15-ft. Vac Kit Assembly (Optional)
The optional vacuum kit, 15 feet long and 4" in
diameter, is used to vacuum and grind leaves, pine
straw and other loose organic waste. The kit is sold
separately; instructions are provided here and with the
kit for your convenience.
FIRST
Insert two 1.25"-20 carriage bolts from inside the
nozzle and through the holes in the handle. Fasten
with the two 1/4"-20 serrated flange nuts provided
using a 7/16" wrench.
SECOND
Push one end of the hose firmly into the nozzle. The
nozzle has what is called a "regressive" fit. Turn the
nozzle a few times to adjust the angle of the nozzle.
THIRD*
Thread the other end of the hose into the adaptor
about three inches. You may need to tug it through
from the other side.
FOURTH*
When you want to use the vac, snap the adaptor into
the hopper before you turn on the engine. The adaptor
only fits with the DANGER decal on your right as you
stand behind the machine.
FIFTH & LAST*
Snap the cone cover over the chipper cone. This seals
off all air flow for maximum vacuuming power.
