Features

The TS has always stood out with its absolute precision cuts, maximum power and extreme durability.

The usual reliability remains – but the working speed is unprecedented: the TS 55 now saws at up to twice the speed. In addition, the new generation of cutting blades guarantees perfect cutting quality with maximum cutting performance.

Cuts are virtually splinter-free on both sides thanks to the attachable splinterguard, and accuracy is easy to achieve with the cutting edge from 90° to 47° remaining unchanged even when the saw swivels. A guide wedge allows for safer work and simple positioning in the existing joint.

With accessories, such as guide rails and the angle stop, or sophisticated and tried-and-test details, such as the splinter guard and extraction system perfectly matched to the machine, the TS 55 provides excellent work results and a top-class sawing system – for every challenge.

MAIN APPLICATIONS

  • Precise circular in materials up to 55 mm thick
  • Cutting interior doors to length using guide rail and circular saw
  • Cutting recesses in doors and kitchen worktops
  • Manufacturing expansion joints in parquet flooring and false joints
  • Cutting chipboard to size

For more information on saw blades, applications, and compatible tools, see our guide to saw blades and how to get perfect cutting results.

Exceptional torque

The concentrated torque of our plunge-cut saw enables work progress at up to twice the speed with an increased saw blade service life. Our new generation of saw blades impresses users when combined with maximum cutting performance and perfect cutting quality.

Perfect cuts reduce the need for reworking

With the clip-on splinter guard in combination with the guide rail, it is even possible to saw on both sides without virtually any splinters.

Exact cuts, even at an angle

The TS 55 enables precise work. The cutting edge from 90° to 47° remains unchanged even when the saw swivels.

Precise and healthy working with a system

Combined with our guide rails, a wide range of saw blades, the adapted extraction system, saw table, angle stop and splinter guard, we offer a top-class sawing system.

Improved safety, easy handling

The spring-loaded guide wedge runs in front of the saw blade to prevent it from jamming and makes it easier to insert the blade in existing joints.

Angle setting from -1° to 47°

The angles 0° and 45° can be selected directly using the locking positions. Undercuts are also possible with the extended adjustment option from -1° to 47°.

Best orientation for plunge cuts

Transparent sliding viewing window and the additional markings for the starting and end point provide a good view of the saw blade.

Maximum flexibility

The slimline housing allows users to make cuts up to the edges and in close proximity to the wall (12 mm).

More options thanks to control electronics

Our fitted control electronics enable speed control for temperature monitoring, a quick-acting brake and perfect adaptation to the material.

FastFix saw blade changing system

Always adapted to the working material. The FastFix spindle stop makes it extremely easy to change the saw blade. The correct saw blade is fitted in just a few steps and the sawing speed is adapted to the material.

Exact depth setting

Easy to read and adjust: The dual cutting depth scale for working with or without a guide rail. Now even easier thanks to extra-large font and precision adjustment.
