I must be missing something, but the attachments that came with this dont fit in the hole of the collet. Am I missing something?

Could be. Best to contact Black and Decker, then Amazon if you are truly missing parts.

Its a crappy system. You have to use the wrench to "unlock" the circular bit. That all of it out. Inside there is a cylinder with a spherical head towards the top. Take that out too. Now insert the bit through the big thing you unscrewed, and into the cylinder with the spherical head towards the top. When you push up on it, it will "tighten" the grip on your attachment part.Now just put it all back together, and tighten with the wrench.Hope that helps.

I had a similar problem and found the there is a small tube that sits inside the actual hole of the collet. I removed the collet unit and althou you can hardly see it, I managed to shake it out. Once it was out I was able to fit it on the attachments and then back in the collet and then was able to tighten the whole thing to hold the attachment. I hope this will help you because I was really frustrated until I discovered the little tube part of the collet.

You could get a bigger collet, but I'd recommend replacing the original w/ Dremel 4486 MultiPro Keyless Chuck. ($8.13) (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000302ZV/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1) I love mine & it will accommodate most Dremel accessories.

Hi Sabrina, the attachments are simply inserted into the main unit via a 3/4 inch round post at the base of the attachments. This is simply a friction fitting, there are no threads, simply place the attachment post into the hole on the bottom of the unit. Hope that helps......

That happened to mine when it was shipped so I called 800-4DREMEL, somebody there walked me through the process. It's sort of hard for me to explain but I'll try. Take off the collet nut, if you see a silver colored shaft still sticking out of the nut pull it out if you can, if you can't pull it out then push it out using something hard like a pen or the little screw driver/wrench thing that came with it. Then put the collet back into the dremel unit followed by the collet nut, then the shaft that has the drum disk goes in and tighten it down. Hopefully that helps somebody. If all else fails call the nice people at the company. I was very pleased with their customer service and my dog is pleased that I don't use the guillotine clippers on her anymore.

Ya know, I think it must be a standard size because my old attachments fit it, BUT I'm not that happy w/ that thing:(When I try to adjust it to different lengths, it's not easy to do and doesn't stay put either.

Makita doe's make different size collets for this tool. Contact them at their customer service number and tell them your problem. I have this tool and it only came with one collet. I had to order another. I don't remember which one it came with but now I have a 1/8th and a 1/4 in. collet. It's a great tool for getting into tight places. Try taking the collet out and run some kind of a tapered punch or steel rod through the center hole. Maybe it's got a burr or the tangs need to be sprung open. The tool should have come with the 1/4 in collet.

I purchased it for the "multi-attachment" base but everything that I have seen seems to look compatible. Hope this helps!

Although the attachments that come with it snap into place, I measured and tried a standard 1 1/4" attachment from a regular vacuum and it fit....I was actually surprised by that.

This attachment did not fit my 5KSS, and I had to return it. Contact the supplier, and he will tell you which hook is the correct one for your machine. BTW, the return process was painless. ck

you seem to be missing a part. the saw assembly and hook should have a black plastic tailpiece attached that fits right into the pole and snaps in just like a pole extension. the screw that goes through the head base connects the tailpiece that fits right into the pole

no, couldn't figure it out, the attachments didn't seem to fit anywhere on the truck.

On some models you need a small universal adapter which is reasonably priced. Go to the Dyson website and type in your model number. It will guide you to the parts. You can look it up. The attachments are compatible with most models for I have owned several models.. I hope you find this information helpful. 3.

No you would need a different attachment piece to work on something that size. Check their website I believe they have what u need.

Hi Austin, I only use the two pieces and have no attachments. Sorry i couldn't help. Try calling the company you bought it from and see if you can return it. My two piece does not leak.

The description I read says that it comes with the 1/4" collet and that he 1/2 in collet is not included. I bought mine used off of Ebay and it was included in that package. I obtained an awesome router with accessories, including 6 bits in excelent shape for $75.00.
