Does anyone have a leaf vac attachment for their Bearcat 5540?

Or, more importantly has anyone fabricated one?

When I look at the kit online, it looks like you just fit a lid over the shredder chute. I'm wondering where the vacuum comes from. Surely the flywheel spinning wouldn't produce much, if any suction with the discharge palte and the chipper feed chute wide open.

It seems that there would need to be an auxilliary blower unit on top of the shredder cover, but I've not been able to find mention of it.

Any info is appreciated.

I'm interested in this topic also. I can't imagine the shredder drum creating that much vaccum either.

Just wanted to bump this. I'm surprised no one has any knowledge about this.
