could someone please tell me what connections would i need to connect to my dust deputy if i was to have a 2 1/2 hose, not sure how to go about it?

The hose from the shop vac connects to the top of the Dust Deputy, and the hose leading to the tool (table saw, router, band saw, etc.) connects to the side of the Dust Deputy. Just slide the vacuum hose over the nozzle ports on the Dust Deputy, switch on the shop vac, and you're ready to go. No more dust will get into the shop vac, so you'll never have to replace the filter again. Just empty the container beneath the Dust Deputy when it gets about half full. I use a 5-gallon bucket under my Dust Deputy.

This may be a little unorthodox but I was able to wrap the input hose connection with duct tape until it fit my hose. The hose connection on the dust deputy is tapered so it will fit a few sizes of hole but not 2.5 inches.

the 2 1/4 hose from a shop vac fits right into the slots perfect. for the 2.5 inch stuff i put about 4 wraps of thick duct tape around the dust deputy slot and the 2.5 hose fits just right over that . It all works under vacuum so it all stays in place very well

There are adapters you can get for it. You'll want to measure the actual size of the hose's inlet first though as the listed hose size usually refers to the hose itself and not the inlets (i.e. shop vac has 1.5" hoses but they're actually 2" at the inlet cuff). The cyclone inlets have an inner diameter of 1.75" so you can stick some hoses into them.

would not connect directly. You would have to fashion your own discharge pipe (ex. 1&1/2 PVC with an adapter cap that reduces from 1 1/2 to 3/4" with threads. Then buy a 3/4"-3/4" adapter (one end is threaded for the PVC reducer, one end is garden hose threads). You may/may not want to get a 45 or 90 degree elbow. PVC cement where needed, thread tape/compound where needed. I built a rescue pump from my old sump pump (new one is in the pit). Your local hardware store should have everything.

I think you can get a 1-1/2 to 1-1/4 adapter like this http://www.grainger.com/product/BOSCH-Hose-Adapter-5UVF2

I have the miter saw hooked to my shop dust collection system via some adapters I had to make so that the 39mm saw exhaust opening could connect to a 2" hose. It works better when hooked to the air system. There is still some stray sawdust that accumulates behind the saw so it isn't perfect by any means.

The directions day that the dust collection shroud is designed to wrok with DWV9000 connector. I didn't have that piece and wasn't buying it. As to what size hose I used -- the small shop vac hose and duct tape to seal the two together. (A large shop vac hose was too large.

The long attachment comes off essentially leaving you with a dustbuster that has a round suction hole. I don't think you can buy a hose, but you might be able to rig something up with spare parts.

Hose must be the size of the dust port. A reducer or expander could be coupled to the hose of the vac to make a good fit.

When you remove the cloth output filter you will see that two different diameter hose connections can be made. One connection has an OD of about 1 inch and the other about 1.5 inches. I did not have a connection that fit either of them. But, I had some 1.25 inch OD/1.0 inch ID clear vinyl hose that made a perfect connection between my small Shop Vac hose and the sander. This vinyl hose can be purchased very cheaply at many hardware stores by the foot. It only took four inches of it to make a solid connection that has never come off during use. If I could I would insert a photo but see no way to do that. Hope this helps. It really is a great RO sander.

DeWALT makes a "universal connector" to connect a shop vac hose, but it's hard to find. I simply taped a 1 1/2 shop vac hose to the shroud using heavy-duty duct tape. It worked fine, and was hanging on tight after I ground 580 sq ft of concrete. Probably would have stayed connected forever if I hadn't cut it off when I was done. I wouldn't bother with the special DeWALT connector, since its so hard to get and costs another $20 or so. Next time I have to use the dust shroud with a vacuum, I will just use some more duct tape!

the connectors it is talking about are to connect the hoses and tools to the compressor. you cannot connect a 1/4" hose directly to the compressor, but they make "kits" that have all kinds of adapters for attaching to accessories so that you can inflate all kinds of balls, tires, small swimming pools, etc., etc. If you JUST want to connect a 1/4" hose and nothing else, you need to go to a hardware store and they can find the proper fittings to reduce the line down to 1/4". I tried to use mine for my airbrush but it was way too noisy to use in the house for that. hope this helps?

This saw would need the adapter for dust collection which is designed for a 4" dust hose. You will need to make or purchase an adapter. Please keep in mind portable vacuums like yours only have 130 CFM which is low for this type of application. I would recommend a dust collector with a minimum of 700+ CFM.

I will check it when I get home. As I remember, all hoses are attachable, since there was a reducer on it. I think the direct connection was 3/4". Steven

The 3/8" male and 3/8" female fittings that this hose comes with, obviously, won't fit the wand or hose that your unit came with. If I were you, I would call Simpson's '800' number and tell them what fittings this hose you want to purchase, comes with and find out if there is an adapter that would complete your connection(s), or they may have another way to help yo. They should easily answer that question. Good Luck!

I put a small 1-1/2" hose, about six foot long, directly into the shroud; then using a reducer into the large hose on the vacuum. It works great. Be sure to always use the special dust bag inside your vacuum...this protects the main filter from clogging up.

You'll need a 1/4" coupler to connect to 1/4" hose and accessories. Hoses come in several lengths and qualities depending on the type of job you're using this for. I use my compressor for blowing out dust from electronic equipment, airing up tires and other very minor jobs and an inexpensive plastic coil hose has worked fine. I also purchased a lower end 1/4" accessory kit, which came with the coupler for the same reasons.
