DUMPING THE LEAF BOX:
Your Giant-Vac Model 1695 Trail-Vac has a 2 cubic yard* self-dumping leaf box. When
the box is full, simply back the unit up to the desired dumping area **, loosen the two
handle nuts on either side of the back door, swing the two pivot lock bolts out of the way,
lift the spring-loaded back door, and the debris will slide out. If necessary, pull the unit
forward a few feet to ensure complete emptying of the box. Be sure to close and lock
the door before resuming operation.

Before backing up, always make a visual assessment of the area behind the
Trail-Vac, making sure there are no people (especially children) or objects behind
the machine that could be backed into or run over. Failure to do so could result in
serious injury, as well as severe machine and/or property damage.
