Festool TS 55 EQ User Manual

Using Dust Extraction
The TS 55 can be used with or without a dust extraction
system. The chip diverter swivels to direct the sawdust
away from the work area when a dust extraction system is
not used.
For best results, however, a dust extraction system (such as
the Festool CT 22 shown below) should be used. Festool
dust extractors have the added features of variable speed,
and sensing when the saw is turned on. The vacuum will
automatically start when the saw is turned on, and will
remain running for a couple of seconds after the saw turns
off to clear the remaining dust.
1. Insert the extractor hose into the chip diverter (36 mm
inside diameter [1-
7
/
16
in.])
2. Plug the TS 55 power cord into the auxiliary outlet on the
extractor (if so equipped).
3. Set the power switch on the extractor to “Auto.” (The
auxiliary power outlet is active only when the switch is
set to Auto.)
