Trion barrel grip and newer hose, not working together

[ReneS]

I just received the Trion barrel grip from Recon, and the hose won't attach when the plug it cord is inserted, or vice versa. I have the smaller hose (27 mm??) with the bayonet attachment.

Is this a known issue?

Has anyone used a newer hose with the Trion barrel grip.

I am working with Festool USA customer service but thought I would ask here.

On my barrel grip Trion, they are close and probably touching when fully connected. But I've never had an issue getting both to connect with the newer style D27 hose and newer type dust port.

Thanks! I will try again. I was worried about breaking something.

Edit: Ok. I was able to get both on at the same time. Had to push the dust extractor adapter down to get the plug it on, but it worked.

Thanks again.

The RO125 is very close too. They don't interfere, but it is so close that you have to tighten the cord before slipping the hose on. Strangely, RO90 has much more distance between them.
