HOSE SETUP, ATTIC:
Cellulose: For normal attic applications, use
a minimum of 100 feet of 3 inch hose on
your job. Longer hose length decreases both
capacity and material throw. Using 200 feet of
hose, capacity and throw will be reduced by
approximately 30%. If you must use a hose
longer than 150 feet, reduce the hose size to
2- ⁄ inch diameter for the last 50'.

Fiberglass: Use a minimum of 150 feet of hose. Use 100 feet of 3" hose and a
50 foot section of 2-1/2" hose using a 3 x 2-1/2" steel hose reducer. This hose
configuration aids in the opening of the fiber and increases the throw of the
material.

HOPPER SAFETY:
whenever you are using any machine. Following the instructions in this manual
along with good common sense, should allow you to complete your job in a safe
and efficient manner. First, before loading your FORCE/2, follow all safety
considerations provided by the manufacturer of the insulation material you are
using, including wearing protective masks or respirators. Never wear loose clothing
or other items while running this machine. Failure to follow safety precautions may
result in permanent injury.
Any time you overload the hopper or place objects other than
insulation material into the hopper, you are risking personal
injury or equipment breakdown.
Your safety is the most important consideration
