Any pictures of leafblower

[Gumby1]

:roll: Has anybody got a picture of a leafblower attached to the chimney pipe. Preferably a close up. I know someone posted one at one time but I cant find it. Thanks guys.

Not a picture, but there's a short video here-

I did see the video but would like to see how it attaches.

He wrote that he attached it with duck tape. Others have used PVC adapters.

Here's the simple adaptor I made from a piece of stove pipe and a chunk of 4" pvc... it hooks up to the vacuum side of the blower.

Here's the hook up...

Thanks guys. That clears it up. I guess I was having a brain fart cause I just could not picture it. :red:

Nice pics.

I'm going shopping for a leaf blower soon if I can get the end of my exhaust vent off. Installers siliconed it last year, so far I have been unsuccessful at removing it.

You need a leaf blower with a vacuum attachment. The vacuum attachment is a larger ID then the OD of the exhust pipe.
You slide the vacuum section over the exhuast pipe and duct tape any gap between the exhuast pipe and the vacuum attachment.
Couple of spins of duct tape and fire up the leaf blower.
Make sure the pellet stove door is open just a little so the vacuum isn't that great for the stove.
