cause serious injury.
Always check for damages to the cleaning
cable in the drum by pulling the cable out
while the power tool is OFF and
disconnected from a power source before
use. Perform frequent maintenance and
replace damaged, kinked, or broken cables
with identical replacements.
Only use gloves recommended by Global
Industrial for grasping the cleaning cable.
Loose fitting gloves such as cloth, rubber,
latex, or coated gloves can get caught on
the cleaning cable and cause serious injury.
Keep glove-covered hand on the cleaning
cable while the power tool is running.
Keeping gloved hands on the cable allows
for better control and helps prevent the
cable from breaking, twisting, or kinking
which may lead to serious personal injury.
Use goggles, face shields, respirators,
protective clothing, and latex or rubber
gloves under the gloves recommended by
Global Industrial to prevent the spread of
toxic or infectious substances coming from
the drain line. Drains may contain harmful
chemicals, bacteria, and other toxic or
infectious substances that may cause burns
and personal injury.
DO NOT use the power tool without the belt
guard or cable guide. The belt guard helps
reduce the risk of fingers getting caught
between the belt and the pulley. The cable
guide helps reduce the risk of hand injury.
This power tool is designed for a one-
person operation. The operator must be
able to turn the power tool OFF as soon as
the cutter stops rotating to prevent the
cleaning cable from breaking, twisting, and
kinking.
Only use the power tool for the
recommended drain or pipe sizes. Using a
drain cleaner inappropriate for the job can
cause the cleaning cable to break, twist, or
kink, and can cause personal injury.
DO NOT use the power tool at a distance
greater than two feet from the opening.
Distances greater than two feet can cause
the cleaning cable to break, twist, or kink.
DO NOT use the power tool while in
reverse (REV) unless specified in this
manual. Using the power tool while in
reverse can cause damage to the cleaning
cable. The power tool should only be in
reverse (REV) to back the cleaning cable and
cutter out of blockages or obstructions.
Always practice good hygiene before,
during, and after the job. Avoid direct
contact with your skin and eyes. DO NOT
eat or smoke while handling or using the
power tool. Wash hands and other body
parts exposed to drain contents with warm
soapy water. Keeping clean and protected
reduces the risk of health hazards.
DO NOT use this power tool if the operator
or power tool is standing in water. Using the
power tool while on water increases the risk
of electric shock.
Always check for risks of contact with
utilities such as natural gas or electricity
before using the power tool. Look for
utilities, damages to the drain, cross bores,
and other objects the cutter may contact.
Contact with these hazards can cause gas
leaks, fires, explosions, electric shocks, or
other serious injuries.
DO NOT force the power tool. Let the
cutter do the work. Using the appropriate
tool for the job is safer and effective. Cutters
that do not turn while the cleaning cable is
turning can be due to an obstruction.
Further use in this situation can cause
twisting or damage to the cleaning cable and
may result in serious injury.
DO NOT use the power tool if the power
switch does not turn it ON or OFF. A
Power tool which cannot be controlled with
a switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Always disconnect the power tool from any
power source and/or remove batteries, if
applicable, before changing accessories or
storing the power tool. Disconnecting the
power prevents accidental starting of the
power tool.
Keep power tools and accessories out of
reach of children and untrained persons.
Power tools are dangerous when used
without proper training and understanding of
the power tool and these instructions.
Maintain accessories and tools with care.
Ensure there are no damages, misalignment,
binding of moving parts, or any other
condition that may affect the power tool’s
use. Poorly maintained tools can cause
accidents.
Keep cutting accessories and tools sharp
and clean. Sharp and clean tools are easier
to control, more effective, and less likely to
bind.
DO NOT use accessories that are not
provided or recommended by Global
