Will Fit a Dewalt 779/780 miter saw nicely!
This adapter works very well with my Dewalt 779 miter saw. You need to cut it down to the last large size, then carefully with an razor knife, cut the remaining lip till you remove enough so it fits snuggly over the exhaust tube on the saw. If you remove all the inner lip, the adapter will fit but be loose. Just cut and try then cut more till you have a nice snug fit.

    I bought this tool to connect my Craftsman 20 Gal Wet & Dry Vacuum to my Dewalt DWS780 Miter Saw ...
    I bought this tool to connect my Craftsman 20 Gal Wet & Dry Vacuum to my Dewalt DWS780 Miter Saw for use as a dust collection. It did not connect and I didn't want to jerry rig the adaptor with duct tape. I returned this tool and purchased the 2 in. x 1-1/2 in. DWV Flexible PVC Coupling from Home Depot. (Model # P1056-215). I did have to put some duct tape around the exit tube of the Dewalt Miter Saw to get a tight fit between the coupling and the saw. I then tightened the screw and the clamp so the coupling stays connected to the saw. I hope this helps someone.

      It does not connect the two ends well. I need to tape it to the product so that it sticks and doesn’t fall out

      Adapter still needs another adapter to fit the hose. Rigid tools should fit together without gerryrigging with rubber hose connectors and hose clamps. Too many trips to the store to make it work. Designers and engineers should be flogged.

      Hello HomeDepotCustomer,

      Thanks for writing a review and we apologize for the inconvenience. While we don’t know the type of connections you are trying to achieve. The VT1755 are set of 2 reducers from a bigger hose to a smaller accessory (2 1/2" hose to 1 7/8" accessory and 1 7/8" hose to 1 1/4" accessory) and a hose-to-hose connector for 2 1/2" hoses. We would like to know what type of hose and accessory you are using for us to provide you the correct set up or adapter needed. You may call our Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or send us an email at info@ridgidvacs.com and we'll be glad to assist you.

      I bought this as a conversion for my standard-size shop vac hose to plug into the reduced size vac port on the back of a Dewalt compound miter saw. Does not fit. Product might be male/male connector for large -> small vac hoses or something, but definitely not for the intended application.

      I had hoped this would work with my Makita 18V hand planer, but unless I cut off some of the smaller sections, it won't work. Fortunately the auxiliary hose I purchased from HD works great.

      Please measure the inside/outside diameter of your dust collection port carefully before buying this. It is not a panacea and does not work with all sizes. Did not work with my Craftsman miter saw. The 3pc adapter by Ridgid worked better.

          It works fine but I would like to see one more smaller size added to it. It was a bit to big to blow up my grandchild's pool.
