tions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below,
may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious
personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
General Safety Rules
Work Area
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Clut-
tered and dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate vacuum cleaners in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of fl ammable liquids, gases, or dust. Appli-
ances create sparks, which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away
while operating the vacuum cleaner. Do not
allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
Electrical Safety
This vacuum cleaner intended only for use indoor
and for dry or wet pick-up.
The power tool outlet is grounded and the
vacuum cleaner must be plugged into an
outlet properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all codes and ordinances.
Never remove the grounding prong or modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs. Check with a qualifi ed electrician if
you are in doubt as to whether the outlet
is properly grounded. If the vacuum cleaners
should electrically malfunction or break down,
grounding provides a low resistance path to carry
electricity away from the user.
Do not insert objects like paper clips or
screwdrivers into power tool outlet. The
outlet is live when the vacuum cleaner is plugged
into power source and switch is set to power tool
activation mode or fi lter cleaning mode. Electric
shock may occur.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is grounded. If operating the
vacuum cleaner in damp locations is unavoidable; a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter must be
used to supply the power to your vacuum cleaner.
Electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear will further enhance your personal safety.
Don’t expose vacuum cleaner to rain or wet
conditions. This vacuum cleaner can be used
for picking up non-fl ammable liquids but it is not
intended to be immersed or submerged in a fl uid.
Electric shock may occur.
Do not handle plug or appliance with wet
hands. Electric shock may occur.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to
carry the vacuum cleaner, pull the vacuum
cleaner or yank the plug from an outlet.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Don’t drive over it or close a
door on it. Damaged cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
When operating a vacuum cleaner outside,
use an outdoor extension cord marked “WA” or “W”. These cords are rated for outdoor
use and reduce the risk of electric shock. Refer
to Recommended sizes of Extension Cords in the
Accessory section of this manual.
Personal Safety and Vac-
uum Cleaner Use
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a vacuum
cleaner. Do not use vacuum cleaner while tired
4
or under the infl uence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating
vacuum cleaner may result in serious personal
injury.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure vacuum
cleaner and tool switches are OFF before
plugging in or putting vacuum cleaner
switch into power tool activation mode or
fi lter cleaning mode. Do not keep power tool
plugged into the vacuum cleaner’s power
tool outlet during normal vacuuming. Plug-
ging in vacuum cleaners or tools that have the
switch ON invites accidents.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance both for you and the vacuum cleaner
at all times. Use extra care when cleaning on
stairs. Proper footing and balance enables bet-
ter control of the vacuum cleaner in unexpected
situations.
Do not vacuum burning, smoking or smoldering things like cigarettes, matches or
hot ashes. Fire inside the vacuum cleaner tank
may occur.
Do not use to vacuum fl ammable liquids,
alcohol, gases, or explosive dusts, like gasoline or other fuels, lighter fl uid, varnish,
polyurethane coatings, cleaners, oil-based
paints, natural gas, hydrogen, coal dust,
magnesium dust, grain dust, or gun powder.
Electric motors create sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your
hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair
can be caught in moving parts, hose, and suction
nozzles. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil
and grease.
Do not hold the hose against any body parts
during operation.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye and
hearing protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be
used for appropriate conditions.
Not suitable to vacuum hazardous or toxic
substances or dusts e.g. asbestos. The fi lters
will not be able to capture all particles and may
exhaust them back into the environment.
Vacuum Cleaner Safety Rules
Vacuum cleaner Care
Do not use vacuum cleaner if switch does
not turn it ON or OFF. Any vacuum cleaner that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the vacuum cleaner.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the vacuum cleaner accidentally.
Never connect a tool with a rating greater
than the maximum amperes listed on the
receptacle. This vacuum cleaner has a power tool
outlet for use in conjunction with other appliances
such as sanders, jigsaws and planers; tools with
greater ratings may cause a fi re.
Do not vacuum dust when liquid/fl uid is
contained in the vacuum cleaner tank. Do
not vacuum liquids/fl uids when dust is in
the tank. In either case empty the tank and/or
remove dust bag before use so that dust does not
cake and harden inside the tank.
Dry fi lters completely after wet vacuuming
or use a second dry fi lter set for dust vacuuming. Damp or wet fi lters will cake with dust or
develop mold or mildew.
Store idle vacuum cleaner out of reach
of children and other untrained persons.
Vacuum cleaners are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
Maintain vacuum cleaner with care. Properly
maintain vacuum cleaner to keep hose unobstructed. Do not put any object into open-
ings. Do not use with any opening blocked;
keep free of dust, lint, hair and anything that
may reduce air fl ow. Any alteration or modifi -
cation is a misuse and may result in a dangerous
condition.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other
condition that may affect the vacuum cleaners operation. If damaged, have the vacuum
cleaner serviced before using. Poorly main-
tained vacuum cleaners cause many accidents.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for your
vacuum cleaner.
Use only accessories that are recommended
by the manufacturer for your model. Accesso-
ries that may be suitable for one vacuum cleaner
may become hazardous when used on another
vacuum cleaner.
Service
Only qualifi ed repair personnel must perform
vacuum cleaner service. Service or mainte-
nance performed by unqualifi ed personnel could
result in a risk of injury. For example: internal
wires may be misplaced or pinched, safety guard
return springs may be improperly mounted.
When servicing a vacuum cleaner, use only
identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this
5
manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to
follow the Maintenance Instructions may create
a risk of electric shock or injury. Certain cleaning
agents such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride,
ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
The risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work.
Various dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities contains chemicals known (to the
State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects
or other reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as dust masks that
are specially designed to fi lter out microscopic particles. Wash hands after
handling.

Class II Construction
Intended use
The vacuum cleaner is designed for use as specifi ed for the aspiration and evacuation of non-noxious dusts, dirt, sand, shavings etc..
The vacuum cleaner is designed as specifi ed for
vacuuming water.
The vacuum cleaner is designed in accordance
with IEC 60335-1 and IEC 60335-2-69 for a higher
loading in industrial use.
The fi ltering performance of the overall unit, which
is fi tted with a HEPA fi lter element (493334), corresponds to HEPA quality H 13 (medium degree
of fi ltration 99.95 %).
All CT extractors fi tted with the HEPA fi lter element
(493334) have HEPA certifi cation both for the fi lter
material and the whole dust extractor.
The user is liable for damage and
injury resulting from incorrect usage!
Connections
Before start-up:
The accessories are delivered in the container
(2.10), and must be removed prior to initial
operation.
6
Electrical connection
The operating voltage and frequency shown on
the specifi cation plate must be the same as the
mains power voltage (wall socket).
Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is
switched off when you plug the power cable in.
The antistatic system (AS)
Friction in the suction hose causes electrostatic
charges which can result in unpleasant electric
shocks for the operator. In order to conduct these
static charges to earth, the extraction units are
provided with an antistatic system as a standard
feature. However, antistatic hoses and accessories
have to be used in this case.
The antistatic function will only work if the plug is
plugged into a totally earthed socket.
Temperature control
A temperature fuse switches the dust extractor off
before this reaches a critical temperature to protect against overheating - switch dust extractor off
and leave for around 5 minutes to cool down.
If the dust extractor still cannot be switched back
on, please consult a Festool-service centre.
Connecting the suction hose
Connect the suction hose at the extraction opening (1.7).
Connecting an electric tool
Equipment
• Tools or accessories can be stowed in the storage
compartments (1.6, not with CT 22 E HEPA).
• A systainer can be fi xed on the shelf with the
two clamps (1.1).
• An air blast is obtained by inserting a suction
hose in the blast opening (2.7).
• Stand / Brake: the wheels can be blocked by
the brakes (2.8), thus preventing the vacuum
cleaner from rolling away unexpectedly.
Operation
On/off switch
In position O (1.3) the vacuum cleaner is switched
off and the appliance plug socket (1.2) is dead.
Two modes of operation are possible:
a) Switch position „MAN“
The appliance plug socket is dead.
The cleaner motor starts immediately.
b) Switch position „Auto“
Before turning the switch to the
„Auto“ position, ensure that the tool connected to
the appliance plug socket is switched off.
The appliance plug socket is live.
The cleaner motor starts only when the tool con-
nected to the appliance plug socket is switched
on.
Observe the maximum connected load on the appliance plug socket (see “Technical Data“)!
Make sure that the electric tool is
switched off when plugging it in and unplugging
it.
Connect the electric tool to the appliance plug
socket (1.2).
Connecting pneumatic tools
Make sure that the pneumatic tool
is switched off when plugging it in and unplugging it.
When the compressed-air module (1.9) (452829)
is fi tted, the automatic cut-in of the appliance
also operates in conjunction with compressed-air
tools.
We also recommend fi tting of the VE supply unit
(452797). The supply unit fi lters and oils the
compressed air and allows the air pressure to be
regulated.
An IAS connecting piece (454757) is available for
connecting Festool compressed-air tools with the
IAS system.
To ensure trouble-free functioning of the automatic cut-in, the operating pressure of the tool
must be 6 bar.
Suction force regulator
The suction force regulator (1.4) can be used to
vary the suction capacity. This permits a precise
adaptation to different substances to be picked
up.
Opening/closing the
vacuum cleaner
– Open retaining clamps (2.2) ,
– Raise upper part (2.4) until support catch (2.5)
engages.
Follow the reverse order to close the appliance.
You must raise the upper part slightly before depressing or disengaging the support.
Emptying the dirt container
Always remove the upper part of
the vacuum cleaner before emptying the dirt
container (2.10)!
– Open the vacuum cleaner,
– Raise the upper part slightly, depress the support
(2.5),
– Raise the upper part to the stop (vertical posi-
tion),
7
– Remove the upper part by moving it forwards
horizontally,
– Empty the dirt container,
– Replace the upper part.
that both upper-part pins are fully inserted in
the recesses (1.5)!
– Close the vacuum cleaner.
Make sure
Application
Vacuuming dry materials
Before using the vacuum cleaner to evacuate dry
substances, a fi lter bag must always be inserted
in the container. Then the evacuated material can
be disposed of easily.
The fi lter element becomes damp after evacuating
liquids. A damp fi lter element suffers more wear
and tear if it is used for dry materials. Accordingly,
the fi lter element should be dried or replaced with
a dry one before dry operation.
Vacuuming liquids
Do not evacuate combustible liq-
uids!
If foam or liquid escapes, stop work
immediately and empty the dirt container.
The HEPA fi lter element shall only be
used for extracting dry materials.
The fi lter bag has to be removed before evacuat-
ing liquids. We recommend use of a special wet
fi lter (452924).
When the maximum fi lling level is reached, a
bag-full indicator (2.12) automatically interrupts
extraction.
