Before extracting hazardous, combustible or
explosive materials, make sure that the con-
nected extraction system is suitable for these
materials. Observe all applicable industrial
safety regulations.
Festool accepts no liability for damage and
accidents resulting from improper or incor-
rect use of the EAA or ASA, or subsequent
modifications made by the user.

Safety instructions
Warning! Read all safety warnings
and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in elec-
tric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
– The additional weight on the EAA/ASA
(e.g. weight of electric or pneumatic tools,
accessories) must not exceed 12 kg.
– Inspect the electric cables for damage at
regular intervals. Have a qualified electri-
cian or Festool after-sales service techni-
cian replace damaged cables with new
cables.
– Ambient conditions: the room temperature
must be between 0° C and 50° C. Air hu-
midity must not exceed 80 %.

Design
6.1
Energy box
The EAA energy box consists of two sections:
– Section containing electrical components
such as sockets and selector switches for
electric power tools (EW).
– Section containing pneumatic components,
including connections for pneumatic tools
(DW).
6.2
Versions
The different versions offer the following fea-
tures:
EAA EW CT/SRM/M
– 3 sockets, 1 non-adjustable, unlubricated
compressed air connection (not suitable
for connecting Festool compressed air
sanders!).
– Manually operated slide.
L The slides are linked mechanically. Dust
can therefore only be extracted from one
machine at any one time. The slide setting
is monitored by a microswitch.
EAA EW TURBO/M
– 3 sockets, 1 non-adjustable, unlubricated
compressed air connection (not suitable
for connecting Festool compressed air
sanders!).
– Manually operated slide.
L Dust can be extracted from two machines
at the same time. The slide setting is
monitored by a microswitch (basic posi-
tion: slide closed).
EAA EW/DW CT/SRM/M
– 3 sockets, 1 maintenance unit (pressure
regulator, condensate trap, lubricator), 2
adjustable, lubricated compressed air con-
nections, 1 non-adjustable, unlubricated
compressed air connection (not suitable
for connecting Festool compressed air
sanders!).
