• This listing is for the upper tube only unless otherwise specified. Sweeper nozzles, lower tubes, tube kits, clamps, fasteners, blower housings, fans, and additional components are sold separately.
• Inspect the blower outlet, tube clamps, sweeper nozzle, tube connections, and surrounding housing during installation. Replace cracked, loose, worn, or damaged components as needed to help maintain secure tube attachment and properly directed blower airflow.
