Festool CSC SYS 50 parallel guide fine adjustment

Boost MeIf you like this model consider boosting it. Each boost is worth ~50 grams of refill filament so every 20 boosts I could order a refill of PLA or PETG from the BambuStore - thanks for your support!

Based on this (german language) Video from Jonas Winkler: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeB0Z8PC1xg

 

This a fine adjustment jig for the Festool CSC SYS 50 parallel side fence. If you want to adjust the cut width in small portions this may help. Just insert the jig in the rail, push it against the parallel side fence and fix it with a clamp. Now loosen the the parallel side fence and use the M6 screw with a wingnut to increase or decrease your cut width ... this is 1mm per full rotation. Now push the parallel side fence against the screw, fasten the parallel side fence and you are good to go.

 

You need two M6 nuts, one M6 wingnut and a M6 screw with a thread length of 55mm or more. One M6 nut goes into the slot in the jig, then fasten the screw and add the other M6 nut and the wingnut as shown in the photos.

 

I used Bambu PETG Basic in green, closely matching Festool green, PLA is also a suitable alternative!
