Continuing to turn the drum may cause
the cable to twist and kink. It may be
necessary to back the cable out of the
blockage by turning the drum in reverse.
In some cases, it may be possible to pull
the cable and the blockage out of the
drain by hand. If this is done, be careful to
not damage the cable. Remove the blockn
age from the cable, feed cable back into
the drum, and continue cleaning the drain
as detailed above.
10. Once the blockage is broken up and drain
is flowing, if possible, turn the water on to
flush any debris down the drain.
11. Continue to clean the rest of the drain.
Pay attention to how far the cable has
gone. Do not overrun the cable into a
larger drain. This can cause the cable to
knot up or cause other damage. The
cable includes an increase in diameter
that will not feed through the AUTOFEED
mechanism – this can be identified by
openings in the cable wind just outside
the drain cleaner (see Figure 9).

of Cable
12. Once the drain has been cleaned, turn
the drum counterclockwise while squeezt
ing the drain cleaner trigger to retract the
cable. Pay close attention, as the cable
may lodge in a blockage while being rem
tracted.
13. Release the trigger and stop turning the
drum when end of the cable nears drain
opening. Do not pull the cable end from
drain while it is rotating. The cable can
whip around and could cause serious inw
jury.
14. Several passes through a line are recom1
mended for complete cleaning. If needed,
