1. ASSEMBLE the upper handle (Item 11) to the lower handle

(Item 10). Line up the holes on the upper and lower handles.

Insert bolt (Item 49) with threads facing inside. Fasten the

handles together with the black knob (Item 57). Thread the

knob onto the bolt, and hand-tighten by rotating the knob

clockwise. Repeat this step on the other side of the handle to

secure the upper handle to the lower handle.

2. ATTACH the throttle lever (Item 23) to outside the handle

tubing. Insert bolt (Item 39) with washer (Item 36) from the

inside, with threads facing out. Secure the throttle lever with

second washer (Item 36) and nut (Item 37). Tighten with a

7/16” socket and wrench. Once attached, use a zip-tie to

secure the cable to the handle. Trim excess zip-tie with snips.

3. UNFOLD the debris bag (Item 21). Locate the quick

disconnect scoop (Item 12). Insert the quick disconnect

scoop into the bag through the large opening. Maneuver the

quick disconnect scoop through the bag and out the small

opening. Tighten the ratchet strap over the quick disconnect

scoop to secure. Close the large opening of the debris bag.

4. INSTALL the debris bag onto the housing discharge chute.

Open the discharge flap (Item 6) at the back of the housing.

Slide the quick disconnect scoop downward onto the housing

discharge chute.

OPERATION

VACUUMING OPERATION

VACUUM NOZZLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT: Nozzle height is raised and lowered by

rotating the red knob near the left rear wheel. Nozzle height should be adjusted based on

the task being performed. (See Fig. 4)

FOR MAXIMUM PICKUP:Adjust nozzle close to debris, but without blocking airflow into

the nozzle. NOTE: Never bury nozzle into debris.

CLEARING A CLOGGED NOZZLE & EXHAUST: Turn the engine off and wait for

impeller to stop completely and disconnect spark plug wire. Wearing durable gloves,

remove clog.

DANGER,the clog may contain sharp materials. Reconnect spark plug wire.

DEBRIS BAG

Debris bags are normal replaceable wear items.

NOTE: Frequently empty debris to prevent bag overloading with more weight than you can lift.

An optional felt bag is available for use where debris will be vacuumed in dusty conditions (see “Accessories” shown on page 1).

DO NOT place bag on or near hot surface, such as engine. Be sure engine has come to a complete stop before removing or

emptying bag.

This vacuum is designed for picking up trash, organic material and other similar debris (see “Safety and General Operation

manual”).

However, many vacuums are used where dust is mixed with trash. Your unit can intermittently vacuum in dusty areas. Dust is the

greatest cause of lost vacuum performance. However, following these rules will help maintain your machine's ability to vacuum in

dusty conditions:

• Run machine at idle to quarter throttle.

• The debris bag must be cleaned frequently. A vacuum with a clean, pillow soft bag will have good pickup performance. One

with a dirty, tight bag will have poor pickup performance. If dirty, empty debris and vigorously shake bag free of dust.

• Pressure-wash debris bag if normal cleaning does not fully clean bag. Bag should be thoroughly dry before use.

NOTE: Having one or more spare debris bags is a good way to reduce down time while dirty bags are being cleaned.

DO NOT leave debris in bag while in storage.

COMPOST

Vacuumed leaves, grass and other organic material from your own yard can be emptied into a pile or composter to provide

enriched soil for later use as fertilizer in gardens and flower beds. NOTE: Allow green chips to dry before spreading around living

plants.

MAINTENANCE

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

Periodic maintenance should be performed at the following intervals:

Engine (See Engine Manual)

Check for excessive vibration 

IMPELLER REMOVAL

1. Wait for engine to cool and disconnect spark plug.

2. Drain fuel and oil from the engine.

3. Remove bag, quick release, and upper handle. Do not kink, stretch, or break control cables, control housings, or

end fittings while removing handles.

4. Remove housing top plate by removing bolts around outside of housing.

5. Leaving engine fastened to top plate, turn it upside down so the impeller is on top.

6. Remove impeller bolt and lock washer and washer.

7. Lift impeller upward. If impeller slides freely, proceed to step 10.

8. To loosen Impeller, place two crowbars between impeller and housing on opposite sides. Pry impeller away from

engine until it loosens. Using a penetrating oil can help loosen a stuck impeller.

9. If the impeller does not loosen, use two pry bars and pull the impeller near the hub away from the engine, this

should loosen it and allow you to remove the impeller from shaft. Using a penetrating oil can help loosen a stuck

impeller.

10. Using a new impeller bolt and lockwasher and washer, reinstall new impeller in reverse order.

11. Tighten impeller bolt. Torque impeller bolt to 33-38 Ft. Lbs. (44-51 N.m) (see item 30 on page 15).
