How do you use the bag? specifically the grounding rod? I get the idea you get into the bag and plug it in, but how do you use the rod?

You use the rod to insert into the ground. For example, my house is a ranch style home, my bed is near a window and I connect the sheet to the ground cord that runs outside my window that connects to the grounding rod that is inserted into the ground. If you do not have that kind of access you can simply insert the cord into the ground that is located in your nearest electrical outlet. The kit comes with a ground checker to make sure that your electrical outlet is properly configured.

Get inside the bag after plugging the ground wire into a strip extension ...does not go into wire plug goes only in the little hole near where the plug fits

The rod is only necessary if you don´t have a plug near by , you check that the house is grounded with the special plug it comes with , it has 3 lights on it. The rod is to put into the earth and then you bring in the wiring through the window. Not convenient during the wintercable thru the window and the rod in the earth.

You connect the grounding rod to the recovery bag same as electrical ground and on the other end of the long white wire there is a grounding rod that you stick into the earth. That is all it takes. It is a great bag to use for a short period of time or to sleep in for a long period of time. I have had mine for over a year and I love it. I sleep in mine and I have used both types of groundings depending on the location and what is available. I hope you enjoy!!!!

You have the vaccum connections wrong make sure you have the hose connected to a red flap that opens down on the right hand side, the cord sets as you see it here. I have had mine over a year and NEVER had that problem, if connected properly and the BAG is in PLACE you should not have this trouble , if I knew more, such as where is dirt blowing from etc. I suspect the hose is hooked up wrong or the airbag is not installed tightly enough over the lip it goes on. Hope this helps.....

The 3rd hole of your outlet has to be grounded & there is a tester included in the pkg you will receive w/ your sheet. If your outlet is not grounded there is a rod included to set outside the window in the ground w/ an extremely long cord on it to connect your sheet. Very clever and well made. If you test your outlet and find that it is grounded you do not have to use the grounding rod. Just plug the cord into the hole in your outlet and your sheet is now grounded.

the bag is an anti static bag to prevent static discharge winch can do damage to PC memory drives chips etch. once you receive it you simply hook yourself up to an antic static grounding strap open the bag up and install the drive . if you don't know how find a repair person to do it.

You don't need to ground it. It is power in/power out. You ground what ever you are powering thru the block.

The book said you need a ground rod. I did run it with out the ground when setting it up and test fire. Worked well but i hooked it up to a ground. Think about it. Fuel supply in and not grounding it? Unless you wish to see a fire i would do as the owners book said ground this bad boy

Barry D. not sure we have just wrote to Worx about our bag ripping after 2 times so we shall see how they respond. Still love the idea we can vacuum up the leaves it has made life easier being electric. We see our neighbor with a Gas Blower & having to stop quite a bit to put more Gas in. Love the Trash Can attachment better then the smaller bag but will let you know what Worx says.

Sorry, but the bag is at the golf club. I'll have to bring it home and test it. Maybe someone else can help in the mean time.

I believe you just remove the bag and place the blower attachment where the bag connects

I didn't have any problems with the skeg either. And I agree if you epoxy it, that will probably make it much harder to fit into the bag. If you afraid of losing it, try to secure it with cord/rope (making small hole in the skeg).

The nylon/canvas bag that comes with the unit is perfect - I would contact Black and Decker on the fact yours did not have one. They have been great getting missing items to me in the past. Sorry for that inconvenience.

You would need to remove the blower tube from the unit, install the bag in its place. Open the intake cover and install the vacuum tube in position there. That's all.

You tire the bag on and hook up to water pressure. My pool has a hose bibb so I'm not adding water to the pool. If you don't have that you can connect to a water hose.

Unfortunately we were not able to use this bag. I bought it for my husband for Christmas, it was not long enough to fit his rods. I believe that only fly fishing or other rods that break down into three sections will work with it. Hope this helps.

I wish I could help. Im having the exact same problem. We recently moved and I tried to pack it back on the bag it came in and ended up bending the wires. Good luck though!

Hi there! I NEVER use the multi purpose bag on its own, unless Im trying to get bigger debris , like leaves..the micro fiber bags can be inserted into the all purpose bag to trap the smallest of small particles ...I have a bag from a previous unit that was a small particle bag..that is what I use all of the time!! And, don't forget to recharge the battery every couple of weeks during the winter,when not in use, or else you will need to buy a new unit come spring. Found that out the hard way!!! Once the battery is drained, you can not recharge it. Hope this helps!
