Tool Set Up
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:
Turn the Rotation Switch of the tool to its "OFF" position and unplug the
tool from its electrical outlet before assembling or making any adjustments to
the tool.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY:
DO NOT OPERATE WITH ANY GUARD DISABLED, DAMAGED, OR
REMOVED.
Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles, heavy-duty LEATHER work gloves,
and other appropriate protective equipment when setting up your Drain
Cleaner. For extra protection from chemicals and bacteria on the machine
and in the work area, we recommend wearing latex, rubber or other liquid barrier
gloves under the heavy-duty work gloves. Before use, inspect gloves to be sure
they are free of defects or loose sections that could be caught in the Drain
Cleaner. Rubber soled, non-slip shoes can help prevent slipping and electric
shock, especially on wet surfaces.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK,
TWISTED/BROKEN CABLES, CHEMICAL BURNS, INFECTIONS AND
OTHER CAUSES AND PREVENT DRAIN CLEANER DAMAGE:
Before each use, inspect Drain Cleaner and correct any problems.
1. Once the Drain Cleaner is assembled, check the device and cutters for
any signs of wear and damage. If necessary, replace worn or damaged
parts prior to using the drain cleaning machine. Dull or damaged cutting
tools can lead to binding, cable breakage, and slow the drain cleaning.
2. Verify Drain Cleaner is unplugged and inspect the power cord, Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) and plug for damage. If the plug has been
modified, is missing the grounding prong or if the cord is damaged, to avoid
electrical shock, do not use the machine until the cord has been replaced by
a qualified electrician.
