CT 36

[Juan Torres]

Hi, I was wondering if someone can answer this question, I have to use two sanders at the same time, do I need to have two separate vacuums or is there any way to connect two at the same time at the same vacuum with a splitter  for the hose and a splitter for the power cord on the vacuum, thank you everyone

Part #452898 is a 50 mm splitter that enables you to connect two hoses at the CT. You can fit a second power outlet to the CT, can't remember the part number, but I just use a power board as a short extension and leave multiple tools plugged in so you only need to move the hose.

If you're trying to pull power for both sanders at the same time, make sure their combined Amperage/Wattage draw doesn't exceed what the electronics in the Vac can handle through its power outlet. You will also need to make sure whatever socket/outlet/ mains circuit you've plugged the Vac into is rated for running the Vac and the sanders all at the same time.
If you're just wanting to leave things hooked up with the splitters and outlet but only run one sander at a time, then you're set and ready to go.

As mentioned, you can use the Y-splitter for the vac hoses. You'll need an extra hose.

For the power, you can use any three-prong AC splitter or power strip from your local hardware store. Note: the extra CT outlet is not an option in the US/Canada like it is in other parts of the world, as mentioned by [member=36526]Bohdan[/member].
