Systainer (System Container)
Every Festool product is shipped in its own unique system container, called a "Systainer." This provides protection and
storage for the tool and accessories. All Systainers are stackable and can be interlocked together, including stacking and
locking atop Festool dust extractors.
Instruction Manual 23
Stacking Systainers
For convenience in transporting Festool tools and
accessories, the systainers can be stacked and locked
together. The systainers are locked together using the
stacking tabs and latches.
1. Place one systainer on top of the other.
2. Release all four latches on the lower systainer by pulling
back at their top edges (step A to the right).
3. Slide all four latches upward (step B) as depicted by the
two views.
4. Snap all four latches back to their flat position (step C) so
they engage the stacking tabs of the upper systainer.
The image to the right shows two accessory systainers
stacked together.
Parts of the Systainer
► Carrying Handle. The carrying handle folds flat when not
in use.
► Cover Latches. The two green latches on the front of the
Systainer secure the cover. (These are also used for
stacking Systainers, as described below.)
► Stacking Latches. The two gray latches on the sides of the
Systainer are used for stacking one or more systainers
together.
► Stacking Tabs. The stacking tabs are used to lock two
systainers together. There are four sets of tabs (two on the
front and two on the sides) of each systainer.
