Hi everybody. My first post-Shame it has to be in the problem section.
I've been lurking for a while and picked up some excellent info. Thanks to all.
I teetered on the edge of the green slippery slope for ages and finally flung myself down-I just got a Domino 500,ts55r, mft3 and ct26 as well as some clamps ,qwas dogs etc. I feel the need for a router and sander now also-mmmm. ;D
Anyhoo-the issue.
My new Ts55r Zero Degree bevel stop is not accurately set.
It actually stops at about - 0.5 degrees.
When I pull out the little green knob to defeat the stop it barely allows a hair more movement.(towards -1 degree)
It says in the manual (if you could call it a manual :
) that it is factory set and to return saw to festool service if it needs adjustment. I will do this if I have to but I would be grateful if anyone knows a way to correct which I can do myself.
Atm I have marked actual zero (determined with reference square and numerous test cuts-pita) on the scale and everything works fine if I lock it there by eye.
Any ideas??
