Put the switch in the center off position. That allows you to press the big black button in the front and take the vacuum attachment off. Replace the vacuum with the blower attachment and you should them be able to blow rather than vacuum.

There should be an avenue for you to relocate the blower pipe. Fire the blower up and find the intake. Then reexamine the intake to see if there is a way to open a compartment.

I need to see the manual

Depending on your model and when it was made, there is a safety recall on these blowers

Where do I attach the bag for the vacuum?

When the machine is converted to vacuum mode, the collection bag will go on the machine where the blower tube (long part) is connected for blowing mode.

Where do i switch theLEAF HOG FROM VACUUM TO BLOWER

Remove vaccuum tube. Allow the access door for the vacuum tube to shut all the way. Attatch the blower tube where you had the collection back for the vaccuum attatched. That is it.

I can not get the Leaf Hog to swtich from vacumn to blower. Any suggestions?

it does not "switch"

The air intake becomes the vacuum with an attachment. The "blower tube" is then the vacuum exhaust.

the motor does not change directions.

Zipper is really stuck

sometimes dirt and debree can get stuck in there, try saturating it with a strong penetrating oil like PB Blaster, available at your local auto parts store, and let it soak in for about an hour and use a pair of pliers to get a good grip.
