Do you want inside diameter or outside diameter?? I have the 1800, same machine, but it has the sander attached. Dust port would be the same.

I'll go out to the shop and measure it. Do you need the depth too? Let me know.

I'm not exactly sure of the diameter, but I can tell you the small hose from my shop vac fits it perfectly.

My shop vac has a 2 1/2" hose. I bought a 2 1/2" to 1 1/4" adapter and it fits the port perfectly. The adapter is only a couple bucks at Home Depot. Hope this helps!
