Attaching Makita ROS to vac hose

[joec]

I just purchased my first Festool. The CT33 vac. I have a Makita ROS and was wondering if there was a adapter that I could buy that would adapt to this sander?

I'm sure this will fit your sander but it is a good start, Fein stepped adapter. This adapter fit the Festool hose and will likely fit your sander too.

Hi joec, welcome to the forum. Which sander model do you have exactly? Also, what's the outer diameter of the dust port of your sander? I believe that on most current Makita sanders the dust port is either 25 or 27 mm, and if so, you could just slide the Festool hose right over it. Maybe use a little tape to thicken the dust port, but that's it.
