NOTE! Proper Tool Selection
The tools provided with this drain cleaner along with a
description of their intended use is shown in Figures 2, 3
and 4. 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. A good starting tool is the T-403 Cutter
(Figure 2).
7. 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
To avoid electric shock and electrical
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
insulation or causing nearby objects to ignite.
