The antistatic system (AS)
The friction of material running through the
suction hose causes electrostatic charges, which
can result in unpleasant electric shocks for the
operator.
In order to prevent this, this dust extractor has
an integrated antistatic system which conducts
these static charges to ground. This requires the
use of antistatic hoses and accessories.
Temperature control
A heat-triggered limit switch turns off the dust
extractor if it reaches a critical temperature, to
protect against overheating. If this happens,
switch the dust extractor off and let it cool for
around 5 minutes. If the dust extractor still
cannot be switched back on, consult a Festool
service center.
After finishing work
- Switch off the dust extractor and unplug the
power cord.
- Empty filter bag and tank.
- Place the suction hose (5.1) and the power cord
(5.2) in the top section.
- Clean the dust extractor inside and outside by
vacuuming and wiping.
- Leave the dust extractor in a dry area out of
reach of unauthorized persons.
Filters and accessories
The accessory and filter order number can be
found in your Festool catalog or on the Internet
at www.festool-usa.com.
Maintenance and care
Always unplug the power cord
from the plug socket before doing any
maintenance!
Do not attempt any maintenance
or repairs involving opening the motor housing.
This may be carried out only by an authorized
customer service center.
A safety test must be performed
at least once a year by the manufacturer or a
qualified person, to check for possible leaks and
damage to the filter, and to ensure that the
control devices are functioning.

the customer using UPS Ground Service. All
warranty service is valid 3 years from the date

Festool Limited Warranty
This warranty is valid on the pre-condition that
the tool is used and operated in compliance with
the Festool operating instructions. Festool
warrants, only to the original consumer
purchaser, that the specified tool will be free from
defects in materials and workmanship for a term
of one year from the date of procurement. Festool
makes no other warranty, express or implied,
for Festool portable power tools. No agent,

of Festool has the authority to increase or
otherwise change the obligations or limitations
of this warranty. The obligations of Festool in its
sole discretion under this warranty shall be
limited to the repair or replacement of any Festool
portable power tool that is found to be defective
as packaged with the User Manual.
Excluded from coverage under this warranty are:
normal wear and tear; damages caused by

anything other than defects in material and
workmanship. This warranty does not apply to

IN NO EVENT SHALL FESTOOL BE LIABLE
FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL
DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS OR ANY
OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED WHATSOEVER. ALL WARRANTIES
IMPLIED BY STATE LAW, INCLUDING THE
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANT-
ABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, ARE HEREBY LIMITED TO THE
DURATION OF THREE YEARS.
Some states in the U.S. and some Canadian
provinces do not allow the limitations on how
long an implied warranty lasts, so the above
limitation may not apply to you. With the
exception of any warranties implied by state or
province law as hereby limited, the foregoing
express limited warranty is exclusive and in lieu
of all other warranties, guarantees, agreements
and similar obligations of Festool.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights and
you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state in the U.S. and province to province
in Canada.
