DR  COMMERICAL LEAF and LAWN VACUUM Safety & Operating Instructions 31
Tip: Give the Dump Handle a little shake after emptying the Collector Box to loosen up
the remaining material. Then drive forward about a foot with the Collector Box in
the dump position. Shake the handle again and then lower the Tilt Bed back down
until the Dump Lever locks into place. This usually gets all but a small amount of
material to dump from the Collector Box. Clean or wipe away the remaining material
and you are ready to reinstall the Rear Panel.
Tip: For heavy loads, it may be necessary to manually remove part of the load before
dumping to reduce the tipping effort.
