K-1500A/B & K-1500SP Drain Cleaning
Machines are for cleaning 2" through 10" lines. These ma-
chines are driven by induction motors that have a grounded
electrical system. An integral Ground Fault Interrupter
(GFCI) is built into the line cord. A toggle or rotary switch pro-
vides FORWARD/OFF/REVERSE control of the motor.
Machines are designed to use sectional-type cable that
has a quick coupling system for disconnecting tools. The
cable is manually fed in and out of the machine and rotates
at a cable speed of 600 to 700 RPM. The rotation of the
cable is controlled by a clutch handle. The cable stops in-
stantly when the clutch handle is released.
K-1500 machines come equipped to run 1
clean 3" – 10" lines through 200' – the 1500SP through
300'. They can be easily adapted to use 7/8" cable to clean
2" – 4" lines.

K-1500A/B, & K-1500SP Drain Cleaning Machines
- Sound emissions may vary due to your location and specific use of these tools.
- Daily exposure levels for sound need to be evaluated for each application and ap-
propriate safety measures taken when needed. Evaluation of exposure levels
should consider the time a tool is switched off and not in use. This may signifi-
cantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
