INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
WARNING! Make sure the Power Switch of the Drain Cleaner is in its “OFF” position and that the tool is unplugged from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
General
1.Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Drain Cleaner. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical wiring, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Do not use damaged equipment.
2.Periodically recheck all nuts, bolts, and screws for tightness.
3.After each use, clean the Drain Cleaner components with a wet, clean cloth. Wipe dry when clean.
4.Always keep Cable (39a) well oiled by pouring oil directly into the Drum (38a). Then push the Motor Direction Switch (5) to the NORMAL position. The Drum will rotate. Do this until the entire Cable is lubricated. Lubricate all other moving parts adequately to protect against corrosion, sand, grit, and other abrasive material.
5.Store unit in a clean and dry location. Cover unit with a cloth cover.
Auto Feed Maintenance
Keep the auto feed mechanism free of excessive soil and grit. It is recommended that it be flushed with fresh water, followed by a light oiling of the moving parts. No disassembly is normally required. Failure to feed during operation can usually be traced to the build up of soil and grit. Over time, dirt can harden enough to stop roller rotation. Flushing with water, followed by liberal oiling can usually restore function. If disassembly is required, proceed as follows:
1.Remove the two bolts that hold the Front Cap
2.Slide the front Cap out of the Case and inspect and clean the roller as described above.
3.Remove the four bolts that hold the End Cap
4.Slide the End Cap out of the Case and inspect and clean the three guide rollers as described above.
5.While the Case is open, thoroughly clean and oil all parts and then reassemble in reverse order.
