Trouble connecting 36mm hose to TS55

[businessascasual]

Hey all, I feel silly saying this but I am unable to get the end of my 36mm antistatic hose over the dust port on my TS55. Has anyone else had this issue? I’ve tried it with and without the swivel piece that comes with the saw. The hose fits just fine over my kapex so the issue seems to be with the diameter of the saw port. Is there some kind of attachment needed?

You'll want to use the swivel piece that comes with the saw. If you have the newer style swivel piece and newer hose with bayonet fitting (e.g. not smooth and plain), you'll want to align the arrows before pushing/wiggling it on, then twisting to lock it in place. If you're still stuck, a picture will let us better help you.
