The charger TRC 3 can be used to charge all
Festool battery packs of the BPS and BPC se-
ries. The charger automatically detects the type
of the inserted battery (NiCd, NiMH or LiIon). A
microprocessor controls the charging process in
line with the charging state, temperature and
voltage of the battery pack.
The LED
[3-1]
on the charger indicates the re-
spective operating status of the charger.
LED yellow - lit continuously
Charger is ready to use.
LED green - flashing quickly
Battery pack is charged to maximum capacity.
LED green - flashing slowly
Battery pack is charged with reduced current,
LiIon is charged to 80 %.
LED green - lit continuously
Battery pack is fully charged, or charging is not
started again, because the battery is charged
to more than 80 %.
LED red - flashing
General fault display, e.g. incomplete contact,
short circuit, battery pack faulty, etc.
LED red - lit continuously
Battery temperature is outside the permitted
range.

Selecting saw blade
Only use saw blades with a T-shank. The
saw blade should not be longer than that
required for the intended cut. To ensure
safe guidance, during the cut the saw blade
should emerge at the bottom of the workpiece
at every point.
L Only use cross-set saw blades when using
the angle and adapter table. We recommend
Festool saw blade S 105/4 FSG.
Inserting saw blade
Always disconnect the battery pack from
the machine before every tool change!
X
If necessary, push the chip guard
wards.
X
Push the saw blade
far as the stop with its teeth in cutting direc-
tion [4-2].
X
Turn the saw blade
wise until it engages.
The guidance jaws adjust automatically to the
saw blade used.
Check that the saw blade is secure. A
loose saw blade can fall out and cause an
injury.
L In the case of very short saw blades, it is ad-
visable to remove the saw table (see chap-
ter 7.4) before inserting the saw blade.
Ejecting saw blade
L When ejecting the saw blade, hold the elec-
tric power tool such that no persons or ani-
mals can be injured.
X
Push the saw blade ejection
as far as the stop.
If the saw blade is not ejected: run jigsaw 3
