
ElectricSafety
1.ThemachineisequippedwithaGroundFaultCircuit
Interrupter(GFCI),whichprotectsyouagainstshockifshort
circuitshouldoccur.Checkthatthereceptacleisproperly
grounded.TesttheGFCIbeforeeachuse.Thetestingprocedure
isgivenbelow:

a) Plugmachineintoareceptaclewiththemachine‐specified
voltage.
b) Pushthetestbutton.Indicatorlightwillgooutandpower
tomachinewillcutoff.
Iflightdoesnotgooutwhenthetest
buttonispushed,equipmentshouldnotbeuseduntil
properrepairsorreplacementtotheGFCIaremade.
c) Torestorepoweraftertest,pushresetbutton.
Withtheresetbuttonuntouched,ifthemachinedoesnotstart,or
stopswhilerunning,orifyouexperienceamildshock,donotusethemachine!Have
itrepairedorreplacedbyalicensedtechnician.
Whenusinganextensioncord,theGFCIonthedraincleanerdoesnot
protecttheextensioncord.IftheoutletisnotGFCIprotected,itisadvisabletousea
plugintypeGFCIbetweentheoutletandtheextensioncordtoreducetheriskof
shockifthereisafaultintheextensioncord.

2.Whenworkingwiththemachineoutside,useaspeciallydesignedoutdoorextensioncord.
Thiskindofcordreducestheriskofelectricshock.Useonlythree‐wireextensioncords
whichhavethree‐prongedgroundingplugsandthree‐polereceptacleswhichacceptthe
tool’splug.Useofotherextensioncordswillnotgroundthetoolandincreasetheriskof
electricshock.Insufficientconductorsizewillcauseexcessivevoltagedropandlossof
power.Whenusingextensioncords,aGFCImustbeusedincircuitboxesoroutlet
receptacles.ExtensioncordswithoutaGFCIcanalsocauseelectricshock.

OperationwithCableFeeder(Optional)

1. Beginbypullingthecablefromthedrumandslidingitat
leastonefootintothedrain,sothattheendofthecable
willnotcomeoutofthedrainandwhiparoundwhenthe
machineisstarted.
2. TightentheknobonthetopoftheCableFeederuntilthe
CableFeederrollertouchesthecable.Thenmakeone
moreturnontheknob.
Donotovertightensincethiscouldcause
excesscablewear.TheCableFeederisdesignedforuse
with1/2"and3/8"cablesonly.
3. TheCableFeederLevercontrolsthefeedingrateand
feedingdirectionofthecable.HoldtheleveruptotheFposition(theletterFismarkedon
theFeedActuator,meaningFeedingForward)topullthecableoutofthedrumandfeedit
forwardintothedrain.ThestrongertheleverispusheduptotheFside,thefasterthecable
willfeed.HoldtheleverdowntoRposition(theletterRismarkedontheFeedActuator,
meaningRetractingBack)toretractthecablefromthedrainandfeeditbackintothedrum.
WhentheleverisheldintheMiddlePosition,thecablewillneithergoforwardor
backward,butrotatewiththedrum.
4. SettheRotationSwitch(seefigureinPage5)attheFposition.Grabtheguidetubeorcable
withaglovedhand,andplaceyourotherhandontheCableFeederLever,whichshouldbe

5. FeedthecableintothedrainlinebyholdingtheCableFeederLeveruptoFsidewithafirm,
evenpressure.Whentheresistanceismet,adjustthefeedingratebyadjustingtheforce
ontheCableFeederLever.Donotforcethecable–letthecutterdothework.
Largeforcewillnotgetthejobdoneanyfasterandthecablemightbecome
damaged.
6. Donotleavetoomuchslackonthecable.Itwillcausewhipping.Ifthecablestartstobend
orbuilduptoomuchtwist,relievethetwistbyturningtheDruminthereversedirectionby
hand.Pushanyexcesscablebackintothedrumandthencontinue.
YouMUSTturntheRotationSwitchtoOFFandtakeyourfeetawayfrom
theFootSwitch.Failingtodothismaycauseaccidentalstartingandinjury.
7. Ifyouhavetroublegettingaroundatightbend,trytorunthemachineinstantlyinREV
rotationwhileapplyingsteadypressure.
Donotdothisformorethanafewsecondsatatimesincethiscouldcause
cabletanglinginthedrumorkinking.
8. Ifyoustillcannotpassthebend,thecablesizeisprobablytoolarge.Changeittoa3/8”
diametercable.
9. Whenthecablereachesthestoppage,puttheCableFeederLeverinMiddlePositionfirst.
Thenpushthecableforwardbyhandwithamildforce.DonotusetheCableFeeder.Let
thecutterchewthestoppageasitgoes.Thisslowforwardmovementwillreducestresson
thecablewhiledoingamorethoroughcleaningjob.Abackandforthactionoftenworks
best.
Hint:It’softenhelpfultohaveasmallstreamofwaterrunninginthelinetowashthe
cuttingsawaywhilethemachineisinoperation.
10. Becarefulnottoletthecuttergetcaughtinthestoppageasyouworkthroughit.Thiscan
causecablekinkingandbreaking.Whenyoufeelthecablestarttwistinginyourhands,stop
themachineandpullthecablebackalittletofreethecutterfromtheobstruction.Then
repeattheslowforwardmotion.Remember,nocuttingtakesplacewhenthebladestops
turning.
11. Afterthelineisopened,retrievethecablefromthedrainandreturnittothedrumwiththe
RotationSwitchbeingsettoFORpositionwhiletheCableFeederLeverbeinghelddownat
