All metric dimensions are binding. Sawblade dimensions are critical for safe

operation, and are presented in metric units only.

The TS 55 has several features to protect the motor from misuse.

The TS 55 has thermal overload protection. If the motor overheats from extended heavy use, the electronic controller will shut down the motor until it cools down. This is to protect the motor from permanent damage. Once the thermal overload has activated, simply wait a

few minutes for the motor to cool down before resuming operation. The thermal overload resets automatically when the temperature returns to normal.

The TS 55 also has over-current protection. If the electrical current to the motor exceeds the safe limit (such as what happens with a pinched blade), the motor is temporarily disabled to protect itself. The motor is automatically reset when the power trigger is released.
