At MAFELL you can find the plunge cut saw that plunges safely, because the riving knife is where it should be during plunge cutting: at the saw. A 1100 W (1.5 hp) MAFELL-made motor is the heart of this portable circular saw. The aim here was to design a robust, easy-to-handle machine for the joiner and carpenter suitable for everyday use. The highlight: novel twin-located height adjustment, with which the machine can also be used as a plunge cut saw - the riving knife disappears into the protective cover when plunge cutting. Like all our portable circular saws, the KSP 55 F also fits onto the MAFELL guide rail system. As a package this is so reasonably priced that sawing without a guide rail will become the exception.

• Plunge Cut System with
• Long service life
• Lightweight
• With the MAFELL KSP 55 F, it is no longer necessary to unscrew the riving knife - the offers you optimum user-friendliness and safety when plunge cutting (see page 14).
• Parallel guide fence with dual function - on both machine sides as parallel guide fence and as additional bench support, e.g. for bevel cuts.
• High quality standard means lower machine costs and longer service life.
• Healthy working environment - due to a clean workplace and a clear view of the saw blade thanks to optimal dust extraction with the MAFELL S 25 M and S 50 M Vacuum Units.
• The saw blade is positioned 2 mm (1/16 in.) above the lower edge of the machine base plate by means of the stable, smooth-running height rail.
• In this position, the workpiece is no longer in contact with the saw blade.
• This position is secured against unintentional plunge cutting by an upper dead centre (KSP series, KSS 330) or an automatic detent switch (KST).
• Without moving the machine forward, the saw blade can now be plunged directly into the material.
• The sprung automatically remains in the protective cover and rests on the workpiece.
• Optimum control of the plunge cutting process due to:
• As soon as there is a forward movement of the machine, the automatically snaps into the saw cut.
• This ensures maximum user safety when sawing.
• Disassembly and re assembly of the riving knife, which was necessary up to now in order to be able to carry out plunge cuts, is no longer required!
• The riving knife always remains on the machine!

The guide rail can be tightly fixed to the workpiece with the screw clamp. It can be used for both 90? and angle cutting.
