With a wide mitre range, flexible bevel adjustment and LED cut-line visibility, it is a strong choice for installers, shopfitters, carpenters and woodworkers who need reliable cutting performance on site or in the workshop.

Product highlights

Compact and mobile: Ergonomic handles, cord holder and transport safety device make the saw easy to carry and move between jobs.
LED spotlight included: Projects the shadow of the saw blade onto the material for clear and precise cut-line positioning.
Wide mitre range: Mitre angle adjustment up to 60° left and 60° right for flexible trim and installation work.
Flexible bevel cuts: Inclination angle up to 47° left and 46° right for compound mitre applications.
Accurate angle transfer: Supplied SM-KS bevel helps measure interior and exterior angles and transfer them directly to the saw.
Groove function: Cutting depth limiter allows fast grooving and controlled partial-depth cuts.
Twin-column guide: Ensures the saw blade is guided smoothly and reliably for accurate results.
Dust extraction ready: CLEANTEC extraction connection supports cleaner work when connected to a suitable Festool dust extractor.

Extra Information

The KS 60 E-Set is part of Festool's KAPEX sliding compound mitre saw range.
The SET version includes the SL-KS 60 spotlight, SM-KS bevel and A-SYS-KS 60 increase/additional feet.
The LED spotlight shows the blade shadow on the material for accurate alignment against the scribe mark.
The included SM-KS bevel makes it easier to measure interior and exterior angles and transfer them directly to the saw.
The A-SYS-KS 60 additional feet raise the saw to the height of a Systainer SYS 1, which can then be used as an additional support surface.
The machine is designed for accurate mobile cutting without unnecessary weight, making it a strong choice for fitters and installers.
For longer workpieces and more mobile workstation convenience, compatible Festool underframes and trimming attachments are available separately.

Pro Tips

Use the LED spotlight to position the cut carefully before lowering the saw head. The blade shadow gives a very practical visual guide.
Use the bevel for skirting and cornice work to transfer wall angles directly to the saw without guesswork.
Use a Systainer SYS 1 with the additional feet as a quick support surface for longer workpieces.
Connect a suitable Festool dust extractor to keep the cut line clearer and reduce dust on indoor installation jobs.
Use the correct Festool saw blade for the material being cut to improve finish quality and reduce tear-out.
Keep the supplied hex key in its storage position so blade changes are quicker and less frustrating on site.

How to Use

Place the saw on a stable, level work surface or suitable Festool stand.
Fit the correct saw blade for the material and check that it is securely installed.
Connect a suitable dust extractor to the 27/36 mm extraction connection.
Select the required mitre angle, bevel angle or cutting depth setting for the application.
Use the LED spotlight and scribe mark to align the workpiece accurately.
Use the supplied bevel when transferring internal or external corner angles.
Clamp or support the workpiece properly before cutting.
Start the saw and allow the blade to reach the selected speed before entering the material.
Cut with a controlled, steady motion and allow the blade to stop before lifting the saw head fully.
After use, clean the cutting area, secure the machine and use the transport safety device before moving it.
