1 Specified use
The vacuum cleaners are designed as spe-
cified for the aspiration and evacuation
of noxious dusts industrial threshold limit
values (LTL-values) up to 1 mg/m3and of
wood dusts corresponding to dust class ‘L’
in accordance with IEC 60335-2-69. The
vacuum cleaners are designed as specified
for extracting water. The vacuum cleaners
are designed in accordance with EN 60335-
1 and EN 60335-2-69 for a higher loading
in industrial use.
2 Safety instructions
- Use only accessories approved by Festool
(see the Festool Catalogue).
- Warning: The appliance may contain dust
that is hazardous to health.
The appliance must not be emptied, nor

- Do not leave devices out in the rain.
- Check the plugs and cables regularly and
have them replaced by an expert if dama-
ged.
- Do not lift or carry the devices by their
handles using a crane hook or lifting
gear.
- The device may only be used by persons
who have been trained in its use and who
are authorised to do so.
- If noxious dusts have been extracted, the
vacuum cleaner and all accessories must
be completely cleaned (inside and outside)
by suction and wiping, before removal
from the contaminated area.
Parts that cannot be completely cleaned
are to be packed for transport in a plastic
bag with an airtight seal.
- For safety reasons, only operate the ma-
chine using a totally earthed socket.
3 Appliance preparation and initial
operation
Stick the enclosed sticker in your national
language on the text area of the warning
plate (5.7).
3.1 Electrical connection
The operating voltage shown on the
rating plate must correspond to the
voltage of the mains power supply.
Make sure that the vacuum cleaner
is switched off when you plug the-
power cable in.
3.2 On/off switch (1.1)
In position 0 the vacuum cleaner is switched
off and the appliance plug socket (1.3) is
dead.
Two modes of operation are possible:
a) Switch position „MAN“
The appliance plug socket is live.
Before turning the switch to the
„MAN“ position, ensure that the tool
connec-ted to the appliance plug
socket is switched off.
The cleaner motor starts immediately.
b) Switch position „Auto“
The appliance plug socket is live.
Before turning the switch to the
„Auto“ position, ensure that the tool
connected to the appliance plug so-
cket is switched off.
The cleaner motor starts only when the tool
connected to the appliance plug socket is
switched on.
3.3 Suction force regulator (1.2)
The suction force regulator can be used to
vary the suction capacity. This permits a
precise adaptation to different substances
to be picked up.
3.4 Connecting an electric tool
Observe the maximum connected load on
the appliance plug socket (see “Technical
Data“)! Connect the electric tool to the ap-
pliance plug socket (1.3).
Make sure that the electric tool is
switched off when plugging it in and
unplugging it.
4 Operation
4.1 Changing the filter
During the following procedure, take care
not to raise dust more than is unavoidab-
le. Wear a P2 breathing protection mask
with health-hazardous dusts!
a) Changing the filter bag
Order No.:
CTL MINI 456772, CTL MIDI 494105
- Open locking clips (1.4), remove top sec-
tion (1.5),
- Change filter bag (2.1)–see print on filter
bag,
- Replace top section, close locking clips.
Note: A replacement filter bag can be
stored in the storage compartment (5.4).
b) Changing the filter element
Order No.: 456790
Do not operate machine without a
filter element. This may damage the
motor.
- Open locking clips (1.4), remove top sec-
tion (1.5),
- Fold over handle (3.2) and remove holder
(3.3),
- Remove used filter element (3.4) and re-
place with a new one,
- Replace holder and fold over handle until
it latches into place,
- Replace top section, close locking clips.

4.2 Emptying the dirt trap
The dirt trap (2.2) can be emptied once the
top part has been removed.
4.3 Stand/Brake
Folding out the stand (4.5) prevents the
mobile dust extractor from rolling away. To
achieve this, lift the front end of the mobile
dust extractor slightly and push the stand
down-wards until it latches into place. Press
the button to release the stand (4.4).
5 Application
The extractor hose (4.2) is connected to
the extractor opening by the angle bracket
(4.1). During machine operation, the ex-
tractor hose is inserted through the opening
(4.3). A Systainer can be attached to the
storage area (5.6) via the four locking clips
(5.5).
5.1 Vacuuming dry materials
Before using the vacuum cleaner to
evacuate dry substances, a filter bag
must always be inserted in the con-
tainer. Then the evacuated material
can be disposed off easily.
The filter element becomes damp after
evacuating liquids. A damp filter element
suffers more wear and tear if it is used for
dry materials. Accordingly, the filter ele-
ment should be dried or replaced with a dry
one before dry operation.
5.2 Vacuuming liquids
The filter bag has to be removed be-
fore evacuating liquids. We recom-
mend use of a special wet filter.
When the maximum filling level is reached,
a level indicator (3.1) automatically inter-
rupts extraction.
Do not evacuate combustible liquids!
If foam or liquid escapes, stop work
immediately and empty the dirt con-
tainer.
5.3 The antistatic system (AS)
Friction in the suction hose causes electro-
static charges which can result in unple-
asant 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.
6 After finishing work
- Switch off the cleaner and pull the plug of
the mains lead out of the plug socket.
- Empty dirt tank.
- Insert the suction hose (5.1) and con-
necting pipe (5.2) in the top section. The
mains cable then has to be inserted th-
rough the opening (5.3).
- Clean the vacuum cleaner inside and out-
side by suction and wiping.
- Deposit the appliance in a dry room, safe
from unauthorised use.
7 Temperature control
A temperature fuse switches the dust ex-
tractor 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.
8 Maintenance and care
Always remove the mains plug from
the socket before carrying out any
maintenance work!
Any maintenance and repair work
requiring an opening of the motor
housing may only be carried out
by an authoris-ed customer service
workshop.
A safety test is to be carried out at least
once a year by the manufacturer or an in-
structed person, e.g. for possible damage
to the filter and leaks in the appliance,
and to ensure that the control devices are
functioning.
9 Accessories, filter
The accessory and filter order number can
be found in your Festool catalogue or on the
