Is the CT 36 hose compatable with the Planex sander or will I need to buy adapters? Looking to purchase the Planex sander but not sure of which vacuum to pair with it.

Festool highly recommends using the CT 36 AutoClean (AC) with the Planex due to the volume of fine dust it produces. The CT 36 AC has an automatic filter cleaning mechanism to prevent clogging of the filter. While you can use other Festool vacs with the Planex, you may experience issues with the filter clogging. Also, to your point, the CT 36 AC comes with a hose that has a special connector designed to prevent it from coming unplugged from the Planex during operation. You can use the hoses included with the other vacs, but they do not lock onto the Planex and could separate during use.https://www.festoolproducts.com/festool-574933-ct-36-ac-dust-extractor-with-autoclean.htmlIf you have other questions, please call us for assistance M-F at 877-866-5688.
