Festool CS 70 LA Ripping Fence

At a Glance: Precision longitudinal stop with fine adjustment, movable stop profile and rear clamp for CS 70 and MFT/3-VL applications.

The Festool CS 70 LA Stopper is a precision parallel side fence designed to help guide workpieces accurately during longitudinal cuts. It is built for controlled, repeatable cutting where a straight, secure reference edge makes all the difference between “close enough” and properly accurate.

This stopper is especially useful when working with larger workpieces that need to be guided lengthways. The movable stop profile allows the fence to be positioned for different material thicknesses, while the fine adjustment system lets the user dial in the cutting position more accurately. The front operation and opposing rear clamp help keep the fence stable, secure and easier to set up.

Precision work. Exact cuts.

The CS 70 LA is made for repeatable parallel cuts. It clamps at the front and rear of the table to help prevent side movement of the stop surface, giving the user a more reliable guide when ripping or cutting lengthways.

Product highlights

Designed for parallel cuts: Helps guide long workpieces accurately when cutting lengthways.
Fine adjustment: Allows the fence position to be set more precisely before final clamping.
Opposing clamp: Clamps at the rear as well as the front to help keep the fence stable during cutting.
Movable stop profile: Can be adjusted or removed, and positioned for thinner or thicker workpieces.
Convenient front operation: Simple operation from the front of the table makes setup quicker and more comfortable.
Quick attachment: Designed for fast fitting to compatible Festool saw table and workbench setups.

Extra Information

The CS 70 LA is a Festool stopper / longitudinal stop accessory for compatible Festool cutting and workbench systems.
The movable stop profile can be clamped in a low position for thinner workpieces or in a higher position for thicker workpieces.
The fine adjustment system allows small setting corrections before the fence is finally clamped.
The accessory is designed to clamp at both the front and rear table edges to reduce lateral movement of the stop surface.
This is an accessory only. Saw, work table and other cutting equipment are not included unless specifically supplied as part of another set.

Pro Tips

After setting the fence, always tighten both the front and rear clamping points before making the cut.
Use the fine adjustment for final positioning instead of trying to bump the fence into place by hand.
For thin workpieces, set the stop profile in the lower position to keep the guide practical and stable.
For thicker stock, use the higher stop profile position for better support against the workpiece edge.
Make a quick test cut on scrap material when accuracy is critical, especially before cutting expensive boards.

How to Use

Attach the rotary knob to the longitudinal stop before fitting the accessory.
Open the rotary knob and clamping levers.
Mount the stop to the side of the compatible saw table or work surface.
Slide the stop to the required cutting position.
Align the stopper while closing the front rotary knob.
Close the rear clamping lever to secure the stop at the back edge of the table.
Adjust the movable sliding fence lengthways or remove it if required.
Use the low stop profile position for thinner workpieces and the high stop profile position for thicker workpieces.
For fine adjustment, loosen the front rotary knob, open the rear clamping lever and lock the fine adjustment clamp.
Use the fine adjustment wheel to move the fence to the exact position required.
After final adjustment, tighten the fence clamps before cutting.

Features

Self-adjusting parallel side fence: Provides a controlled reference edge for accurate longitudinal cuts.
Fine adjustment wheel: Enables small setting corrections for more precise cutting widths.
Front rotary knob: Clamps the stop to the front edge of the table.
Rear clamping lever: Secures the stop at the rear edge of the table for added stability.
Movable sliding fence: The stop profile can be moved lengthways or removed when required.
High and low profile positioning: The sliding fence can be set low for thinner workpieces or high for thicker workpieces.
Compatible system accessory: Intended for use with Festool CS 70 and MFT/3-VL setups.

Benefits

Improved cutting accuracy: Helps maintain a straight and consistent guide when making rip cuts or parallel cuts.
More repeatable results: Fine adjustment makes it easier to return to a precise setting when cutting multiple pieces.
Better workpiece support: The stop helps guide longer material more confidently along the cutting path.
Reduced fence movement: Front and rear clamping help prevent unwanted side movement of the stop surface.
Faster setup: Front-side operation and quick attachment make the accessory practical for regular workshop use.

Application

Parallel cuts.
Longitudinal cuts.
Guiding longer workpieces when cutting lengthways.
Accurate repeat cuts on compatible Festool saw table setups.
Workshop use with compatible CS 70 and MFT/3-VL systems.

Safety

Wear eye, ear and dust protection suitable for the cutting application and material being processed.
Always read and follow the operating instructions and assembly notes before fitting or using the stopper.
Make sure the stopper is correctly mounted to the side of the compatible table before cutting.
Ensure the front and rear clamping points are properly tightened before use.
Keep hands safely away from the saw blade and cutting path at all times.
Do not allow the saw blade to come into contact with the rip fence or cross stop.
Check that the distance between the saw blade and fence is suitable for the intended cut.
Use suitable support for very narrow cutting widths where required.
Do not use the accessory if it is damaged, bent or unable to clamp securely.
Recycle accessories and packaging responsibly according to applicable local regulations.
