The auto cleaning system simply helps knock larger particles into the bag while keeping the smallest particles from escaping.Īuto clean will work in both auto (power tool activation) and manual modes. As the filter traps particles, it’s harder to move air through it. The auto clean system helps keep the filter from getting clogged and losing suction performance. So don’t stress out about it, especially when the stock filter gets down to 1 micron. But Festool’s focus isn’t on concrete – it’s on woodworking, painting, and drywall. While you can get a Festool CT 36 with a HEPA filter, you can’t get it with auto clean as well. The other is to have a HEPA filter (required in some applications). Having an auto clean filter cleaning system is part of being Table 1 compliant with OSHA’s silica dust rule. Since the Festool CT 36 E AC is specifically designed for use with the Planex sander, it comes with a 1-1/2″ diameter hose like you see with most extractors in this class. However, if you’re going to use this with other Festool sanders, you’ll want to grab their smaller diameter hose (27mm/1.06″) hose to get the best performance in those applications. The longer your hose, the more performance loss you’ll see, so it’s actually beneficial to use the shortest hose you can get away with.
That’s not the longest you’ll see in the industry, but that’s intentional. Top Features Anti-Static HoseĬan a hose really be a feature worth talking about?Ībsolutely! Festool includes an 11-1/2′ anti-static hose. It’s more than just CFM and suction power, though. So let’s dig deeper into how the Festool CT 36 E AC compares to the rest of the industry currently. And that’s exactly the kind of mentality you want when you’re producing high-quality results.Įven the dust extractor is part of the system of any tool in Festool’s lineup. The amount of care our German friends put into their designs crosses the border of obsessive. Hang around Festool for very long and you’ll hear them talk about tools as systems.
