removing the blower tubes! Never 
perform any maintenance or assem-

IMPORTANT!
This unit is equipped with a static 
discharge reduction wire. This wire 
helps direct static buildup into the air 
stream reducing the felt amount to the 
operator.

Check to make sure that the 90° dis-
charge tube swivels freely. If any 
binding is present, loosen 102 mm 
clamp and pull wire towards engine to 
get more slack and recheck for free 
movement.
The blower should now be ready 
for use.
