Drain Cleaning Machine
When
a
new
belt
is
installed,
the
torque
may
be
too
high,
and
the
Thumb
Wheel
needs
to
be
adjusted
to
decrease
the
belt
tension.
When
excessive
belt
slippage
happens,
the
torque
may
be
too
low,
and
the
Thumb
Wheel
needs
to
be
adjusted
to
increase
the
belt
tension.
Perform
the
following
steps
to
adjust
the
Thumb
Wheel.
NEVER
let
the
machine
run
with
high
tension
in
order
to
protect
the
cable
from
being
damaged.
1.
Screw
down
the
Thumb
Wheel
for
3
complete
turns
to
reduce
the
tension
considerably.
2.
Increase
the
tension
a
bit
at
a
time
while
trying
to
run
the
machine
to
see
if
the
tension
is
enough.
3.
Add
a
bit
more
when
needed.

Cleaning
When
needed,
the
machine
can
be
cleaned
with
hot,
soapy
water
and/or
disinfectants.
Do
not
allow
water
to
enter
motor
or
other
electrical
components.
Make
sure
unit
is
completely
dry
before
use.
Cable
To
obtain
maximum
service
from
your
cables,
be
sure
that
after
each
use
they
are
cleaned
with
water,
air
dried,
and
well
coated
with
proper
lubrication
oil
(such
as
SAE
10W
‐
30).
This
not
only
provides
running
lubrication
but
greatly
extends
the
life
of
the
cables
as
well.
You
can
periodically
pour
oil
directly
into
the
drum.
As
the
drum
turns,
the
cables
get
complete
lubrication.
You
can
also
wipe
the
lubrication
oil
on
the
cable
with
a
cloth.
If
a
cable
loops
over
itself
in
the
drum,
it
will
not
feed
properly.
Remove
and
reload
the
cable
by
hand
to
restore
function.
If
the
cable
kinks,
it
is
the
evidence
of
abuse
and
the
results
from
the
use
of
too
much
pressure
or
the
use
of
a
wrong
size
cable
for
the
line.
Cable
Feeder
(Optional)
Keep
Cable
Feeder
free
of
excessive
soil
and
grit.
It
is
recommended
that
the
Cable
Feeder
be
flushed
with
fresh
water
using
a
hose
followed
by
air
‐
drying
the
unit
and
then
a
lubrication
oil
of
the
moving
parts.
No
disassembly
is
normally
required.
If
dirt
is
hard
enough
to
stop
the
roller’s
rotation
and
flushing
it
with
water
does
not
restore
its
function,
then
disassembling
the
Cable
Feeder
is
necessary.
