The 60V MAX* DEWALT Universal Attachment Capable System is available as a String Trimmer Kit and an Edger Kit that converts to other DEWALT outdoor tools by changing the DEWALT universal attachments (sold separately). Both the trimmer (DCST972B or DCST972X1) and the edger (DCED472B or DCED472X1), with the following attachments, can be quickly converted to a:
- Brush cutter with an 8-in. cutting swath (DWOAS5BC)
- Pole saw with an auto-oiling 8-in. bar and chain (DWOAS6PS)
- 22-in. dual action blade hedge trimmer with a 135-degree articulating head (DWOAS8HT)
- High-performance axial blower (DWOAS7BL)
- DWOAS9ST (string trimmer attachment) is not sold individually and comes with the trimmer (DCST972B or DCST972X1)
The Trimmer (DCST972B or DCST972X1) can also be converted to an edger through the DWOAS4ED edger attachment, which features a 7.5-In. steel blade, maneuverable wheel and angled head; this is effectively the same thing as the 60V MAX* Universal Attachment Capable Edger (DCED472B or DCED472X1).
MANUALS: It's important to send the manual for both the Powerhead (DCST972B) AND the manual for the attachment(s) the customer is using. NOTE: The manual for DCED472B or DCED472X1 (the edger) is not available; instead, send them the manual for DCST972B (Powerhead) and DWOAS4ED (edger attachment). The manual for DCST972B or DCST972X1 would be the manual of DCST972B (Powerhead) and the manual for DWOAS9ST (string trimmer attachment). All manuals are attached to this article.

This article is false. I just bought a husqvarna power broom attachment for my dewalt string trimmer that is attachment capable and they are not compatible . Husqvarna and dewalt tools are not compatible
Dewalt support is aware that the Husqvarna attachments are not compatible, so far they have not addressed the issue on this website.
The Dewalt universal attachment power heads use a square drive and push retaining pin, the Husqvarna attachments are a splined drive and use a clamp on the attachment shaft, they're not even close to similar and Dewalt has been unable to provide a list of any compatible Husqvarna attachments at this time.
Dewalt really needs to take a page out of Milwaukee's book and make more compatible attachments in house, this is a joke.
