ASSEMBLY
INSTALLING THE VACUUM TUBES
See Figures 5 - 6.
WARNING:
Rotating impeller blades can cause severe injury. Always
stop the engine before opening the vacuum door or
installing/changing tubes. Do not put hands or any other
object into the vacuum tubes while they are installed on
the unit.
To install the vacuum tubes:
Place the unit on its side to allow easy access to the vacuum
door.
Secure the upper and lower vacuum tubes together by
aligning the raised locking tabs with the raised slots.
Align the screw holes in the lower tube with the raised slot in
the upper tube. Adjust the length and secure with supplied
screws.
Using a flathead screwdriver, rotate the screw securing the
vacuum door counterclockwise to release.
Place the lip on the upper vacuum tube beneath the hinge
of the vacuum door. This will allow the screw on the other
side to seat in the threaded hole.
Using a flathead screwdriver, tighten the screw to secure.
To remove the vacuum tubes, reverse the above steps.
