    Hi, for the life of me I cannot figure out how to get one of the attachments into this electric grout remover. Has anyone ever used one of these or can advise? Brand is Plasplugs. Thanks.

    I'm only guessing now Anne but did you try to remove the blue cone shaped piece at the top of the tool?

    From the pictures it looks like it needs to be removed to fit in the allen key.

    There seems to be a gap in it that might possibly allow a clip to be unlocked with a small flat tool.

    I'm still guessing by the way, never used one before.

    That would be my guess too. If you have a small flat head screwdriver, pry off the blue cone

    That actually worked! I had to twist the hexagonal bit around which revealed a hole for the allan key! Thanks so much!
