Scheppach PL55 Plunge Saw, 1200W, 160mm Circular Saw, 55mm Depth, 1.4m Track Rails, 45° Tilt, Cuts Wood, Metal, Plastic, Flooring

Good sturdy and heavy. Was worried this was too heavy to start with. Never used a plunge saw before but ultimately I’ve used by plunging first off the edge and then sawing down the track. My first attempt at plunging ‘on’ the wood caused kick back. Later read in the instructions that you need an anti-kick back part which is sold separately! And sadly quite expensive as a separate accessory tool item also on Amazon. But without this was no problem for what I was building and therefore used the saw like a normal circular saw with the blade fully down before cutting. Built under stairs cupboards so a multitude of different sized timber and MDF boards. All cut smoothly and with no scorch marks. Had to tighten the blade as after a few days cutting the blade was spinning longer to slow and stop. A quick tighten with the Allen key and back to perfect again. The double track is a good length but extra can be purchased if needed. But I worked around using the 1.4 metre track which at no point did I need to clamp. The track gripped to the MDF just fine for perfect straight cuts. I vacuumed the bottom of the track with the brush attachment to keep any sawdust away and ensure the grip maintained. Overall very happy (but as this is the first plunge saw I am merely confirming happy with price and quality) I can’t compare to other products.

Looks like a decent bit of kit, but DPD damaged the packaging and lost the rail connector, effectively rendering the saw unusable out of the box. As expected, Amazon provide no meaningful support for this product, and contacting the seller was effectively impossible due to the chatbot barrier. I didn’t want the hassle of returning the entire unit, given its size and weight. Instead, I’ve had to order the accessory kit containing the missing connector at my own expense just to get the saw operational. The saw itself appears solid, but the fulfilment and after-sales experience have been poor.

Absolute brilliant plunge saw with track and for the price compared to the fretol one you can’t knock it for quality for the price . And as always swift delivery by Amazon.

The bad points first - setting depth is fiddly as the stop knob just doesn't seem to run smoothly. That mechanism feels very cheap and plasticky so not sure how long it will hold up for if used. On the plus - brilliant value for money and the cut quality and ease of use with the guide rail is superb. I needed the depth as I use it for oak / teak tabletops and furniture - and it goes through them without any issues and tracks really well even when just using the rubber strips on the bottom of the rail to prevent movement. Make sure you're using it correctly - get behind it and push forward to ensure a good cut - but the same holds true for any track saw, if you don't, and it moves - it's not the saw's fault. Really good value for the price paid for it and expecting it to last well from what I've seen over the last few weeks of fairly heavy usage

This is my first plunge saw. I've found it easy to use. It fits the track well, with once adjusted, no shimmy, giving a very straight cut. Blade replacement is easy (had to insert a special blade to cut compact laminate). No track clamps are supplied with the set. I used a pair from another track saw I had. Would recommend buying track clamps if you don't already have some.

Got this for Christmas, it's a sturdy piece of kit but I've had a few issues. Firstly the plug on UK spec is bad. It's an eu->UK conversion that broke on my first use, the power cable is short and it resulted in the cable being pulled and that was sufficient to break the plug. Secondly the guide wasn't finished correctly, on joining the two pieces I found that the saw wouldnt easily traverse the join. I was able to remediate this by swopping the two seconds around moving the problem piece to the end I'd not use. Having said that, the saw is very sturdy, the cuts are accurate and it doesn't lack power. I've hooked up my dust extraction and it has significantly reduced the dust spread, but there will still be some. All in all I'm happy with the product, but a little better quality would have made this a 5*

The saw was awkward to operate but the track was a disaster. It had rubber down the cutting side so until you have cut the full length and the blade has cut off the rubber you cannot see where to cut. Then each time the saw gets to the join in the track the saw gets stuck and you need to very carefully lift the front of the saw over the join in the track.

Good enough ! I've got some have jobs with it and weel done. Just the track I'd say could be better. It holds the saw at the joint, so it could be better made.

As described , does an excellent job. Except , two sections of track meet less than perfectly which stalls the saw as it passes along the track.

Très bien pour un bricoleur averti, fait parfaitement le job.

Gute Säge, man sollte aber das mitgelieferte Sägeblatt direkt tauschen, das taugt nicht. Ja, die sägeuist laut, aber dafür trägt man (hoffentlich) Gehörschutz...

Je décide de laisser un commentaire après avoir pris le temps d'en lire certains que je trouve abusifs. ce kit est fourni avec 2 rails de 70cm qui peuvent être solidarisés par une réglette fournie. cela fonctionne très bien a la condition de : - couper au cutter la lèvre de caoutchouc entre les réglettes - prendre soin de régler le jeu entre la plateau de la scie et la réglette. très franchement les serres joint vendus séparément ne sont pas à la hauteur du reste du produit leur préférer les serres joints makita https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B004Z55D2G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 qui eux sont topissimes pour 34€ au lieu des 31€ de https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B00RTNDA08/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 La fiabilité et la précision de coupe sont bluffantes même sur de grandes longueurs j'ai coupé du chêne massif de 45mm sur 2500mm avec les 2 rails de 700 plus le rail de 1400. J'obtiens une précision de coupe à 1mm des cotes portées sur le bois quand on prend le temps de bien positionner les réglettes. A la première utilisation faites une coupe sur 1 ou 2 cm du bord a couper pour couper le caoutchouc de la réglette cela fait vous aurez le point de référence exact pour vos prochaines coupes. Un petit conseil supplémentaire ne laissez pas les barrettes de liaison sur les rails si vous ne les utilisez pas, les vis ont une fâcheuse tendance à ce dévisser toutes seules avec les vibrations si elles ne sont pas serrées fortement et vous risquez de les perdre. Sur les15 premiers jours j'ai passé plus de 7 heures a couper du bois massif avec cette scie basculante et je suis enchanté de la précision de ses coupes et de son aisance d'utilisation. Oui je la recommande à 200%
