How to connect the tubes of a RYOBI 18V HP Garden Vacuum & Sweeper to the motor/handle

Holding the power head angled slightly down at the back, align the square openings of the lower blower tubes and push them partially together.
Now, line up the opening of the power head with the vacuum tube. Then, as you push them together, make sure this locking pin aligns with the hole in the powerhead.
They are properly connected when you hear this tab click into place. To secure the connection, turn the locking pin in a clockwise direction.
Because of the safety feature that prevents the motor from running when the tube is removed, it’s important that the locking pin is screwed in all the way to finger-tight.
At the top of the handle there is a red LED. If this blinks, it means the locking pin hasn’t been fully tightened. If that happens, check that the pin is finger-tight until the LED goes out.
