This unit is equipped with a static
discharge reduction wire. This wire
helps direct static buildup into the air
stream reducing the felt amount to the
operator.

charge tube swivels freely. If any
binding is present, loosen 102 mm
clamp and pull wire towards engine to
get more slack and recheck for free
