So flipped it over, popped in the four plastic wheel guards onto the bottom base. Each had a hole I had to put a screw in to hold the guard to the base. The screws were so fucking tight and the flathead was smaller than the slits in the screws. So took me forever to screw them in. Only after did I find the right sized screwdriver which would have made it go quicker.
But wait, act now and we will double your offer with the same vac, story part two.
Ok so I had no problem assembling anything else. So I connect the hose, turn it on, and THE DAMNED THING IS BLOWING AIR, NOT SUCKING... I freaked out. Yea yea yea, but only for a second, then I realized the vac had two hose ports, one for blowing and one for sucking.
Why didn’t you get the proper screwdriver BEFORE you started putting the wheels on?
Why do you need a shop vac? Mine is used almost exclusively for sawdust collection in the shop (cyclone-type system).

I have 3.
A mini for in the house. A 12 gallon for the garage and a wet vac for the syrup building....
