1 Safety instructions

WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications

provided with this tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

- This appliance must not be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge. Children need to be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.

- WARNING! machine may contain hazardous dust. Only authorised qualified specialists with suitable protective equipment may perform maintenance, empty the container and change the filter.

- Always operate with the filter system installed!

– Risk of explosion and fire: Do not absorb:

• Sparks or hot dust;
• Combustible or explosive materials (e.g. magnesium, aluminium, petrol, diluting agents);
• Aggressive materials (e.g. acid, alkaline solutions, solvents);

• Chemically reactive materials, which lead to the generation of heat, acids/ bases, gases, etc. (e.g. reactive 2-component materials, aluminium and water).

• Observe all national safety regulations as well as the material manufacturer's specifications!

• Always use suitable protective equipment!
• If intact following a visual inspection, work in a dry environment according to instructions!
• Always use the socket on the machine for the purpose specified!
• Check the plug and the cable regularly and should either become damaged, in order to avoid a hazard, have them replaced by an authorised after-sales service workshop.
• Do not lift or transport using a crane hook or lifting gear!
• This machine must not be used by people who might have a particularly adverse reaction to an electric shock (e.g. people with cardiac pacemakers), because the possibility of the machine building up a static charge cannot be excluded.
• Use only the original Festool suction hose.
• Pay attention to the work environment and watch out for your own safety and the safety of others when transporting or working with the machine.

In this way, you can for example prevent tripping hazards caused by the suction hose or mains cable.

- Keep packaging film away from children.

There is a risk of suffocation.

6 Commissioning

WARNING

Unauthorised voltage or frequency!

Risk of accidents

▶ Observe the specifications on the machine's name plate.
▶ Observe country-specific regulations.

6.1 Initial commissioning

▶ Insert the filter/disposal bag [2].
▶ Fit the cord holder [3].
▶ Connect the suction hose [4].

6.2 Connecting the mobile dust extractor

WARNING

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.

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 connected to 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 connected tool is switched on.

▶ Insert the plug into an earthed socket.

Pull the plug from the socket when the machine is not in use and prior to main-ce and cleaning work.

6.3 Connecting electric power tools

WARNING

Risk of injury

▶ Observe the maximum appliance socket connected load (see chapter "Technical data")
▶ Switch off the electric power tool.

- Connect the electric power tool to the appliance socket [1-3].

Special features of CTL26 E SD

• CTL 26 E SD E/A: socket module with automatic switch-on function for the use of two electric power tools: e.g. 2 sanders, 1 jigsaw + 1 sander
• CTL 26 E SD: Socket module with permanent power supply for use as extension cable: e.g. charger, lamp, etc.

7 Settings

7.1 Adjusting the suction power

▶ at the rotary knob [1-9].

7.2 Applying the brake

Folding out the black brake lever [1-13] prevents the mobile dust extractor from rolling. To achieve this, lift the front end of the mobile dust extractor slightly and push the black brake lever downwards until it latches into place. Push the green lever to release.

7.3 Temperature cut-out

A temperature cut-out switches the mobile dust extractor off when it reaches a critical temperature to prevent overheating.

- Switch off the mobile dust extractor, allow to cool for about 5 minutes then switch on again.

① Not possible to switch on: contact Festool service workshop.

7.4 AUTOClean - Cleaning the main filter (only versions with AutoClean)

Only in conjunction with disposal bag

(compliance with dust class 'L'). Not suit-

able for wet extraction!

Automatic cleaning

Adjust the frequency using the rotary knob [1-7].

Only CTL for 36 E AC-LHS: switch on using the rotary knob [1-7].

Manual cleaning

Turn the switch [1-8] to the AC symbol.

Full manual cleaning

▶ Cover the end of the nozzle or suction hose with your hand or closing slide CT-VS (497926) for 2 seconds.

▶ Turn the switch [1-8] to the AC symbol.

8 Working

8.1 Handling

Hose holder: After finishing work, you can feed the suction hose through the opening [8-2] and place it in the hose holder.

SysDoc Systainer storage area: A Systainer can be fastened to the storage area with the four slides or the T-Loc lock [8-1].

8.2 Extracting dry materials

CAUTION

Hazardous dust

Damage to the respiratory passage

Ensure there is adequate ventilation! Observe regional regulations!

Limit values: exhaust air max. 50% of the clear air volume

Formula: room volume V_R x air renewal rate L_W

8.3 Extracting wet materials/liquids

Remove the filter or disposal bag!

Recommendation: use special wet filter

(NF-CT).

The dust extractor stops automatically when the maximum level is reached.

After wet extraction, allow the main filter to dry!
