1010 router dust collection

Could anyone tell me what accessory I need to connect a round 27mm hose to the oval dust port on the router? 

Thanks,

Pat

You should just need your hand, to shape the hose end a little more oval and slide it on to the connection on the routers dust port.
(This is assuming there is already a black end on the hose, not just the green hose with no end part ...)

maybe the problem is, the hose isn't from festool.  is there any other connection i could get to do this?

I'd say you need to locate that rubber nozzle that fits on the end of the green plastic hose and connects to the oval snout on the router.  I did not see it as an accessory on the Festool website.  But maybe try calling up Festool and see if they have just the rubber hose end available for you to buy.  Or maybe try Fein for accessories that may fit onto the green plastic hose.  If the one end of the rubber is about 27mm or so in size, then you could use duct tape to connect the larger end to the plastic hose.

Bosch makes a 5m hose that connects securely  to Festool fittings.  It fits 2.25" standard vacuum ports on the other end.  It's a nice hose. About $35.

Despite my multitude of Festools, I use Fein vacs and use their step adapters (Fein 921072K13 Step Adaptor-Amazon Prime
$5.99) on all my sanders (RO90, DTS400, RTS400, RTS125, and  RO125).  I also use these for my non-Festools...Makita, Milwaukee,b Bosch, etc.
