Festool RTS-400 Pad Replacement: Special Screwdriver?

[teton176]

Howdy Folks: my Festool RTS-400 and Midi vac have performed like a champ on a cabinet refinishing project. The pad needs to be replaced and I ordered an OEM. Question: The screws holding the pad in can be removed with a flathead screwdriver, however, it appears that this is a proprietary screw head. I don't want to strip the screw heads and am wondering if there is a special Festool screwdriver for removing the screws. Advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

@teton176 It's just a standard Torx 15 screw, with extended line for flathead.

Awesome, thanks, I have a few T15 drivers in the kit and they worked like a charm. Much more secure than a flathead.
