OPERATION

DO NOT OPERATE UNLESS

DEBRIS IS DISCHARGING

INTO AN ENCLOSED

CONTAINER

KEEP ENGINE CLEAN OF DEBRIS

EXHAUST DIRECTION & DISTANCE: Exhaust direction and distance are controlled by the angle of the exhaust deflector and by rotation of the exhaust elbow. Adjust the angle of the exhaust deflector to control the distance that debris is dis- charged. Typically debris is aimed to discharge to the rear of the container. The direction of discharge is adjusted by loosening the knobs on the exhaust elbow clamp and rotating the elbow to the desired direction.

NOTE: Elbow is heavy. Use caution when adjusting. Never stand directly under the elbow while adjusting direction of exhaust.

Never adjust exhaust deflector angle or direction of discharge while unit is running.

Never direct exhaust into an area where bystanders may cross the path of the debris.

INTAKE OPERATION: With machine running and fully assembled, move the nozzle in sweeping motions over debris. Always allow air to flow into the nozzle along with the debris. Do not completely block the nozzle when vacuuming, it will reduce performance, and increase clogging (See figure 3).

For removal of heavier debris, or debris that is stuck to the ground, rock nozzle forward to concentrate suction power around the debris (See figure 4).

HOSE CARE & USE TIPS

THE HOSE IS A REPLACEABLE WEAR ITEM.

FOR BEST HOSE OPERATION RESULTS, FOLLOW THESE RECOMMENDATIONS.

Be sure the hose is correctly installed by checking that the arrow printed on the hose indicating flow direction is pointing toward the vac housing.

Keep hose as straight as possible and avoid sharp bends during operation for best pick-up and to avoid clogs.

Never drag hose. Always remove and store hose before transporting unit.

Store hose straight and flat to maintain flexibility for next use.

To increase hose life, periodically rotate hose and reposition nozzle and coupler on front plate of unit. This increases hose life by keeping hose from wearing only on one side.
