ASSEMBLING THE BLOWER TUBES
See Figures 2 - 4.
Attach upper end of the bellows onto the blower housing
by sliding it over the air outlet. The raised ridge on the air
outlet should securely fit into the slot inside the bellows
when the bellows is properly installed.
Place a tube clamp onto the outer slot of the end of the
bellows.
NOTE: Be sure to place the throttle cable inside the slot
in the tube clamp.
With the provided assembly tool, insert a screw on the
back side of the tube clamp closest to the unit as shown
and tighten securely.
Insert a screw into the other side of the tube clamp and
tighten securely.
NOTE: Make sure not to pinch the throttle cable when
installing the tube clamps.
Press the throttle control handle tube into the other side of
the bellows. The raised ridge on the throttle control handle
tube should securely fit into the slot inside the bellows when
properly installed. Place a tube clamp over the end of the
bellows. Tighten the tube clamp using the assembly tool.
NOTE: The position of the throttle control handle may be
adjusted for comfort after the blower is strapped onto the
operator's back.
Join the straight tube and nozzle together by aligning
the raised locking tabs on straight tube with the raised
locking slots on the nozzle and twist until the tubes snap
into the locked position to secure.
NOTE: Always make sure the arrows are aligned as shown.
Only then are the tubes in the locked correctly position.
NOTICE:
When correctly assembled, the tubes are difficult to
separate. If they can easily be twisted apart, the tubes
are not locked. Continue twisting together until the tubes
snap into the locked position. Tubes that are not fully
locked together can separate during blower operation.
Assemble the connected straight tube and nozzle to the
throttle control handle tube by aligning raised locking tabs
on the throttle control handle tube with the raised locking
slots on connected lower tubes by twisting to secure.
