Left Hand Operation
Some users of the BP45 may wish to
operate the unit left handed. It is very
important to follow these instructions if you
wish to do so.
1. Loosen the exhaust outlet clamp and
rotate the exhaust outlet approximately
90 degrees counterclockwise as viewed
from the top of the powerhead.
2. Tighten the clamp screw firmly to
prevent the outlet from moving out of
position.
3. Put unit on, and in the operating
position, check exhaust outlet to make
sure exhaust flow is out and to the side
of the operator. Readjust if necessary.
