The dual lasers clearly define the material which will be removed during the cut, and their design allows you to align cuts from the left right side of the Kapex KS 120. Three-axis adjustment controls make fine-tuning the lasers easy, and the lasers are electrically powered and require no batteries. Also, a convenient button allows them to be operated without turning on the saw.
Once you've determined your cut line, a center-positioned handle allows you to make cuts with either hand, while a two-stage trigger helps prevent accidental triggering.
Precise Miter Scale, Miter Lock, and Angle Transfer
The Kapex KS 120's etched, stainless-steel miter scale offers large, easy-to-read angles--up to 50-degrees on the left and 60-degrees on the right. Positioned far from the axis of rotation, this scale allows for setups that are accurate within fractions of a degree. And once you've identified the desired setting, the miter lock on the Kapex provides an extremely aggressive hold to prevent inadvertent movement--even when near a positive detent.
Transfer of inside and outside angles from your work piece to the Kapex KS 120 is quick and easy, thanks to the included MiterFast angle-transfer device, which provides a reflective surface for use with the saw's lasers, as well as a sturdy lock that prevents slippage and keeps measurements accurate.
Fine Bevel Adjustment and Secure Bevel Lock
The Kapex KS 120 allows for both left and right bevels, and a fine-adjustment knob controls the bevel of each cut within fractions of a degree. This bevel knob features three settings: positive detents at 0 and -45 degrees, free movement between -45 and +45 degrees, and free movement up to +/-47 degrees.
The knob rotates and engages a rack and pinion to move the head, which is counter spring balanced. This means that once you set a bevel angle there's no need to worry about it shifting before you engage the dependable bevel lock.
For added convenience, there are bevel gauges on both sides of the saw, and the large bevel-adjustment scale is easy to read.
Keyed Clamp and Compact Rail-Forward Design
For added peace of mind, your work piece is held in place by a sturdy, nonslip clamp, which is keyed to make insertion and removal of materials quick and easy. A single, lever-actuated cam-lock secures the clamp in place and a rubber pad protects your work piece, while the clamp's oblong foot provides a flat surface to place against the saw's fence.
Also contributing to the Kapex KS 120's accuracy is its rail-forward design. The saw's robust, 30-millimeter rails are set wide apart to prevent head play and ensure smooth, accurate cuts. This design also allows the saw to be placed against a wall during use, which saves valuable workspace.
Versatile Blade and Unique Cutting Positions
The Kapex KS 120 uses specially designed thin-kerf blades that reduce stress on the saw's motor, reduce noise levels, and dampen vibration for cleaner cuts in a variety of applications.
It offers expanded cutting capacity by offering access to a "special cutting position" that utilizes the back portion of the blade more effectively. This means that by simply flipping a lever to put the saw in this position, you can cut 6-5/8-inch crown molding or cut vertical materials that measure up to 4-3/4-inches by 3/4-inch.
Similarly, simply flipping a knob allows the Kapex KS 120 to cut trenches, so you can create lap joints or pieces that fit around pipes and other obstacles.
Robust Construction Includes MMC Electronics and Direct Drive Motor
Different applications place different demands on your tools, and the Kapex KS 120 offers variable speed control from 1,400 to 3,400 rpm for equally good results when working with a variety of materials. With its constant speed monitoring, the saw is able to maintain consistent blade speeds under heavy loads, which produces clean, consistent results. Soft-start technology prevents jolts at start-up and improves your control over cuts, while overload protection extends the life of the saw.
Also contributing to the Kapex KS 120's performance is a 1,600-watt direct-drive motor, which offers efficient transfer of energy to the blade and features a magnetic brake that reduces the amount of time that the blade takes to spin down.
Quick, Safe FastFix Blade Changes
With Festool's patented FastFix system, blade changes are fast, easy, and intuitive. Turning the FastFix knob locks the arbor and mechanically locks the trigger, so you don't have to worry about accidental start-ups. This allows the blade to be changed with a single hand, while a cupped steel arbor nut prevents accidental over-torquing and damage to the saw and blade.
Compact and Lightweight for Portability
Featuring magnesium-alloy base, the Kapex KS 120 is rigid and durable yet it weighs just 47 pounds--extremely light for a 10-inch miter saw. This makes it easy to move from workshop to job site and back again. Two handle locations allow you to keep the saw's center of gravity near your body while carrying it, reducing the strain on your back. Plus, the Kapex's head locks down for transport, keeping the saw compact and preventing unexpected movement from throwing you off balance.
The saw's travel-friendly design also offers onboard storage for the arbor tool and the power cord.
Integrated Dust Hood and Dust Extraction
This dependable compound miter saw also offers a swiveling dust port that directs dust away from you and your work surface, improving job-site safety and minimizing cleanup time. A pliable, rubber dust hood directs saw dust from the blade into the dust collection port as you work, arresting chips and improving the rate of capture.
This integrated port accepts both 27-millimeter and 36-millimeter hoses, and it can be used with a Festool CT dust extractor to achieve impressive 91-percent sawdust collection.
The Festool Kapex KS 120 Sliding Compound Miter Saw is backed by a three-year limited warranty and a 30-day money-back guarantee

Clearly the best : Festool Kapex KS 120 Sliding Compound Miter Saw
Just got a kapex after returning a bosh glide that had a warped table and poor bosch buyer service. Following is my take so far with the kapex and other saws that i have owned. The kapex is a good saw and so far it is working great for my furniture needs. Time will tell. The saw out of the box cut true and square and had none of the flex that the bosch had. I had an issue with the table on the first saw i received ( i am very vital of saws after my bosch incident, and festool sent me a transfer and picked up the one i received from woodcraft.....no hassel and very speedily !! ) i was very impressed with buyer aid from festool. The handle/saftey switch on the bosch was a wee clunky and awkward for me. It is similar to my dewalt ;but a wee clunkier imo. The kapex has a vert. Handle sim. To my makita, so not hard to adjust to. The lasers,which i did not think i would ever use, are turning out to be very useful and a highlight i am glad to have. The one thing i think is far ahead of the bosch and the makita 1214L i have is the head angle adjustment. In my furniture making i use a lot of angles and mixture angles in thick hardwoods and repeated accuracy is very critical. The makita is a p.i.t.a. At best and you are never quit sure what exact angle you are on. The bosch is a wee great at adjusting the angle although the head seems a bit big and clunky to move; but on the saw i received the table would move slightly/flex every time you would clamp the head down from the front. Not good in my work. The kapex has a geared head adjusted from a Handle on the front of the right slide. Seems flat and very spoton so far.The transmit slide rails are very flat and have no play what so ever. I think having the slide transmit puts the hinging closer to the cut. Seems tighter than my makita, (which is 4 yrs old). For me the hinge mech on the bosch seems to far back and seemed like it had a lot more flex with all the hinge points, especially when the saw was pulled out. The miter/angle tool included with the festool seems great; but i do very wee trim work exterior of the shop, so not sure if i will ever indeed use it. If i had to take a saw to the jobsite day after day, the bosch is big and heavy......its a beast and i would not want to lug it around. The kapex is contract and lighter. Trim work in a house i would take the kapex. Rough framing were the saw could be left...i would take the bosch. But my saw never leaves my shop so... Weight and compactness,are not issues for me. Accuracy is #1, and so far the kapex seems to be the most spoton saw out there of the ones i have tried, for me. I had both saws hooked up to the same shop vac, and the dust range was far great on the kapex. Again i have a big dusty shop ..always... So this is not a big issue for me. I have never hooked my saw up to a vac before... Maybe i will now... It was kind of nice. the bosah cutting capacity. It is not 6.5 " . Included in the by hand is a slip of paper that warns of the saw arrival in sense with the fence during some comb. Miter cuts. The tilted capacity is not more than 1.5 " on the right. Not good for me. Last the bosch is made in china.. ...blade and all. I try to buy american or at least fair trade when pos. My other bosch routers and drills are made in the usa or switzerland....so i was a bit surprised to find a "made in china" saw. No wonder it is economy than the kapex..........Price is all the time an issue; but for me if the kapex works great and is more of a delight to use .... Every day.... It is well worth it. The kapex is high-priced and worth every dime to me. Just a few observations on the 2 saws after wee use.
