Before each use, inspect Drain cleaner and correct any problems.
1. Unplug Drain Cleaner and inspect the power
cord, Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (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 appliance until the cord
has been replaced by a qualified electrician.
2. Inspect the tool for broken, worn, missing,
misaligned or binding parts or any other condition
which may prevent safe and normal operation.
3. Check the Cable for wear and damage.
Replace Cable before use if any section:
a. is worn or flattened,
b. is kinked more than 15°,
c. has spaces between coils (often caused by
running motor in reverse or pulling on cable),
d. shows signs of corrosion.
4. Install the Drain Plug and make
sure it is properly tightened.
5. Make sure that switches and handles move
smoothly between positions and lock in place.
6. Move Lock Ring to unlocked position.
7. Check that all warning labels are present,
firmly attached and readable.
8. Before use, fully retract the Cable with
no more than 2″ of Cable outside of the
appliance. This will the keep the Cable from
“whipping” when the appliance is turned on.
9. Clean any oil, grease or dirt from all equipment
handles and controls.
This helps prevent the
appliance or control from slipping during use.
