safety instructions and information.
8. If necessary, remove fixture (toilet, sink, etc.) to allow access to the
drain. Do not feed the cable through a fixture. This could damage the
Drain Cleaner and the fixture.
9. Determine the correct drain cleaning cable size for the drain cleaning
job. See Cable/Pipe Size chart below.
Cable Size
1/2 Inch
3/8 Inch
3/4 Inch
10. If needed, place protective covers over the work area floor. Cleaning
the clogged drain can be a messy operation.
11. Make sure that the Drain Cleaner handle is locked into the upright
position for transport. If the Drain Cleaner needs to be lifted, use proper
lifting techniques or seek assistance if needed. Use caution when moving
equipment up and down stairs. Wear appropriate footwear to help prevent
slipping on floor.
12. Set the Drain Cleaner so that the drum opening is within 2 feet of the
drain access. The greater the distance from the drain access, the higher
the risk of the cable twisting or kinking.
13. If the machine cannot be placed with the drum opening within 2'of
the drain access, use appropriate-sized pipes and fittings to extend the
drain access back to within 2' of the drum opening. Improper cable
support can allow the cable to kink and twist and can damage the cable or
injure the operator.
14. If needed, set up barriers to keep bystanders away from the Drain
Cleaner and work area during operation.
15. Select proper cutting tool. (See Cutting Tool Accessories ).
16. Install the tool to the end of the cable. Slide the base of the Cutter
Tool into the slot at the end of the cable. Fasten together using a
screwdriver.
17. Position the Foot Switch for easy accessibility. You must be able to
hold and control the cable, control the Foot Switch, and reach the Rotation
Switch.
