NOTE! Proper Tool Selection
A good rule of thumb is to use a tool at least 1"
smaller than the line to be cleaned. The style of the
tool is determined by the nature of the job and is
left up to the operator.
8. Plug the Drain Cleaning Machine into the electrical
outlet, making sure to position the power cord along
the clear path selected earlier. If the power cord
does not reach the outlet, use an extension cord in
good condition.
WARNING
fires, never use an extension cord that is damaged or
does not meet the following requirements:
• The cord has a three-prong plug similar to shown in
Electrical Safety section.
• The cord is rated as "W" or "W-A" if being used out-
doors.
• The cord has sufficient wire thickness (16 AWG below
50'/14 AWG 50' - 100'). If the wire thickness is too
small, the cord may overheat, melting the cord's insu-
lation or causing nearby objects to ignite.
WARNING
all electrical connections dry and off the ground. Do
not touch plug with wet hands. Test the Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) provided with the electric cord
to insure it is operating correctly. When test button is
pushed in, the indicator light should go off. Reactivate by
pushing the reset button in. If indicator light goes on, the
machine is ready to use. If the GFCI does not function
correctly, do not use the machine.
