Can you connect a shop vac to the dust extraction port (eg Makita vac)

Why? It's battery powered, why tie yourself to a vacuum. I don't know if you can, but why try?

Probably not, but you may be able to fabricate something, although that would imo make it something more suited to a shop vac

Yes it hss a dust port. I haven't checked the size, but it appears to not be a common o.d.. bosch sells a dust bag to with it. I haven't purchased it though.

It has a universal port to hook up a vacuum hose to. I use a cheap craftsman, and other than the filter clogging up, it works fine.

I also use a shop vac with mine. The sander dust port has small nibs that hold my hose very well. I am icing a generic black plastic hose, and I am unsure of the size, but this system works well.

I wrote Dewalt a similar question and this is their word-for-word response: Thank you for contacting DEWALT on-line support. It is not recommended to attach a vac to this unit as the vac will fill up in no time due to the efficiency of the DW735 (95-98% of chips) versus other planers with dust extraction via a vac adapter and vacuum. The port or opening on the planer is there by design to pass a UL probe test, it is not designed to attach a shop vac to it for dust collection. We would recommend using the DW7353 Dust collection system instead of a secondary collector.

The reason it specifies a shop vac is because of the size of the vac connector. A regular vac will provide enough suction if the hose can be fit to the vac port which might pose a problem. In fact, the brush can be run through the duct without a vac at all. I've done it from outside with the dryer running with pretty good results with the advantage that the duct doesn't have to be disconnected. If you do it that way, just be careful not to drive the brush so deep that it runs into the dryer fan.

it has an adapter to fit the larger shop vac so i think it would directly fit up to the smaller hose. i found the tool to be cumbersome & quit using it. the vacuum works fine but took too long to sand.

The exhaust port is 22mm OD. I found the Fein 921072K13 Step Adaptor is a perfect fit to the Makita, and the Bosch VAC005 5-Meter Vacuum Hose 35mm fits perfectly to the Fein and to my Shop Vac. This was a perfect solution with no modifications required to anything. The Bosch hose has a swivel at the tool end and is small and flexible enough to work perfectly with the Makita RO sander.

The outsize port from the sander is 1 and 1/4". My shop vac is 2 and 1/2". I use the adapt. that comes with the sander and attach it to a 1 and 1/4 x 2 and 1/2 adapt. to my hose,zip tie the power cord of the sander to my vac hose to hold them together then away I go. When I'M done I cut the zip ties,then stow away. It works great. I got the adapt. at Home Depot.

The directions day that the dust collection shroud is designed to wrok with DWV9000 connector. I didn't have that piece and wasn't buying it. As to what size hose I used -- the small shop vac hose and duct tape to seal the two together. (A large shop vac hose was too large.

Yes, but I would take the filter out of the shop vac. It probably would not be needed if water is all you are picking up. The shop vac would need to be cleaned out before you picked up water so as not to make a gummy mess. I'm not sure why you would need the Dust Deputy cyclone if water was what you needed to pick up. The cyclone is meant to pick up heavier particles, like sawdust.

It comes with an adapter. If your vacuum has a standard hose end you won't even need to use it. I've used my set of attachments with several different makes and types of Vacs without any problems.

I don't know. However you can take off the sawdust bag and see if the vac hose will fit. If it fits, or is close use some duct tape or masking tape to make the seal airtight. Obviously, you will lose some flexibility with the sander, but it will be a easier clean-up . If you use the plastic plate with the nubs on it to pierce the sandpaper, the sander does a pretty good job of capturing the dust in the collection bag. I strongly suggest using ear plugs and/or protective headphones when using the sander, especially if using the sander with the vaccum.

if possible put the vac outside and connect thru an open window with an extension hose. Otherwise get an add-on fine filter for your vac. The dust can be phenomenal otherwise.

it could. might need an adapter to connect the hose to it, but I would be concerned about the dust issue. I use a shop vac with a bag and a 2nd filter on the air outlet, and still get some dust blowing out of the shop vac
