Angle stop for what?

[per@landberger.com]

Hi I am trying to identify this angle stop, and what systems it is for. I got it with an used ATF 55 I bought. It has a bar on the back which will slide into the "tracks" on my Basis bench. But where did it come from originally, and what's the part number? It is old enough to have the name Festo, not Festool but is has no part number or anything else.[attachimg=1]

Looks like it might be for the track saw track to cut angles. Does it slide into the track ?

Very cool, thanks for sharing the images, Guy!

Makes me appreciate how compact the miter settings are on the FSK rails.

TSO didn't come up with this idea, just improved it hmmm.

I saw Sedge using the original Festool parallel guides. something I thought other companies came up with as well.
