. - Sound emissions may vary due to your location and
specific use of these tools.

This machine is made to clean
NOTICE
drains. If properly used it will not damage a
drain that is in good condition and properly
designed, constructed and maintained. If the
drain is in poor condition, or has not been
properly designed, constructed and main-
tained, the drain cleaning process may not be
effective or could cause damage to the drain.
The best way to determine the condition of
a drain before cleaning is through visual in-
spection with a camera. Improper use of this
drain cleaning machine can damage the drain
cleaning machine and the drain. This machine
may not clear all blockages.

Pre-Operation Inspection

WARNING
Before each use, inspect your Drain
Cleaning Machine and correct any prob-
lems to reduce the risk of serious injury
from electric shock, twisted or broken
cables, chemical burns, infections and
other causes and prevent Drain Cleaning
Machine damage.
Always wear safety glasses, and other
appropriate protective equipment when
inspecting your Drain Cleaning Machine.
1. Make sure that the drain cleaning ma-
chine is unplugged and inspect the
power cord, Ground Fault Circuit Inter-
rupter (GFCI) and plug for damage. If
the plug has been modified, or if the cord
is damaged, to avoid electrical shock,
do not use the machine until the cord
has been replaced by a qualified repair
person.
2. Clean the machine, including handles
and controls. This aids inspection and
helps prevent the machine or control
from slipping from your grip. Clean and
maintain the machine per the mainte-
nance instructions.
3. Inspect the machine for:
• Proper assembly and completeness.
• Any broken, worn, missing, misaligned
or binding parts.
• Presence and readability of the warning
label (see Figure 3).
