Difference between Trion jig saws

[kfitzsimons]

What is the difference between the models PS 300, PS 300 EQ and PS 300 EQ-Plus? My catalogs go back to 2009 and they are all the PS 300 EQ as far as I can tell. There's no mention of the "plus" in the catalogs. The blade guide system is my biggest concern. Has that changed over the last 10 years? Thanks.

Here is a link to the Trion Plus on the FestoolUSA site.
I see no difference. The picture shows a Euro cord, but it has the same part number as the regular Trion saw on dealer web sites.

Well Festool does have different owners manuals for the saws.  [tongue]

I also noticed that the Plus version has the new bayonet hose fitting. [crying]

I missed that.

The 'Plus' is just the systainer. And 'Q' is for some part of the electronics.

Did they go to a new number with the bayonet fitting?

PS= Pendel Stichsäge (German for:  pendulum-action jigsaw)
PSB= Pendel Stichsäge Bügelgriff (German for: pendulum-action jigsaw bow-type-grip)

I have no idea what the 300 stands for.

E = Electronic (variable speed)
Q = Quicklock? Quickconnect? (plug-it cord)
Plus = in systainer

300 is here probably just some follow up number, seeing that the next model was PS-400 and the preceding one PS-200

E=Electronic
Q=Plug It
Plus =Systainer

Got that straight from the 2010 Dutch catalog  [tongue]
