Conversion kits
The following conversion kits are available to
convert the EAA to a different version at a
later time:
CT/SRM/M >> TURBO/M
Modification: dust extracted by a stationary
extraction turbine instead of a mobile dust
extractor.
The connector
[3-2]
chanically operated slides
tached.
EW >> EW/DW (VE2-EAA: 495892)
Modification: additional connection socket
for pneumatic tools.
An additional maintenance unit (pressure
regulator, condensate trap, lubricator) and a
compressed air module including pneumatic
hoses and connection to electronics via wir-
ing harnesses must be mounted. Note: only
trained and qualified electricians are autho-
rised to perform this work!
EW/DW TURBO/M >> EW/DW TURBO/
A (UBS EAA-MA: 495891)
Modification: pneumatically operated slides
replace manual slides.
The complete floor group (the mechanically
operated slides, vacuum connections and
compressed air connections) must be re-
placed. In addition, solenoid valves must be
fitted, the compressed air module adapted

between the two me-
[3-1]
must be de-
and wiring harnesses for the electronics re-
placed. Note: only trained and qualified
electricians are authorised to perform this

Assembly
WARNING
Risk of injury, damage to property
X
Before installing the unit, have a structural
engineer check the static conditions of the
planned attachment point!
Germany only: Festool offers you the op-
portunity to have the energy box or the
boom arm assembled by an authorised fitter.
The energy box or boom arm is assembled
completely and handed over ready to use.
We recommend using this service for quicker,
more reliable assembly.
There are three different mounting op-
tions for the EAA:
1)Attachment to a boom arm (ASA CT/SRM
2500, ASA CT/SRM 5000, ASA TURBO
5000, ASA CT/SRM 6000, ASA TURBO
6000): the required assembly set is includ-
ed with the boom arm.
2)Wall mounting: an additional assembly set
is required (EAA-W: 495889).
3)Ceiling installation via bracket: an assem-
bly set is required (EAA-D: 495899).
7.1
Attachment to Festool boom arm
L The energy box may only be used in com-
bination with a Festool boom arm ASA
with joint (see Fig. [4]). If you have an
older boom arm with a previous model of
joint, use conversion kit 489704.
The assembly set is included in the ASA
scope of delivery and contains:
– Aluminium pipe for suspending the EAA
– Ready assembled mains cable and control
line with international standard interface
– Compressed air line
– 2 x protective sleeves
– 3 x cable clips
– 2 x hose hooks
Procedure
X
Mount the boom arm on a wall or pillar.
Read the operating manual supplied with
the boom arm.
