MACHINE INSPECTION
WARNING: To prevent serious injury, in-
spect your drain cleaning machine. The follow-
ing inspection procedures should be performed
before each use.
1. Make sure the drain cleaning machine is un-
plugged and the directional switch is set to the
off position.
2. Inspect the power cord, ground fault circuit
interrupter and plug for damage. If the plug
has been modified, is missing the grounding
prong or if the cord is damaged, do not use
the drain cleaning machine until the cord has
been replaced.
3. Inspect the drain cleaning machine for any
broken, missing, misaligned or binding parts as
well as any other conditions which may affect
the safe and normal operation of the machine.
If any of these conditions are present, do not
use the drain cleaning machine until any prob-
lem has been repaired.
4. Lubricate the drain cleaning machine, if nec-
essary, according to the maintenance instruc-
tions.
5. Use tools and accessories that are designed
for your drain cleaner and meet the needs of
your application. The correct tools and acces-
sories allow you to do the job successfully and
safely. Accessories suitable for use with other
equipment may be hazardous when used with
this drain cleaner.
6. Clean any oil, grease or dirt from all equip-
ment handles and controls. This reduces the
risk of injury due to a tool or control slipping
from your grip.
7. Inspect the cutting edges of your tools. If
necessary, have them sharpened or replaced
prior to using the drain cleaning machine. Dull
or damaged cutting tools can lead to binding
and cable breakage.
8. Inspect cables and couplings for wear and
damage. Cables should be replaced when they
become severely worn or corroded. A worn
cable can be identified when the outside coils
become flat.
WARNING: Do not place machine in water.
Water entering the motor can result in electri-
cal shock. To prevent serious injury, proper set-
up of the machine and work area is required.
The following procedures should be followed
to set-up the machine:

SET-UP FOR 5/8" SECTIONAL CABLE
1. Check work area for:
• Adequate lighting
• Grounded electrical outlet
• Clear path to the electrical outlet that does
not contain any sources of heat or oil, sharp
edges or moving parts that may damage elec-
trical cord.
• Dry place for machine and operator. Do not
use the machine while standing in water.
• Flammable liquids, vapors or dust that may
ignite.
2. Position the Drain Cleaning Machine within
2 ft (60 cm) of drain inlet. Greater distance can
result in cable twisting or kinking.
3. Make sure FOR/OFF/REV switch is in the OFF
position.
4. Attach the rear
guide hose by lifting
up the lock pinand
sliding guide hose
adapter onto the
housing untilit locks
into place.
NOTE: Do not use machine without rear guide-
hose attached. Prevents cable whipping and
possible entanglement.
5. Insert first cable into front of machine (fe-
male end first)and push through guide hose
until approximately onefoot remains out the
front of the machine.
NOTE: Never couple more than one cable at
atime. Cable will extend behind rear guide tube.
6. Select and install the proper tool to the end
of the cable. The T-Slot Coupler allows the
tool to be snapped into the cable coupler. To
remove tool, use the pin key to depress the
plunger and slide the coupling apart.
7. Plug the Drain Cleaning Machine into the
electrical outlet, making sure to position the
power cord along the clear path selected earli-
er. If the power cord does not reach the outlet,
use an extension cord in good condition.
SET-UP FOR 5/16" OR 3/8" CABLE ADAPTERS
1. Make sure FOR/OFF/REV switch is in the OFF
position.
2. Pull ten inches of cable from cable adapter
and slide into back of DE640.
