How to join a Makita LS1019L miter saw port to a Makita 28 mm anti-static hose, and what stops it leaking dust.
Not a direct fit. Joining the Makita LS1019L miter saw port to a Makita 28 mm anti-static hose needs a 1-3/8 in to 28 mm step reducer.

Shop notes
Measured across the joint between the Makita LS1019L miter saw port and the Makita 28 mm anti-static hose, the port socket (35 mm) is 7 mm larger than the hose tip (28 mm), so the hose tip rattles inside without gripping. A 1-3/8 in to 28 mm step reducer closes that 7 mm step so the two hold together instead of leaking at the gap.
A 7 mm mismatch feels close enough to force, and it will hold for a minute before it works loose under airflow. Fit the step ring rather than trusting friction on a gap this size.
