Cyclone Blower Attachments

[Rick in Bend]

Hi,

I am considering purchasing a Cyclone blower to winterize my pool. It has a 1 1/2 inch outlet and they also sell a 3 foot 1 1/2 inch hose. How to I attach this to the pool pump to blow out the lines? I want to avoid sticking it in the pump with a cloth as this really requires 2 people.

Thanks for any suggestions.

if you can get your hands on an old pump strainer lid, i have a great idea for you. cut a hole in it, then add a threaded return jet fitting to it. then you can connect your blower with fittings. this makes it SO much easier to close my pool. when it is in place and connected, you can easily blow out any line you want just by turning different valves.
