one screw(Item 31), one washer (Item 58) and one lock nut (item 32)

located in the hardware bag. Install rear of handle brace (item 30) to

upper handle vibration mounts using two lock nuts (item 32) also

located in the hardware bag. Hand tighten only.

BLOWING OPERATION

Your Billy Goat QB blower is equipped with an exhaust director to allow the operator to direct the air stream up or

down as required to assist in moving debris. This feature is extremely useful when debris has piled up to the point

that it cannot be blown any farther. The air stream can be directed upward to blow the top of the debris pile over

and allow the operator to continue moving more debris farther.
