OPERATION
VACUUM OPERATION
WARNING: The maximum RPM's on the unit's engine are set. Altering them from the factory settings could
potentially damage the unit and void warranty.
VACUUM NOZZLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT: Adjust by turning the knob clockwise to increase height and counter-clockwise to
lower it. Adjust nozzle height according to surface conditions and debris size. For vacuuming on flat surfaces, set nozzle 1/2"
(12.7 mm) to 5/8" (15.8 mm) above ground. Adjust higher for uneven terrain and turf.
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 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.
PROPULSION
First set the forward or reverse lever to the desired position. (Having the lever straight up will put the unit into neutral). To drive in
a straight path squeeze both levers, for turning right squeeze the right lever only and likewise to turn left, squeeze the left lever.
When no levers are engaged the unit will freewheel. DO NOT partially engage the transmission when engaging the levers. The
levers must be completely engaged. Prolonged use of partial engagement could cause internal damage to transmission.
DEBRIS BAG
Debris bags are normal replaceable wear items.
NOTE: Frequently empty debris to prevent bag overloading with more weight than you can lift. Use the dust skirt when
debris will be vacuumed in dusty conditions.
DO NOT place bag on or near hot surface, such as engine. Run engine at 1/2 throttle for first 1/2 hour to condition new bag.
Your new bag requires a break-in period to condition the pores of the material against premature blockage. The entire bag
surface serves as a filter, and must be able to breathe to have good vacuum performance. Be sure engine has come to a
complete stop before removing or emptying bag.
HOOD FILTER
Hood filters are normal replaceable wear items. The hood filter is for use in dry dusty conditions only. DO NOT get the filter wet.
Clean with light compressed air only.
DUST SOCK
Dust socks are normal replaceable wear items. See dust sock care next page.
DUSTY CONDITIONS
This vacuum is designed for picking up trash, organic material and other similar debris. 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 more 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. 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.
