Hi, I wonder if anyone has had a problem with their TS55 feeling a little loose as it moves along the rail?
Mine is a REBQ, about 10 years old now I guess. When I make cut, I find that unless I use lateral pressure to hold the saw left against the guide, the cut deviates 1-2mm away from the splinter guard.
Of course, I have tried adjusting the 2 cam knobs on the base plate but it doesn’t seem to help. I was thinking maybe the black  rubber/plastic strips that the cam knobs push against the rail might be worn. Has anyone else found a solution to this one?
 
Sounds like the black strips.  They are a wear item and can be ordered thru Festool.
