Connecting electric power tools
WARNING
Risk of injury
X
Observe the maximum connected loads
for the appliance socket (see chapter
"Technical data").
X
Make sure that the power tool is switched
off before connecting or disconnecting.
X
Connect the electric power tool to the ap-
pliance socket [1-3].
Following installation of the socket module
(included in the scope of delivery of the CTL
26 E SD), you can use the mobile dust ex-
tractor as follows:
– CTL 26 E SD E/A: Socket module with au-
tomatic switch-on function for the use of
two electric power tools: e.g. 2 sanders, 1
jigsaw + 1 sander
– CTL 26 E SD: Socket module with perma-
nent power supply for use as extension ca-
ble: e.g. charger, lamp, etc.
L The total power drawn, independently of
the socket type, must not exceed the
printed value.
7.2
Connecting pneumatic tools
WARNING
Risk of injury
X
Make sure that the pneumatic tool is
switched off before connecting or discon-
necting.
If the compressed air module
included in scope of delivery of CTL 36 E LE,
CTL 36 E LE AC) is installed, the automatic
switch-on function of the mobile dust extrac-
tor also works in combination with air tools.
We also recommend installing the VE service
unit (495886). The service unit filters and lu-
bricates the compressed air and enables an
adjustment of the air pressure. An IAS
adapter (454757) is available to connect Fes-
tool air tools to the IAS system.
The operating pressure of the tool must be 6
bar for the automatic switch-on unit to func-
tion correctly.
