mower deck size. If there is no template for your deck
size you can make your own template by marking
around a piece of cardboard held against the edge of
the discharge opening.
Tape the template tothe face of the adapter, locating
template approximately 1/2" from front and 1/4" down
from top of adapter. Keep as close to top as possible.
See figure29. Mark outline of template on face of
adapter usingwhite crayon, nail or scriber. Drill a
starting hole inside the outline, then use a saber saw
or key hole saw to cut out the opening. See figure 29.
1/4" DOWN IMPORTANT: Keep cut-off as close to
the top edge as possible.

Position the adapter over the deck opening, and check
for fit of cutout as shown in figure 30. Trim cutout, if
necessary, to allow tilting of adapter, keeping the fit as
close as possible for best vacuum suction.
NOTE: Make sure adapter clears gauge
wheels on mower deck °.o,o,
Curl on deck may be located outside of
adapter or inside depending on deck
opening design

• Assemble the adapter bracket to the deck using two
5/16" x 1" hex bolts, 5/16" fiat washers and 5/16" lock
nuts. See figure 32.
NOTE: It may be necessary to use extra 5/16" flat
washersto shim under the bracket next to the deck
surface. Ten extra washers have been furnished as
shims, See figure 32.

• Holding the adapter bracket and the deck adapter
together, position the deck adapter on the mower
deck. Keeping the edge of deck adapter as close as
possible to the offset in the adapter bracket, see if the
slot in the adapter bracket can be aligned with one or
two of the deflector holes in your mower deck's
discharge opening. If the bracket can not be located
correctly using existing holes, it will be necessary to
drill one or two 5/16" diameter holes in the deck. See
figure 31.
FIGURE 32
With deck adapter positioned correctly over the
discharge opening, use the adapter bracket as a
template and drill three 9/32" diameter holes in the top
of the deck adapter. See figure 33.
Bolt deck adapter to bracket using three 1/4" x 3/4"
bolts, nylon washers, 1/4" flat washers and 1/4" lock
nuts. Nylon washers should be against the inside of
the deck adapter. See figure 33.

Cut out two templatesand place on deck adapter as
shown in figure 34. Tape smaller one on top and
larger one on the side and bottom. After they are in
place, carefully mark around the templates, then cut
out adapter to obtain correct opening.
Bolt end of mounting strap to the 5/16" bolt onthe
mower deck. The other end of the strap will bolt to a
hole in the deck adapter, which must be drilled.
Position the adapter on the deck, then drill a 5/16"
hole in the bottom of the adapter that will align with
the hole in the strap. Fasten the adapter to the strap
using a 1/4" x 3/4" hex bolt, 1/4" fiat washer, nylon
washer and 1/4" hex nut. See figure 34.
• Tape 46" template onto deck adapter. Mark and then
cut out adapter.
Fasten the angle bracket and the mounting bracket to
the mower deck as shown in figure 35. Use two 5/16"

lock nuts. The bolt heads go on inside of mower
deck.
Drill two 5/16" diameter holes in the deck adapter that
will align with the holes in the angle bracket and the

accidental starting while equipment is unattended or
is being worked on.
CAUTION: The muffler and adjacentareas are holt
HOW TO START YOUR CHIPPER VAC
i_ WARNING: Never start or run the
engine without all covers being properly
attached to the blower housing and cart.
• Check oil and gas in Chipper Vac engine.
• Attach sparkplug wire to spark plug.
• Move choke lever on engine to CHOKE position.
(A warm engine may not require choking.)
• Move throffle control lever on engineto FAST posi-
tion.
• Grasp starterhandle and pull rope out slowlyuntil
engine reaches start of compression cycle (rope will
pull stightly harder at this point). Let the rope rewind
slowly.
• Pull rope with a rapid, continuous, full arm stroke.
Keep a firm grip on starter handle. Let rope rewind
slowly. Do not let starter handle snap back against
starter.
• Repeat instructions in two preceding paragraphs until
enginefires. When engine starts, move choke control
gradually to RUN position.
HOW TO USE YOUR CHIPPER VAC
&CAUTION: Vehicle braking and stability
may be affected withthe addition of an
accessory or an attachment. Be aware of
changing conditions on slopes.
• Inspect the Chipper Vac to make sure all covers (rear
door, hard top boot, elbow, chipper chute with tamper
plug, hose adapter (nozzle), hose and deck adapter
are properly attached.
• Check tires for proper inflation(12 - 14 Ibs).
• Check oil and gas inChipper Vac engine.
• Begin operation at low speed, adjusting forward
speed to match grass height and/or moisture condi-
tion to preventclogging.
• Do not attempt to vacuum up any material other than
vegetation found in a normal yard, such as light
branches, leaves, twigs, etc.
• To empty cart, shut off tractor engine and set
brake.
• Shut off Chipper Vac engine.
• Remove rear door from cart.
CAUTION: To avoid possibleinjury, be
sure thatnoone isnear the cartbefore
releasing the latch.
•Release the latch holding cart down to the tongue by
pulling up on the latch lever. See figure 36.

boot. 1
FIGURE 36
&WARNING: Should your Chipper Vac
become clogged, shut offtractor and
Chipper Vac engines. Before attempting
to unclog, remove wire from spark plug to
prevent accidental starting.

USING THE CHIPPER CHUTE
• Materialsuchas stalksor heavybranchesup to3" in
diameter may befed intothe chipperchute as shown
in figure 37.
• Be sure to wear eye protection and gloves when
feeding material into the chipper chute.
• Use the tamper plug, not your hands, to force material
down through the chipper chute.
For best performance, it is important to keep the
chipper blades sharp. If the compositionof the
material being discharged changes (becomes stnngy,
etc.) or if the rate of discharge slows down consider-
ably, it is likelythat the chipper blades are dull and
need to be sharpened or replaced. Refer to the
Service and Adjustments section, on page 21.
&WARNING: Do not attempt to feed an_i
material larger than 3" in diameter into
the chipper chute. Personal injuryor
damage to the machine could result.
&DANGER: Keep hands out of chipper
chute. Rotating blades in impeller
housing can cause serious injury. Use
the tamper plugto help push material
clownintothe chute.
