Thread: Fein Dustex 25 plus Dust Deputy Delux

I have two vacuum cleaners and don't need both. The one for sale is a Fein Dustex 25 (which means it has a 25 lt capacity) along with a Dust Deputy Delux. This comes with all hoses and connections. The main hose is the 4m long 35mm Fein.





This is a powerful and relatively quiet vacuum cleaner.

The reason for having two vacuum cleaners is that I purchased the Fein about 6 years ago, but about a year ago it stopped working. It went in to the agents, who diagnosed a faulty computer. The computer controlled the variable speed and the automatic switch on when a sander or router was plugged into it. The cost of replacing the main board was more than I wanted to spend, and instead I spent a LOT more and purchased a Festool VC that ran into four figures. Don't tell my wife! Then I had a brain wave and had the Fein technician by-pass the computer and - hey presto - it works perfectly as a single speed machine. It has full suction. It is as quiet as ever. It just does not have variable speed or automatic switch on-off. It is still miles better than any machine you can purchase at double the price I am asking. I believe I paid $550 for the Fein.

Just the on-off is relevant ...



In addition, the Fein has a 0.3micron HEPA (washable) filter (that was a $125 accessory). This is as clean a machine as they come.



The Fein works hand-in-hand with a Dust Deputy. This is the Delux version that comes with 50mm hose and twin buckets (the one bucket is used as a holder for the second bucket). These sell for $189 at Carbatec. There is nothing to wear out. It is as good as new (better - I have reinforced the lid).



I want $275 for both (I am not going to sell them separately).

PM me if interested. Come around and have a look. I am in Rossmoyne (SOR).
