MFT/3:

Setting up and assembly

Accessory attachments can be secured at different points on the multifunction table to enable different working positions.

In the standard working position, the user stands along one side of the bench [Fig. 2]. In these operating instructions, this side of the bench is referred to as the "front".

Step 1: Setting up

Take the table out of the box. Screw on the knobs [2-3] until the stop is reached. Unfold the foldaway legs and tighten the knobs on the joints to secure. Turn the end cap [2-1] on the right to adjust the length of the leg and compensate for an uneven floor surface.

NOTE: The corner feet [2-2] are fitted with rubber caps so that the bench stands securely when the legs are folded away.

Step 2: Trim splinter guard

Now you are ready to set up the guide rail system. The first thing to do is to trim the splinter guard [3-4] of the guide rail using your Festool plunge-cut saw.

Place your saw on top of the guide rail and tune it to the track on the rail using a screwdriver [3-3] to loosen or tighten the front and back set screws so that there is no play between the sole plate of the saw and he raised portion of the guide rail. However, make sure that the saw still glides smoothly on top of the guide rail.
