Note: When installing Ultra Vac on Lazer Z HP model LHP4818KC with serial number below
176621, refer to additional necessary instructions included in adapter kit 103-0328.
1. Assemble the Upper (Item 6) and Lower (Item 7) Tubes using the (3) #10-24 x .75 Hex
Washer Head Screws (Item 8), (3) #10 washers (Item 9), and (3) #10-24 Nyloc Nuts (Item
10). Screw head should be installed to the inside of the tube to provide minimum
obstruction to flow. Make sure the hole with the arrow on the Upper Tube aligns with the
dimple in the Lower Tube to place the turnout on the Upper Tube in the correct position.
