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.
7 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
