The rip fence is a good addition to the TS 55. Especially with some work it is sometimes easier with a rip fence - sometimes just remove the tongue or groove profile of woods, which also are often longer than the existing guide rail. Rip fence ran, going on and completed. Due to the double fastening of the rip fence by provided thumbscrews on the saw base is this this so very precise and the cut is to the guide rail in nothing. Furthermore, the rip fence can be used as table extension (for angle cuts the saw tilts thus no longer as fast) or just to to get your bearings on a guide rail misused eg on a wall or an angle profile. Festool has naturally again thought along and built a "plug-in / parking" for the rip fence in the Systainer the TS. Thus, it is always there and ready to hand, he woebei also when removing the saw not in the way when he is not even required.
