Lazer Z units only (Lazer Z XP units skip t o st ep 6)
1. When installing t he Ultra Vac onto a liquid cooled Lazer Z, t he r ear bum per plate must be
removed. Remove rear bumper plate. Use two of t he or iginal bolts, washers and whizlock
nuts to att ach the lower side bum per bar s to the vertical “HOT” engine guard shield.
2. Remove the lower two bolts holding the clutch guard plate (“HOT” engine guar d on liquid
cooled units) to the rear fr am e of the Lazer Z unit. Units with serial number s below
160,000 will require disassembly of the clutch strap spacers to remove these bolts.
3. On units with serial numbers above 190,000 install the mount weldment (Item 9) loosely to
the rear of the machine using t he t wo bolts and nuts removed in step 2.
For units with serial numbers below 190,000, inst all washers (I tem 31) between the bagger
mount weldment and clutch guard when installing the bagger mount weldment. This will

assembly. See figure 1.
For units with serial numbers below 160,000, r em ove the t wo tap bolts that tie the clutch
straps to t he clut ch guard and replace with new tap bolts (Item 32) . These units also
require the use of the washers (It em 31) bet ween the bag ger mount weldment and the

on the rear of the unit. See figure 1.
4. Jack the rear of the unit up and safely support it on jack stands. Remove the r ear wheels.
