20 DR  COMMERICAL LEAF and LAWN VACUUM Safety & Operating Instructions
4. We have supplied both a 7" to 6" and 8" to 6" Hose Adapter. Determine which best
fits your lawn deck adapter.
5. Slip the Hose Adapter over the cut end of your Lawn Deck Adapter, until they
make contact.
6. Position the assembly beside your tractor and rotate Hose Adapter so that the hose
latches will be located with one on top and one on the bottom of the Adapter
(Figure 21).
7. Drill a 3/8" hole through the Hose Adapter and Lawn Deck Adapter tube at a
predrilled hole in the Hose Adapter (Figure 21) and secure the Adapter in place with
a 5/16" Bolt, Nut and Washer by inserting the bolt through the drilled hole from
the inside the Adapter tube.
8. Attach the washer and nut on the outside of the Adapter tube, thus preventing
debris from collecting on the retaining hardware (Figure 21).
9. Repeat Steps 7 & 8 two more times as shown around the Hose Adapter (Figure 21).
Note: Two holes are provided in the Hose Adapter as guides. The third hole should be
drilled on top of the Hose Adapter for ease of assembly.
10. Tighten the nuts with a 1/2" wrench or socket. Be careful not to over tighten and
damage the Hose Adapter.
11. Re-install the lawn deck adapter.
