How do I setup a Festool Dust Extractor - CT 36 E AC HD for Kapex 120
Thought it best to seperate these two queries.

Hi all,

I've acquired a
Festool Dust Extractor - CT 36 E AC HD.

It runs well with plenty of suction.

It's been used for drywall.

It has a long life filter bag.

And and a few broke vent covers.

My ear are tearing and head hurting from information overload.

Any suggestions on how to set up for woodworking on a Kapex 120?

Thanks in advance.
 
I'd get a pack of throw away filter bags, or a re-usable long life bag. Turn off the 'Auto Clean' function. Make sure suction is turned all the way up. A short 36mm hose is a must, a short 50mm hose even better.
Like all mitre saws, the dust collection isn't amazing, but still worth setting up properly.
 
Wow!
Absolute champion.
Consolidated 5 hours of research into 5 sentences.
Man thats a relief.
