Festool 494388 CT Hose Garage for CT 22 / 33 is a dust extractor storage accessory made for keeping your hose and cord organized on compatible Festool extractors. This is a hose garage designed for hose and cord storage on Festool CT dust extractors. Model Number: 494388. If you use a CT 22 or CT 33 as a mobile cleanup and dust collection cart, this add-on gives you a cleaner, more controlled way to store the hose on top of the unit instead of wrapping it loosely around the body or letting it hang up during transport.

The big benefit here is simple: better organization without making the extractor harder to move around. Festool designed the hose garage to mount on top of the CT 22 and CT 33 and extend the SysDock docking station without increasing the overall footprint of the dust extractor. That matters in a van, trailer, shop corner, or finished space where every inch counts. You get hose storage up top while still keeping the system compact.

This accessory also helps protect both the suction hose and the mains cable during storage and transport. On a real job, that means less twisting, less dragging, and less chance of the hose getting pinched between tools or piled under other gear. For contractors who move dust extractors from room to room or from site to site, that kind of protection saves aggravation and helps your setup stay ready to work.

Festool built the unit from high impact ABS plastic, which is the right call for an accessory that lives on top of a mobile vacuum. It needs to handle bumps, stacking, and regular handling without turning into a weak point. The tool-free attachment is another practical detail. You can install it on the CT 22 or CT 33 quickly, without hunting for hardware or turning a simple upgrade into a half-hour project.

The Festool 494388 CT Hose Garage for CT 22 / 33 is also useful because it keeps the SysDock function in play. Festool notes that the docking feature turns the CT into a mobile cart, so you can stack multiple Systainers for transport or storage. In other words, this is not just a tray for hose storage. It is part of how the extractor stays organized as the center of a larger Festool system.

On compatibility, this accessory is made for CT 22 and CT 33 units and is not suitable for CT 26, CT 36, or CT 48. It accepts a wide range of hose sizes, including plug it hose D 22 x 3.5 m, D 27 x 3.5 m, D 27 x 5 m, D 36 x 3.5 m, D 50 x 2.5 m, and IAS 2-3500 AS. That gives users flexibility whether they run a standard hose or a larger diameter setup for heavier debris collection.

Who should buy it? Anyone still running a Festool CT 22 or CT 33 and wanting a cleaner, more organized dust extraction setup. It makes the most sense for woodworkers, remodelers, finish carpenters, and general contractors who move their extractor with other system components and want hose management that feels built-in instead of improvised.
