Shop notes
The port measures about 36 mm and the hose about 38 mm, only 2 mm apart, so the port seats inside the hose as a friction fit. No reducer is needed for this pairing, so the Makita SP6000 track saw port and the Festool D36 antistatic hose connect directly.
It is a push fit, not a lock. Seat it fully and check it has not crept loose after a few minutes of vibration before you trust it on fine dust.
