                Q:I was needing a 90 degree elbow to come off the shop vac so that hose will not sag and crimp hose, and one to fit a tight space I am putting one vac in, and another for the exhaust port to blow upward instead of outward. Do you make such?

                A:  Hello BD101, Thank you for your inquiry about our products. Currently we do not have a 90 degree elbow connector available. We do have a curved connector which is included with the dustopper HD12A and the gutter cleaning kit VT2515. However, those connector are only available for the 2 1/2" diameter size hoses and not sold as a separate part and can only purchase as part of the kit.

                  A:  You can use a flat blade screwdriver to pry up the metal retainer. There are four spaces in the plastic where you can see the metal retainer. Pry up there on each space. Use the screwdriver to push the retainer back down. Not that easy to get it back in.

                    A:  Hello NajaOrangeBrid, Thank you for your inquiry about our products. The bristle brush for the VT1714 are glued on a metal retainer that you can pull out the whole brush out if you want to use the nozzle without the brushes. However, they cannot be put on reverse so that the smaller brush are in front and the taller brushes are on the back. f you have further questions or concerns, you may call Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or email us at info@ridgidvacs.com Thank you, RIDGID Customer Support

                      Q:I have a 1 7/8" shop vac and want a wider floor brush attachment. I see you make a 14" wide one - but seems like that might be for a different size nozzle. Is there an adapter so I could use it on my 1 7/8" unit - or is there a wider brush attachment?
