GENERAL SAFETY
For your safety and the safety of others, these directions should be followed:
Do not operate this machine without first reading
owner's manual and engine manufacturer's manual.
·DO NOT operate during excessive vibration.
·DO NOT remove bag until engine has been turned off and has
come to a complete stop.
Use of Ear Protection is recommended while
operating this machine.
·DO NOT remove hose kit cap on nozzle until engine has been
turned off and has come to a complete stop.
Use of Eye and Breathing protection is recom-
mended when using this machine, especially in dry
and dusty conditions. Debris bag directs dust toward
ground, away from the operator and the optional Felt
Filter reduces the amount of dust reintroduced into the
environment.
·DO NOT operate machine with hose cap, bag or hose removed.
·DO NOT use this machine for vacuuming exclusively sand,
dust, fine dirt, rock, glass, string like material, grain, rags,
cans, metal, bark or water.
·DO NOT operate this machine on slopes greater than 20%.
·DO NOT pick up any hot or burning debris, or any toxic or
explosive material.
·DO NOT place hands or feet inside nozzle intake opening,
near debris outlet or near any moving parts.
·DO NOT start engine without debris bag connected firmly in
place to exhaust outlet.
·DO NOT allow children to operate this equipment.
·DO NOT start or operate machine with debris bag zipper
open.
These items should be included in your carton. If any
of these parts are missing, contact your dealer.

Operation
INTENDED USE: This machine is designed for vacuuming
leaves, grass clippings and other types of organic litter as
well as debris mixed with cans, bottles and small amounts of
sand; however, vacuuming cans, bottles and sand will affect
the longevity of your machine.
16.3
DEBRIS BAG
Debris bags are normal replaceable wear items.
Note: Frequently empty debris to prevent bag overloading with
more weight than you can lift.
Like all mechanical tools, reasonable care must
be used when operating machine.
Bag liners are included and available for use in various conditions
where debris will be vacuumed. (see Bag Liner Options shown on page 1).
Do not operate if excessive vibration occurs. If excessive
vibration occurs, shut engine off immediately and check for
damaged or worn impeller, loose impeller bolt, loose impeller
key, loose engine or lodged foreign objects. Note: See parts list
for proper impeller bolt torque specifications. (See trouble
shooting section on page 7).
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 Warnings page 2-3).
Many vacuums are used where dust is mixed with trash. Your
unit can intermittently vacuum in dusty areas. However, following
these rules will help maintain your machine's ability to vacuum in
dusty conditions:
Inspect machine work area and machine before operat-
ing. Make sure that all operators of this equipment are
trained in general machine use and safety.
PUT OIL IN ENGINE BEFORE STARTING.
•Run machine at idle to quarter throttle.
•Machine or pressure-wash debris bag if normal cleaning does
not fully clean bag. Bag should be thoroughly dry before use.
16.1
STARTING
ENGINE: See engine manufacturer’s instructions
for type and amount of oil and gasoline used.
Engine must be level when checking and filling oil and
gasoline.
Having one or more spare Felt Filter (890435) is a good way to reduce
down time while dirty bags are being cleaned.
Do not store with debris in bag. Organic
debris generates heat during decomposi-
tion and could damage the bag or start a fire.
ENGINE SPEED: Controlled by throttle lever on the handle.
Under normal conditions, operate at minimum throttle to
accomplish your current cleaning task.
FUEL VALVE: Move fuel valve to "ON" position (Honda only).
CHOKE: Operated with throttle control (Honda).
Post to prime (Briggs & Stratton).
16.4
HANDLING & TRANSPORTING:
Using two people to lift machine is recommended. Lift holding the
handle and front of nozzle. Secure in place during transport.
NOTE: Outer bag and rod (items 1 and 3) MUST depress the
bag presence switch (item 17) for the unit to start. See fig.1
16.5
STORAGE
IF YOUR UNIT FAILS TO START:
See Troubleshooting on page 8.
Never store engine indoors or in enclosed poorly ventilated
areas with fuel in tank, where fuel fumes may reach an open
flame, spark or pilot light, as on a furnace, water heater, clothes
dryer or other gas appliance.
16.2
VACUUMING OPERATION
VACUUM NOZZLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT: The
vacuum nozzle is raised and lowered by pulling slightly
upward on handle and pulling height adjust T-Handle (item
23) at operators left hand. Lift handle up or down to desired
height, then release T-handle.
If engine is to be unused for 30 days or more, prepare as
follows:
Be sure engine is cool. Do not smoke. Remove all
gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to prevent gum deposits
from forming on these parts and causing possible malfunction of
engine. Drain fuel outdoors, into an approved container, away
from open flame. Run engine until fuel tank is empty and
engine runs out of gasoline.
FOR MAXIMUM PICKUP: Adjust nozzle height as
close to debris as possible, but without blocking airflow into the
nozzle. NOTE: Never bury nozzle into debris.
CLEARING A CLOGGED NOZZLE
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer (such as Sta-Bil) is an acceptable
alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits
during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage
container. Always follow mix ratio found on stabilizer container.
Run engine at least 10 min. after adding stabilizer to allow it to
reach the carburetor.
& 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.
