wow just got call from work one of my kapex 120s has just gone into self destruct mode , it broke some plastics a couple of weeks ago and the parts were replaced by festool tts uk very fast response by the way, now on a bevel cut it has cut into the plastic inserts on the guide base plate and maybe damaged the blade in the process , anyone else had a simillar problem i have been told the saw is not cutting true 90 degree cuts, well i guess it will have to go back to tts uk under warranty, i shall post the outcome .
 
update on my previous post regarding the 120 kapex , i now have the saw back from tts UK and these were the parts that were replaced, swivel lever, table top insert , limit stop this is actually the none adjustable back fence part no. 470620 , UK part number, some one on this forum put a post on with an issue of the fence and my one had the same problem hence it was replaced, laser was adjusted and the label replaced, so this should be all that was required to make the saw useable again, i have yet to give the saw a work out as i am using my other 120kapex on another jobsite but as soon as i have the chance to use the repaired saw i shall post my results on here, and i must also give credit where it's due to tts UK service as they have taken good care of me , green.
 
good to hear a positive story from the uk.
