PREPERATION FOR USING MACHINE
Ø CAUTION: Before making any adjustments, ensure the main machine switch is in the “O” off position.
Ø CAUTION: Before starting your job, it is vital to be aware of the distance from the sewer inlet pipe to the
main sewer pipe or septic tank. Overrunning the cable into large spaces can cause cable to form “knots”
and prevent the cable from being returned through the smaller pipe line. Avoid going into main sewer lines
farther than 10’. Avoid going into sewer tanks more than 3’.
Ø Clutch operations
o To rotationally engage the clutch, pull the clutch handle down (towards the ground). The user
must hold the handle in the down position to keep the clutch rotating. To disengage the clutch,
allow the clutch handle to move to the up position (towards the ceiling).
o NOTE: Sectional drain cleaners do not spin the drain cleaner cable in/out (towards/away) from the
drain clog. Sections of the cable must be individually connected and manually fed to the point of
the clog. When the drain cleaner end reaches the point of the clog, the user engages the clutch
to spin the cutter in a forward of reverse rotation.
§ CAUTION: Keep hands and fingers away from the clutch jaws and cutting pieces when
the machine is plugged into a power source. Closing clutch jaws can cause serious
damage to bodily parts.
Ø Main On/Off Switch Operations
o “O” indicates “off” position.
o “L” indicates counter-clockwise rotation.
o “R” indicates clockwise rotation.
