Initial Operation; Extension Cord; Switch On/Off - Festool CLEANTEX CT 26 E Guide D'utilisation

WARNING
Unauthorised voltage or frequency!
Risk of accident
The mains voltage and the frequency of the pow-
er source must correspond with the specifica-
tions on the machine's name plate.
In North America, only Festool machines with
the voltage specifications 120 V/60 Hz may be
used.
Consider the pictures on the fold-out page.

Initial operation

Open the locking clips [2-2] and remove the top
section of the machine [2-1].
Remove the accessories from the dust contain-
er [2-3] and the packaging!
Insert a filter bag in the dust container (see
chapter "Changing the filter bag").
Attach the cable holder to the rear of the mobile
dust extractor (see Fig. [3]).
3
Replace the top section [2-1] and close the
locking clips [2-2].
Connect the suction hose to the machine.

Switch on/off

Insert the plug into an earthed socket.
Operation
Risk of injury from tools starting up unexpectedly
Before setting the switch to the "AUTO" or
"MAN" position, make sure that the connected
tool is switched off.
The switch [1-8] serves as an On/Off switch. It has
three positions:
Switch position "0"
Appliance socket [1-3] is disconnected from the
power, mobile dust extractor is switched off.
"MAN" switch position
Appliance socket [1-3] is disconnected from the
power, the mobile dust extractor starts.
"Auto" switch position
Appliance socket [1-3] is connected to the power,
the mobile dust extractor starts when the connect-
ed tool is switched on.
If an extension cord is required, it must have suffi-
cient 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 di-
ameter as a function of the cord length for this tool.
Total Extension Cord
Lenght (feet)
Cable size (AWG)
Use only U.L. and CSA listed extension cords.
Never use two extension cords together. Instead,
use one long one.
The lower the AWG number, the stronger the
cord.
The antistatic system
Friction inside the extraction hose causes static
electricity to develop during extraction. Operating
personnel may receive unpleasant electric shocks
while working. The mobile dust extractor is fitted
with an antistatic system as standard to discharge
any static electricity that may develop. However, al-
ways use the enclosed antistatic extraction hose.
