K-39/K-39B Drain Cleaning Machine
4. Depress the forward autofeed lever to feed cable
into drain.
NOTE! Know how long your run of pipe is prior to clean-
ing. Running too much cable can damage your
equipment and the cable.
5. Feed cable into drain until obstruction is encountered
or cable begins to bind up.
6. Release the forward autofeed lever and back the
cable up using the reverse autofeed lever. Then use
the forward lever to again feed the cable to remove the
obstruction a piece at a time. Continue this back and
forth until you have broken through the obstruction.
WARNING
Do not allow tension to build up in the cable. This
will happen if the cutting tool hits a snag and
stops turning but the motor and cable continue
to rotate. Torque builds until the cable suddenly
twists, potentially wrapping around your hand or
arm. This can happen quickly and without warning,
so proceed slowly and carefully as you feed the
cable into the drain. If tool gets hung up in an ob-
struction, refer to Reverse Operating Instructions
in the "Special Procedures" section.
7. Once drain is open and flowing, continue feeding ad-
ditional cable with autofeed to clean rest of drain.
8. To retrieve cable, simply depress the reverse auto-
feed lever.
NOTE! There is no need to reverse the motor direction to
retrieve the cable. Simply depress the reverse
autofeed lever.
9. Completely release trigger just prior to cable or tool
emerging from drain opening. Retrieve by hand as
cable or tool may contain debris and splash work
area.

Loading Cable Into Cable Canister

WARNING
power source before loading cable.
Your K-39 and K-39B is supplied with an inner drum
that fits snugly inside the cable canister that allows easy
change-out of cable. Models that include extra cable as
standard equipment come with an inner drum for each
cable. To utilize the inner drum feature:
1. Pull hand grip forward to the disengaged position.
2. Loosen the four (4) screws that hold the canister front
half to the back half. Loosen each screw 3 (three)
full turns (Figure 9) .
3. Separate the canister front half from the back half
by twisting apart.
4. Lift the inner drum, with cable, out of its cradled fit.
5. Fit the new inner drum into the canister's back half and
draw about a foot of cable out of the inner drum
(Figure 10) .
Figure 9 – Loosen Four (4) Screws From Back Half of
Canister About Three (3) Full Turns
6. Pass the exposed cable head through the front half as-
sembly, align the front half with the back half of the
canister, and rotate drum front to lock into position.
Tighten the screws.
7. For AF versions, you will need to pull up on both the
FORWARD and REVERSE autofeed levers to fit bulb
