Festool HW 225x2,6x30 W48 WOOD FINE CUT Saw Blade

At a Glance: Precision 225mm carbide saw blade with 48 alternating teeth for particularly clean, virtually splinter-free crosscuts and angle cuts in solid wood, veneered boards and coated panels with the Festool CS 70 PRECISIO.

Achieve fine, precise cutting results with the Festool HW 225x2,6x30 W48 WOOD FINE CUT Saw Blade. Designed specifically for the Festool CS 70 PRECISIO trimming saw, this professional blade features 48 high-quality carbide teeth in an alternating-tooth configuration. The high tooth count and relatively small chip spaces produce particularly clean cutting edges, making the blade ideal for accurate crosscuts and angle cuts across the wood grain. It is suitable for solid wood, coated and veneered panels, blockboard, plywood, multiplex panels, MDF and acrylic glass. Its robust construction, long service life and excellent resharpening properties make it a dependable choice for furniture production, cabinetmaking and precision interior-fitting work.

Fine, virtually splinter-free cuts across the wood grain

The alternating-tooth geometry and high number of teeth produce a smooth cutting action with reduced breakout. This makes the blade particularly suitable for visible crosscut edges, veneered surfaces and coated panels where a clean finish is essential.

Pro Tips

  • Use this blade primarily for fine crosscuts and angle cuts rather than fast ripping along the wood grain.
  • Support long or wide panels securely on both sides of the cutting area.
  • Keep the workpiece firmly against the fence or angle stop throughout the cut.
  • Use a smooth, controlled feed rate and allow the blade to cut without excessive pressure.
  • Check that the fence and angle stop are accurately adjusted before cutting finished components.
  • Use a suitable splinter guard where available to further improve the finished edge.
  • Clean resin, adhesive and pitch deposits from the blade regularly to maintain cutting performance.
  • Make a test cut in an offcut when machining unfamiliar coated, veneered or acrylic material.
  • Have the blade professionally resharpened when increased feed pressure, burning or excessive splintering becomes noticeable.
  • Use effective dust extraction to keep the cutting area visible and reduce airborne dust.

How to Use

  • Switch off the CS 70 and disconnect it from the mains power supply.
  • Wait for the installed blade to stop completely before beginning the blade change.
  • Inspect the replacement blade for cracks, distortion, damaged teeth or excessive contamination.
  • Confirm that the 225mm diameter, 30mm bore and 2.60mm cutting width are correct for the machine.
  • Remove the existing blade according to the CS 70 operating instructions.
  • Clean the arbor, flanges and all blade-contact surfaces.
  • Install the HW 225x2,6x30 W48 blade with its direction arrow matching the rotation direction marked on the machine.
  • Fit and tighten the blade flange and retaining hardware according to the prescribed procedure.
  • Confirm that the blade is seated correctly and rotates freely without contacting the guard or machine housing.
  • Refit and secure all guards and safety components.
  • Connect suitable dust extraction.
  • Adjust the blade height, fence or angle stop according to the required cut.
  • Support the workpiece securely and keep the cutting path clear.
  • Start the saw and allow the blade to reach full operating speed.
  • Guide the workpiece smoothly through the blade without twisting or forcing it.
  • Use suitable push sticks or workpiece guides whenever required.
  • After completing the cut, switch off the saw and wait for the blade to stop completely before removing offcuts or making adjustments.
