PROPERTIES & ADVANTAGES
Thanks to the optimum weight distribution of the COMPACTCUT 501 E, the 15 kW/400 V electrical
motor provides for excellent cutting power.
Due to the compact, easy-to-handle design, every corner of the construction site can be
reached
The LISSMAC electrical floor saws are low-noise and therefore particularly suited for work on
and in buildings
The saw blade is continuously lowered via a throttle with a cutting depth indicator which
prevents damage to the saw blade
Optimum saw blade shaft speed
As a standard, the front segment of the saw blade guard can be flipped up for overcuts
Flush wall cuts can be executed in compliance with norms
Handle bars can be individually attached in two different heights
Can be easily converted from left-hand to right-hand cutting
Stable H tracking pointer
The rear bogie wheel is outside the saw cut. This makes it easy to deepen cuts in a second
pass.
Due to the optimum weight distribution on the front wheels, a high level of tracking and saw
precision is achieved
