Connecting electric power tools

WARNING
Risk of injury
► Observe the maximum appliance socket
connected load (see chapter "Technical da­
ta")
► Switch off the electric power tool.
– Always use the socket on the machine for
the purpose specified!
► Connect the electric power tool to the appli­
ance socket [1-3].
8.2

Connecting pneumatic tools

WARNING
Risk of injury
► Switch off the air tool.
If the compressed air module [1-2] (496141) is
installed, the automatic switch-on function of
the mobile dust extractor also works in combi­
nation with pneumatic tools.
We also recommend installing the VE service
unit (495886). The service unit filters and lubri­
cates the compressed air and enables an ad­
justment of the air pressure. An IAS adapter
(454757) is available to connect Festool pneu­
matic 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.
8.3

Temperature cut-out

A temperature cut-out switches the mobile dust
extractor off when it reaches a critical tempera­
ture to prevent overheating.
► A temperature cut-out switches the mobile
dust extractor off when it reaches a critical
temperature to prevent overheating.
► Switch off the mobile dust extractor, allow
to cool for about 5 minutes then switch on
again.
Not possible to switch on: contact Festool
service workshop.
8.4 Adjusting the suction power
You can use the suction power adjuster [1-8] to
adapt the machine suction power to different
applications.
8.5 AUTOClean - Cleaning the main filter
(only versions with AutoClean)
To maintain a constant suction power when ex­
tracting fine dust, you can adjust the frequency
12
of the automatic [1-7] cleaning system in infin­
ite variables using the rotary knob. Always use
the automatic cleaning system in combination
with a disposal bag (in line with dust class 'M'
requirements).
Before performing wet extraction tasks
or working with a filter bag, set the [1-7]
rotary knob to position 0.
► Set the automatic cleaning function to the
highest setting when [1-7] extracting large
quantities of dust.
Manual cleaning
If the suction power decreases, cleaning
can be started manually by turning the
switch [1-9] to the AC symbol positioned on ei­
ther side of the switch.
We recommend cleaning the main filter com­
pletely if severely clogged:
► Set the suction power adjuster [1-8] to the
maximum setting.
► Cover the end of the nozzle or suction hose
with your hand for 10 seconds.
► Turn the switch [1-9] to the AC symbol.
When the CT-VS closing slide is used (or­
der no.: 497926), the filter can be cleaned
fully without removing the connected elec­
tric power tools.
In intensive applications that generate adherent
dust, it may be necessary to clean the filter ele­
ment mechanically under certain circumstan­
ces (extract). Wear a dust mask!
8.6 AUTOClean - Cleaning the main filter
(only versions with AutoClean)
To maintain a constant suction power when ex­
tracting fine dust, you can adjust the frequency
of the automatic [1-7] cleaning system in infin­
ite variables using the rotary knob. Always use
the automatic cleaning system in combination
with a disposal bag (in line with dust class 'M'
requirements).
Only for CT 48 E AC: switch on using the rotary
knob [1-7].
Before performing wet extraction tasks
or working with a filter bag, set the [1-7]
rotary knob to position 0.
► Set the automatic cleaning function to the
highest setting when [1-7] extracting large
quantities of dust.
