Maintenance Instructions
Before maintaining or adjusting the machine, make sure the machine
switch is turned off and the plug is unplugged from the socket.
Always wear safety glasses and drain cleaner gloves when performing
maintenance work.
Steel Cable
Rinse the cable with clean water after use to prevent corrosion from
various chemicals used to clean the pipes. Periodically apply a rust
inhibitor for maintenance. Once the cable is dry and clean, return it to the
drum and wipe off any excess rust inhibitor with a cloth.
Do not apply rust preventative to a rotating cable. Cloth and hands may get
caught in the cable and rust preventative may spread everywhere.
clean
You can use hot soapy water to clean the machine, but do not let water
enter the motor or other electrical components. Make sure it is completely
dry before plugging it in for use.
lubricating
Lubricate the motor according to its requirements.
Generally speaking, the dredging machine does not require lubrication.
When the cable drum is removed and replaced, the bearings need to be
lubricated.

without the cover.
