Mounting the Backer Board and Wall Bracket
(for wall-mounted systems only)
1. Determine the location of the Backer Board on your wall:

your floor for a 30-gallon drum and 79” above the floor for a 55-gallon drum.
c. Use a level to verify that the Backer Board is level.
The Backer Board can be mounted higher if desired – a longer length of flex
hose can be used between the base of the cyclone and collection drum to take
up any excess height.
