Festool TSV 60 KEBQ-Plus-FS Plunge-Cut Saw With Scoring Function
At a Glance: Plunge-cut saw with integrated scoring function, KickbackStop, 168 mm main blade, 47 mm scoring blade and FS 1900/2 guide rail
The Festool TSV 60 KEBQ-Plus-FS is a precision plunge-cut saw with an integrated scoring function, designed for exceptionally clean panel cutting. It is made for users who need splinter-free results on both sides of the cut from the very first pass, especially when working with veneered boards, plastic-coated panels, HPL compact panels, interior doors and high-value sheet materials. The built-in scoring blade pre-cuts the surface before the main blade follows, helping to produce workshop-quality results even on site. Combined with Festool guide rails, KickbackStop safety technology and a powerful EC-TEC motor, the TSV 60 K is a serious cutting solution for cabinetmakers, shopfitters, installers and fine woodworking professionals.
Splinter-Free Panel Cutting From The First Cut
The TSV 60 K combines a plunge saw with a built-in scoring unit. The scoring blade can be precisely adjusted and switched on or off as required, giving clean cut edges on both sides without needing a separate scoring pass on a stationary saw.
Product highlights
- Integrated scoring function: Helps produce splinter-free cuts on both sides from the first cut.
- Diamond scoring saw blade: Provides long service life and consistent cut quality for demanding panel materials.
- KickbackStop safety: Reduces the risk of injury and workpiece damage caused by kickback during sawing or plunge cutting.
- 62 mm cutting depth: Gives strong cutting capacity for panel work, interior doors and materials up to 60 mm in practical applications.
- Guide rail system: Supplied with FS 1900/2 guide rail for straight, accurate and repeatable cuts.
- FS and FSK compatibility: Can be used with FS guide rails for panel cutting or FSK cross cutting guide rails for quick cross cuts.
- Mitre-capable scoring: The scoring unit swivels with the main saw for clean mitre cuts from 0° to 45°.
- EC-TEC motor: Brushless motor delivers high cutting performance with efficient power use and low maintenance.
Extra Information
- The TSV 60 KEBQ-Plus-FS is supplied with the Festool FS 1900/2 guide rail.
- The integrated scoring blade helps create splinter-free cut edges on both sides of the material.
- The scoring function can be activated or deactivated depending on the application.
- The scoring saw blade can be adjusted precisely for depth and track alignment.
- KickbackStop stops the motor within a fraction of a second when kickback is detected and the saw can be used again without replacement parts after triggering.
- The saw can be combined with FS guide rails for panel cutting and FSK cross cutting guide rails for quick cross cuts.
- Use a suitable Festool dust extractor through the 27/36 mm extraction connection for cleaner and more controlled work.
- The cut edges can be worked further straight away, making this saw especially useful before edge banding and finishing work.
Pro Tips
- Use the scoring function when cutting veneered, laminated or plastic-coated panels where both sides of the cut must stay clean.
- Make sure the scoring blade is correctly adjusted before cutting expensive board material. A small test cut can save a very costly mistake.
- Use the FS guide rail with suitable clamps or adhesive pads when cutting large panels to keep the rail steady and accurate.
- Switch the scoring function off when it is not needed to reduce unnecessary wear on the scoring blade.
- Connect dust extraction when cutting coated boards or HPL panels to keep the cutting area clean and improve visibility.
- Use the correct main saw blade for the material being cut to achieve the best finish and reduce strain on the saw.
How to Use
- Place the FS guide rail accurately on the scribe mark and secure it if required.
- Fit the correct main saw blade and scoring blade for the material being cut.
- Connect a suitable dust extractor to the 27/36 mm dust extraction connection.
- Set the required cutting depth using the depth setting and fine adjustment.
- Activate the scoring function when splinter-free cutting on both sides is required.
- Set the bevel angle if an angled cut is required.
- Place the saw on the guide rail and check that the guide jaws are adjusted without play.
- Start the saw and allow it to reach operating speed before entering the material.
- Guide the saw steadily along the rail without forcing the cut.
- Allow the blade to stop completely before lifting the saw away or making adjustments.
Features
- 1 500 W main saw power: Provides strong mains-powered cutting performance for demanding sheet and timber materials.
- 190 W scoring unit: Integrated scoring motor prepares the cut line before the main saw blade cuts through the material.
- Variable no-load speed: Main saw speed of 3 000 - 6 800 min⁻¹ and scoring speed of 22 000 min⁻¹.
- Main and scoring blades: Uses a 168 mm main saw blade and 47 mm scoring saw blade.
- Angular range: Allows bevel cuts from 0 - 45°.
- Manual scorer activation: Both the scoring blade and main saw blade can be activated or deactivated as needed.
- FastFix blade change: Spindle stop on the main saw blade and additional spindle stop for the scoring blade make blade changes easier.
- Tool-free guide jaw adjustment: Allows the saw to run on the guide rail without play for precise cutting.
- Transparent viewing window: Improves visibility of the blade and cutting area, especially for plunge cuts.
- CLEANTEC extraction: 27/36 mm dust extraction connection for cleaner work when connected to a suitable extractor.
Benefits
- Cleaner finished edges: The scoring function helps reduce splintering on both the top and bottom of the workpiece.
- Less rework: Cut edges are ready for further work straight away, saving time on trimming or sanding.
- Safer cutting: KickbackStop helps minimise the risk of kickback-related injury and damage to the workpiece.
- Workshop quality on site: Guide rail accuracy and the scoring system allow clean panel work away from a stationary machine.
- Flexible system use: Compatible with Festool FS and FSK rails for panel cutting, cross cuts and mobile site work.
- Better control: Fine depth setting, clear viewing windows and play-free guide rail adjustment support precise cutting.
- Efficient cutting: The EC-TEC motor and thin-kerf blades help work progress smoothly with less effort.
