Connection And Operation; Connecting The Control Cable; Connecting The Mains Cable - Festool ASA 5000 Manual De Instrucciones Original

Mounting the ASA on a concrete ceiling - Fig [2]
The ASA can be mounted on a ceiling using the
bracket shown in Fig. [2]. Fastening elements should
be provided by the customer and manufactured ac-
cording to structural calculations.
Mounting the ASA on a tiled or cavity wall - Fig. [3]
Fastening elements should be provided by the cus-
tomer and manufactured according to structural cal-
culations.
Continuous M16 threaded rods are recommended.
Mounting the ASA on a pillar - Fig. [4]
The ASA is mounted on a pillar or beam as shown in
Fig. [4].
Shortening the ASA suspended section
The length of the suspended section is 1.6 m on de-
livery, but the aluminium pipe [5-1] can be cut to a
specific length if required.
When the section is shortened, the piping systems
are pulled through towards the rear. Important: The
piping systems should not be clamped in position,
but should have a certain amount of freedom of
movement in the cable duct so that they are not dam-
aged when the boom arm is moved.
Cable duct (ASA CT/SRM only)
The enclosed cable duct must be mounted on the
wall or pillar between the ASA bracket and the loca-
tion of the dust extractor. The aluminium pipe [6-2]
must be slotted into the clamps [6-1] in the cable
duct and connected to the ASA and the dust extractor
using the accompanying tube sections [6-3]. If nec-
essary, shorten the cable duct and aluminium pipe as
required. The compressed air lines and electric ca-
bles [6-4] are also laid in the cable duct.

Connection and operation

7.1 Connecting the compressed air line
The following is required for correct operation:
– Air pressure: 4 - 8 bar flow pressure
– Min. air output: 400 l/min for each connected Fes-
tool compressed air sander.
Connect the grey compressed air line on the ASA

to the coupling connector on the service unit and
then to the on-site compressed-air system.
7.2

Connecting the control cable

CT mobile dust extractors, series CT 22, CT 33, CT
44, CT 55
Fit the assembly set (module EAA CT22/33/44/55:

495756) for the control cable to the CT mobile
dust extractor (see assembly instructions).
CT mobile dust extractor series CT 26, CT 36, CT 48
Fit the assembly set (module EAA CT26/36:

496143) to the CT mobile dust extractor (already
fitted on CTM 36/48 LE and CTL 36/48 LE models).
Plug the control cable into the socket on the ex-

tractor.
SRM mobile extractor and other brands of extractor
Connecting the control cable is no longer possible. If
the dust extractor has an appliance socket with auto-
matic switch-on unit, the mains cable on the EAA
must be plugged into this appliance socket so that
the automatic switch-on unit on the dust extractor
functions. However, note the maximum capacity of
the appliance socket. Not all EAA functions can be
used. We therefore recommend using a Festool mo-
bile dust extractor.
ASA TURBO
Qualified electricians only: Connect the control

cable to the control signal inlet on the stationary
extraction system.
7.3 Connecting the dust extractor
ASA CT/SRM
Insert the reducing sleeve on the extractor hose

into the connection on the dust extractor.
 We recommend using rotating adapter D50 DAS-
AS to connect the extractor hose to the dust ex-
tractor.
ASA TURBO
Connect the suction hose on the ASA to the sta-

tionary extraction system.
7.4

Connecting the mains cable

Insert the black plug on the ASA into a socket

connected to the mains power supply (230 V~/
16A).
7.5 Operation
On completion of the following steps, the ASA is
ready for operation:
1. Connect to EAA (see EAA operating manual)
– Mains and control cable to EAA
– Compressed air line to service unit
2. Connect the ASA
– Plug from on-site power supply
– Compressed air line to on-site compressed-
air system
– Control cable to dust extractor
