Removing and Replacing the Blower Hoses
Collector Box Hose:
Tools Needed:
Diagonal or wire cutter
Screwdriver or nut driver
1. Disconnect the Collector Box Hose from the
Blower Exit Elbow by loosening the Hose Clamp
with a screwdriver or nut driver (Figure 40) and
separating the hose from the Connector Fitting.
Leave the loose clamp on the fitting.
2. Tilt the trailer bed back for ease of access and cut
the hose support tie strap (Figure 41).
3. Remove the hose from the inlet of the Centrifugal
Separator by grasping the hose and unscrewing it,
clockwise (Figure 42).
4. Install the new hose by turning the hose
counterclockwise into the inlet opening of the
Centrifugal Separator. Turn the hose in until about
4 or 5 of the hose ribs have entered the opening.
5. Lower the Tilt Bed, until locked in place, and slip
the remaining end of the hose onto the connector
fitting on the Blower Exit Elbow.
6. Slide the Hose Clamp up on the hose and tighten.
Note: Make sure that the clamp is on the blower side
of the raised rivet in the connector sleeve to
prevent the hose from slipping off after the
clamp is tightened.
7. Replace the Hose Support Tie Strap with the new
one supplied with the replacement hose (Figure 41).
WARNING! Before performing any maintenance procedure, stop the
engine and disconnect the spark plug wire.
