7.3 Extension Cord
If an extension cord is required, it must have
sufficient cross-section to prevent an excessive
drop in voltage or overheating. An excessive
drop in voltage reduces the output and can lead
to failure of the motor. The table below shows
you the correct cord diameter as a function of
the cord length for this tool.

(AWG)
Use only U.L. and CSA listed extension cords.
Never use two extension cords together. In­
stead, use one long one.
The lower the AWG number, the
stronger the cord.
7.4 The antistatic system
Friction inside the extraction hose causes static
electricity to develop during extraction. Operat­
ing personnel may receive unpleasant electric
shocks while working. The mobile dust extrac­
tor is fitted with an antistatic system as stand­
ard to discharge any static electricity that may
develop. However, always use the enclosed an­
tistatic extraction hose.

12 not recommend­
ed
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 function
correctly.
8.3 Temperature cut-out
To prevent overheating, a temperature cut-out
switches the mobile dust extractor off when it
reaches a critical temperature.
► To prevent overheating, a temperature cut-
out switches the mobile dust extractor off
when it reaches a critical temperature.
► Switch off the mobile dust extractor and al­
low to cool for about 5 minutes.
If the mobile dust extractor will not
switch on again, please contact a Fes­
tool service workshop.
8.4 Adjusting the suction power
You can use the suction power adjuster [1-7] to
adapt the machine suction power to different
applications.
8.5 Applying the brake
Folding out the brake lever [1-12] prevents the
mobile dust extractor from rolling. To achieve
this, lift the front end of the mobile dust extrac­
tor slightly and push the brake lever down­
wards until it latches into place. Push the lev­
er [1-11] again to release.

9.1 Handling
Hose store: after finisching work, you can feed
the suction hose through the recess [4-2] and
place it in the hose store.
SysDoc Systainer attachment system: a Sys­
tainer can be attached to the storeage area via
the four slides ore the T-Loc [4-1] .
