped blade, 75" guide rail, limit stop, and chip deflector.
