Great leaf blower but the zipper is garbage and opens whenever it feels like it.

I bought two supposedly new shoulder strap blower bags and was wondering if those zip tie are from the factory or is it from after a cleaning? Does the zip tie tool have a way to reuse the zip ties?

The replacement zip ties are generic zip ties. I didn't have a 12" zip tie so I used two 8" ties together. The zip tie tool is only for tightening and snipping off the tail.

I had this leaf vacuum bag and it broke like your at exact spot. It is the weakest spot, that bag only last one time. I guess they realized the original bag is too big by the time it fills up the weight will torn the bag. However, it fills up very fast.

Thats basically how the Kirby vacuum bags are attached to the container that attaches to the machine.

Thanks I've got an old hand-me-down Kirby too 🙂

Thanks! How much room did you give up with the new bag?

[@OnTheWorkbench]

While I have you. What were the measurements of the Toolbox. The drawers you open look deep enough. I'm looking for my next Toolbox purchase. Right now I have a 9-drawer Craftsman. That I am filling up thanks to RUclips Lol. I went back through video and it was very clear. Again thank you
