No.The older RTS 400 will accept the new pad protector, but the new sander will not accept the older pad protector.

Older pad protector? There was one?

Bob.  Will the new RTS 400 REQ pad protector fit the older RTS 400 sander? 

Thanks

Bob. Did you mean "not accept the new pad protector" in the quote above.

Great Bob. So the PR RTS-R 80x133 pad protecter for the RTS 400 REQ will fit my RTS 400 EQ.
Do you know when the PR RTS-R 80x133 will be available to order?

The RTS, DTS and 125 PRO all ship November 1st.

 

[Jerry White]

Even though I have already have a stable of Festool sanders, I just ordered one of these from Bob.

Expect a followup order for 125 paper since all I have in discs is 90, 115 and 150.

What Joe said.  But it is a deal I can't turn down!  Thanks, Bob.

Well, this is turning into quite a sale; some customers even buying a pair.

I really hope Festool went all in on these and can meet the demand.

 

[Cochese]

It's very tempting to order a second one for my dad, but I doubt he'll really appreciate it. Not in a bad way, but still.

Ordered my Pro 5 from Bob yesterday just a couple minutes after seeing it online!  This might be my first Festool purchase that didn't make my wife's eyes pop out when I told her the price!  [eek]

Can you use the $50 coupon with a Tool + Vac or is that already considered a 'promo'?

My understanding is that yes, you can.

Brice,

Well, uhm no. We are awaiting updates and resolutions from Festool, but all orders placed on my site will be honored on a first come, first serve basis.

Yes, that is right. However, when you submit your rebate form, you'll be asked for the product information for your new tool. Just pick either the CT or the tool. It won't matter which.

A guy at work said that the DTS & RTS are also 99$ is he mistaken?

Not that this one has meandered off the path but lets try keeping these Sales and Dealer Sander Promotion topics on track from this point forward.

Thanks,
