A:  Correct 

A:  Williamn, You are correct on the crevice tool. I purchased the car care kit, and it provides everything you could imagine for getting nooks and crannies and crevices… this combined kit of vacuum and car care kit, has driven me to actually take care of, and care for my vacuum. It’s one of the best purchases I’ve made, and I’m a really demanding consumer.  Go to your Home Depot store and take a look at the car care kit (only by name) and you’ll see all the attachments and step downs that you need to get the best cleaning tools possible.  I hope this helps. You will definitely not regret your purchase.

A:  Mine just popped in - no screws needed.

A:  Hello Mike, Thank you for your inquiry about our products. We offer 2-1/2 in. Gutter Cleaning Accessory Kit for RIDGID Wet/Dry Shop Vacuums.

A:  Hello RAMBO, Thank you for your inquiry about our products. The HD09001 have a CFM rating of 76. With that CFM rating it is capable of picking up acorn nuts. However, the hose that comes with the vacuum is 1 7/8" diameter, If the acorn nuts you are picking are big it may cause clogs on the hose of the vacuum. We would recommend to pick up a bigger size vacuum such as the 12 gallon, it already comes with a higher CFM rating plus a bigger diameter hose which is 2 1/2" diameter, with the bigger hose it will minimize the chance of the nuts clogging the hose. If you have additional questions you may call our Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or send us an email at info@ridgidvacs.com and we'll be glad to assist you.
