ATTACHING THE VACUUM TUBES
There are 2 vacuum tubes, an upper
and lower tube. The upper tube is cut
straight on both ends and attaches to
the blower unit. The lower tube at-
taches to the upper tube, and has an
angled end that you point toward the
ground during vacuum use.
1. Ensure unit is stopped and exten-
sion cord is unplugged.
2. Locate the arrows on the upper vac-
uum tube and on the vacuum inlet
area of the unit.

3. While holding the inlet cover open,
align the arrows and insert the vac-
uum tube into the opening. Twist the
tube clockwise until it is seated. A
second arrow on the vacuum tube
will align with the arrow on the unit
once the tube is twisted completely
into place.
Align arrows on tube & unit
4. To attach the lower vacuum tube to
the upper vacuum tube, first align
the arrows on the two tubes. Then,
press the two tubes together until
the lower tube is securely seated in
the upper tube (about 3 inches).
