Will the CT-VA-20 fit my older CTM 36 E AC HD from 2013-2014?

Hi
Does the CT-VA-20 require a T-LOC interface to lock in place, or will it work as is? Has anyone here successfully used it with an older CTM 36 without modifications?
I have searched a lot and I can’t find a picture of a retrofit part to get t-loc system for the CTM 36 E AC HD.
Anyone been through this and know what i need? What is the solution?

It could be this :

FESTOOL conversion kit CT 26/36 AC USA - 201793​

But I can’t find a picture of it anywhere so not sure.
 
I'm unfamiliar with your CT. However, the CT-VA-20 can attach using the first generation Systainer tabs - like on a CT 22. If yours has that configuration, it should work.

On my CT MIDI I, the first gen Systainer tabs work better than the T-Loc.
 
Hi, looks like adaptor plate #86 plus#85 plus#20 holds the systainer in place. ekat in the uk wants tr no. and part so no number i could find. here's a picture of parts and actual part on the ct. good luck

Technically the CT-VA-20 would work with any vacuum cleaner that has the same size hose connector as the Festool extractors. I've used mine sat on the floor next to my CTM36 many times. It doesn't have to be sat on top of the extractor to work.

That was never in doubt.

I think the total of that 86, 85, 20 is the number I posted before; 768115
