Product Highlights

The extractor with automatic filter cleaning (AC).

The extractor features enhanced automatic filter cleaning, specifically designed for high-volume, fine dust extraction. This improvement ensures consistently high suction power, longer working intervals, and significant time savings. It also extends the filter’s lifespan, reduces maintenance effort, and helps reduce costs.

Bluetooth® is included as standard.

With a built-in Bluetooth® interface, you have multiple options for operation. You can automatically start the extractor using a Festool cordless tool or an optional remote control, eliminating the need to walk over to the machine. The extractor also connects seamlessly to the Festool app, allowing you to adjust cleaning intervals and receive alerts directly on your smartphone. Smart connectivity makes your work more efficient.

Clean and efficient work with a system.

Additionally, the extractor includes several convenient features: the smooth, anti-static suction hose can be easily stored in the integrated Hose Garage to save space, and the bayonet fitting securely attaches the suction hose to your Festool power tool. The T-LOC system enables quick connections to Systainers and the Pre-separator. All these functions make the extractor a valuable asset in any situation.

Automatic Filter Cleaning

The upgraded AUTOCLEAN (AC) function automatically cleans the main filter, ensuring consistently high suction power at all times.

Push-button operation

The extractor features an easy-to-use touch control panel instead of rotary knobs, making it super simple to operate—even with gloves on or in messy conditions. Just turn it on, and it automatically starts in the right mode.

Simply flexible

The suction hose is smooth, flexible, and built to last. You’ll appreciate how easy it is to handle, as it glides over edges effortlessly. Its conical shape also boosts suction power, making it even more effective.

Systainer docking

With T-LOC, you can easily connect Systainers to the extractor using the SYS dock for hassle-free transport.

Organized

The power cord and suction hose are neatly stored in the built-in hose holder, keeping everything organized and well-protected during transit.

Integrated Bluetooth® technology

You can automatically turn on the extractor using an optional remote control or a Bluetooth® battery pack. This saves you the hassle of having to walk over to the extractor each time.

System enhancements

You can easily add various practical accessories to the extractor, such as a Workcenter, Pre-separator, or Boom Arm, to enhance its functionality.

Large capacity

The flat filter and smooth inner contours of the container allow the filter bag to fully unfold, ensuring it fills evenly and makes nearly complete use of the available tub volume.

Powerful suction

The powerful turbine delivers strong suction, ensuring optimal extraction results every time.

Quick cord release

Removing the power cord is quick and easy, thanks to a smart folding mechanism.

Connecting sleeve

The bayonet fitting allows for a secure and quick connection of the suction hose to the power tool, complete with a bypass valve for easy adjustment of the available suction.

Support right on your smartphone

The extractor connects to the Festool app, providing you with helpful instructions to keep you working efficiently. You can also view usage data for your extractor directly through the app.

Tear-resistant fleece filter bag

The fleece filter bags are self-cleaning, collapsing automatically when the extractor is turned off. This SELFCLEAN effect ensures that suction power remains consistently strong until the bag is completely full.

Easy to transport

The large wheels keep the extractor stable and help it glide over small obstacles effortlessly. A locking brake ensures it stays in place when you need it to. Plus, its balanced center of gravity makes it easy to carry.

Adjustable suction

You can adjust the suction power to five different levels based on your specific application.

Wet capable

During wet extraction, the LevelStop sensors automatically shut off the motor to protect it. The wet filter can be installed or removed without any tools.
