I have some off brand attachments that I want to adapt to my Stihl Kombitool. They are 9 spline female on the tool itself. The tools are for harvesting fruit, one is a shaker and the other is a set of plastic fingers that were designed to harvest olives, I’m going to try to use it for cherries. The end of the kombi tool is a square female with two little wires that I think are supposed to act as a guide.
I have been able to find 9 spline shafts on both ends but not much else. Amy ideas or suggestions. Much appreciated.

Do you have a good machine shop where you live? They might be able to machine a coupler for you.

Keep in mind that I have no idea if these vendors are trust worthy or have accurate listings.
I never tried to order anything from them either.
I was considering a backpack type trimmer setup and the shaft end shapes were a question for me. Health issues have made me put that dream aside for now.

That said, I've seen some stuff like that listed on the Aliexpress site. A mixture of shaft end types.
But the highly repetitive usage of identical, obviously copied, photos left me feeling a bit hesitant.
Sometimes the "stock photos" didn't match the written descriotions.
I think that I would want to contact anyone there, IF I were trying to do business with them and get some answers and any return policy info.

I tried ordering one of the shafts you mention from Ali express.. it never showed up. It was a 9 spline on one end and a female square on the other end. The problem there is the receiving end on the Stihl power head is also a female square. I was thinking about getting the 9spline on both ends then cutting off one side and just grinding my own square end on it.
