new version of ts55?

[timmyd79]

Hi people,
Just thought you may want to know about a video I found on Vimeo app. I was researching the new Ks60 mitre saw and stumbled across it. I think it's a pre production promo video.  New to posting so can't work how to show the link.  If someone can help.... Seems to have an updated depth gauge and similar features to mafells' track saw with the scribe cut. Also more videos on new mitre saw on there.

Copy and paste the web address perhaps?

I just searched Vimeo for TS55 and it returned two results - both videos were over 2 years old.

Welcome timmyd79  [smile]

The page is here >>>https://vimeo.com/channels/1141931/videos

And the language is Danish I think.

Thought it was Danish but had the volume down. Thanks for posting the link. Am not too handy with tech.  Happy viewing Foggers [eek 8)

Just watched the video. You have to have a Vimeo account. Then it should play. That KS60 looks nice! Maybe I didn't watch the right TS55 video although I see reference to a TS55-SE. Couldn't see any new features tho. But that may be because I just took receipt on a new TS55REQ yesterday to replace my TS55 (hmmm, wonder if my timing sucks)

In the video titled TS55-SE you can see the T.-Nr. 500602. Which according to EKAT is the middle revision of the TS55-REBQ. It's also the number my saw (bought last year) has. I can't see any new thing in the video. Unless there is an other video this just seems to be a new video for a "old" TS55 REBQ.

At 2.09 in the video the saw seems to have a -1° green operation lever.  I don't have that on mine.  It's an req uk 110v. Take it they must have a mid production update.  Feel a bit  [unsure]. Sorry for any confusion.

I think that lever was a fix to the soft angle stop problem discussed here. The lever was added when the TSC55 (battery version) came out and also added to a revision of the TS55.

What confuses me when looking at the EKAT though is what is up with T.Nr. 500898. According to the drawings in EKAT the lever is gone again. Does someone actually have a TS55 with that T.Nr. and can shed some light on this?

Thanks for that I thought I'd found the all new secret prototype demos.  Nice features on the new Kapex tho. 8)

They are Euro Market revisions/updates. Nothing new
