Engineered for precision and portability, the KAPEX KSC 60 cordless sliding compound miter saw delivers highly accurate cross cuts across a wide range of materials and angles. With miter capabilities up to 60° on both sides and bevel adjustments up to 46° right and 47° left, this saw provides exceptional flexibility for intricate trim work, framing, and finish carpentry.
The robust twin-column guide system, supported by dual bearings, ensures the saw blade glides smoothly with unwavering precision—eliminating deflection or wobble, regardless of the cutting angle. Paired with a high-performance dual battery system and a brushless EC-TEC motor, the KSC 60 offers impressive cordless runtime and cutting power that rivals corded saws.
Thoughtfully designed features like variable speed control, integrated LED shadow cutline, dust bag, and compact footprint make this saw the ultimate blend of portability, durability, and Festool-grade accuracy.
Key Benefits:
• Precision Cutting System – Twin-column guide with dual bearings guarantees flawless blade guidance for accurate, stable cuts without drift or play.
• Wide Angle Range – Bevel angles from -2° to 47° left and 46° right; miter angles from 0° to 60° on both sides, covering virtually any application.
• Cordless Power, Corded Performance – Dual 18V battery setup and EC-TEC brushless motor deliver full-day performance with reduced weight and zero cord constraints.
• Fast, Accurate Setup – Positive miter detents and intuitive bevel adjustment with locking clamp ensure repeatable, accurate angle settings with ease.
• Shadow Cut Line – Integrated LED shadow light precisely outlines the blade’s path on the workpiece for exact alignment and cut visibility.
• Adaptable Speed Control – Variable speed settings allow matching the blade RPM to the material for optimal cutting results across wood, trim, and composite materials.
• Enhanced Dust Collection – Integrated dust bag efficiently captures dust at the source—ideal for clean, mobile operation without requiring an extractor.
• Extended Work Support – Pull-out extension tables stabilize long workpieces; adjustable feet align with Systainer SYS 3 M 112 or SYS 1 for flush support.
• Compact Footprint – Space-saving design with flush-mounted guide rods and built-in carrying handles ensures easy transport and minimal storage space.
Notable Features:
• Mobility-focused design: Lightweight, with central handles and a compact frame—ideal for transporting between job sites.
• Adjustable bevels: Bevels lock securely with front-facing controls and clear scales for rapid setup.
• Extension tables: Individually extendable to provide balanced support for longer boards and panels.
• Cutting depth limiter: Allows for quick, repeatable grooving or dado-style cuts.
• Bevel transfer tool (SM-KS): Easily capture and replicate interior or exterior angles for precise trim work.
• Fast blade change: Arbor lock mechanism with on-board Allen key storage allows quick, safe blade swaps.
• Left- and right-handed operation: Centered handle and switch position provide equal comfort for all users.
• Dual-speed feedback electronics: Protect the motor while maintaining speed under load.
Applications:
• Ideal for on-site and mobile woodworking projects
• Cutting boards and panels up to 12" x 2-3/8" (305 x 60 mm)
• Trimming lumber, casing, and finish materials up to 2-3/8" (60 mm) thick
• Accurate miter and bevel cuts for baseboard, crown molding, casing, and cabinetry
• Compound angle cuts without calculations using the bevel transfer tool
