7.2 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.
► Connect the electric power tool to the appli­
ance socket [1-11].
7.3 Connecting pneumatic tools
WARNING
Risk of injury
► Switch off the air tool.
With the compressed air module [1-3], the au­
tomatic switch-on function for the mobile dust
extractor also works in conjunction with air
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 air tools
to the IAS system.
The operating pressure of the tool must be 6
bar for the automatic switch-on unit to function
correctly.
7.4 Connecting the energy box
The connection for the energy box (EAA) [1-4]
allows you to connect the mobile dust extractor
with the EAA in order to couple the automatic
switch-on unit on the mobile dust extractor with
the equivalent unit on the EAA.
7.5 Adjusting the suction power
► Use the rotary knob [1-10].
7.6 Applying the brake
Folding out the black brake lever [1-15] pre­
vents the mobile dust extractor from rolling. To
achieve this, lift the front end of the mobile dust
extractor slightly and push the black brake lev­
er downwards until it latches into place. Push
the green lever [1-14] again to release.
7.7 Temperature cut-out
A temperature cut-out switches the mobile dust
extractor off when it reaches a critical tempera­
ture to prevent overheating.
