Overview
Festool 577001 CSC SYS 50 Cordless Table Saw Underframe UG UG-CSC-SYS is a dedicated underframe cart for the Festool CSC SYS 50 system. This is a table saw underframe cart designed for transporting, supporting, and setting up the CSC SYS 50 cordless table saw on site. Model Number: 577001. If you are doing installation work, punch-list work, remodeling, or mobile finish carpentry, this accessory matters because it turns the saw into a more complete jobsite station instead of just a portable tool you set on the floor.
The big advantage here is that it is not just a stand. Festool built the UG-CSC-SYS as a 3-in-1 solution: hand cart, worktable, and underframe support. In hand cart mode, it can move a tower of Systainers up to 176 lbs from the truck to the workspace. Once you are there, the foldaway legs deploy quickly to create a 22-27/32 in x 22-27/32 in work surface. For installers and service crews, that saves time because the same piece of equipment that gets your gear inside becomes your work support.
When paired with the CSC SYS 50 cordless table saw, the underframe is where the design really makes sense. The worktop has the correct locating points so the saw can be positioned securely, and it raises the setup to a more comfortable working height. Festool lists the high tabletop height at 26-1/4 in, and the product description notes that it puts the CSC SYS 50 at an ergonomic working height of 90 cm when used as intended. That is the kind of detail that matters on a long day of repetitive cutting because you are not constantly bending over a saw on the floor.
The worktop is more than a mounting surface. It uses the familiar Festool hole pattern so materials can be clamped down with compatible screw clamps and lever clamps. That gives the UG-CSC-SYS a second job as a compact mobile worktable when the saw is not mounted. For trim pieces, flooring cuts, punch materials, and small part prep, that is a lot more useful than a basic rolling base that only does one thing.
Jobsite practicality is strong here. Folded up, the underframe takes up very little room in the vehicle. One adjustable foot helps compensate for uneven floors, which is worth having when you are working in unfinished rooms or on surfaces that are not perfectly flat. The base plate that serves as the transport platform also becomes support for longer material during cuts, which makes the whole system more stable and more usable when handling stock that would otherwise want to tip or sag.
As far as compatibility goes, this is purpose-built for the Festool CSC SYS 50 cordless table saw. It is not presented as a universal table saw stand, and that is actually the point. Festool designed it around that saw and the Systainer workflow, so if you are already using Festool portable systems, the fit is direct and the transport logic is built in. If you are not on the CSC SYS 50 platform, this is too specialized to buy as a generic cart.
Who should buy it? Pros who move their saw setup often and want a cleaner, faster mobile cutting station. Finish carpenters, remodelers, flooring installers, cabinet installers, and service contractors will get the most out of it. If your CSC SYS 50 lives on site, gets rolled in with other Systainers, and needs to set up fast in finished spaces, the UG-CSC-SYS makes a strong case. If you just need a general stand for mixed tools, this accessory is more specialized than you need.
Move the Saw and Your Systainers in One Trip
If you are tired of making extra trips from the truck, this is the feature that earns its keep. The underframe works as a transport cart first, so your saw setup fits into the same workflow as the rest of your Systainer stack.
- Hand truck capacity is rated up to 176 lbs (80 kg)
- Systainers engage securely on the base plate and can be secured with a lashing strap
Set Up a Compact Worktable Fast
The foldaway-leg design turns this accessory into a small mobile workbench when the saw is not mounted. That is useful for clamping trim, supporting parts, or handling quick fitting work without dragging in a larger bench.
- Table dimensions measure 22-27/32 in x 22-27/32 in (580 x 580 mm)
- Worktable load capacity is rated up to 220 lbs (100 kg)
Built Around the CSC SYS 50
This is not a generic rolling stand. It is meant to support the CSC SYS 50 cordless table saw securely and put it at a more usable height, while the lower section helps support longer stock during cutting.
- High tabletop height is 26-1/4 in (677 mm)
- Low working position is 9-21/32 in (245 mm) with legs folded in for close-to-ground use
Stores Small, Works Stable
A mobile setup only helps if it is easy to bring along. The folded form keeps the footprint down in the van, and the adjustable foot helps keep the platform steady on imperfect floors once you get to work.
- Overall dimensions are 42 x 22-27/32 x 9-21/32 in (1067 x 580 x 245 mm)
- One foldaway leg includes an adjustable foot to compensate for uneven surfaces

Pro Tip
If you are using the CSC SYS 50 for flooring or other low-level work, leave the legs folded in instead of forcing a full-height setup. That keeps the saw lower at 9-21/32 in and lets the base plate help support longer material without adding another stand.
