Make Sure This is The Right Tool

For Your Job

• This cable drum machine is intended for use in

sinks, tubs, oor drains and roof stacks with 3/4

inch to 3 inch diameter lines.

• This machine is NOT designed to clear tree roots

from pipes – attempting to clear tree roots can result

in injury and will damage the machine/cable, in turn

voiding the warranty. For clearing root disturbances,

utilize a larger drain cleaning machine such as the

BrassCraft 650 series.

• Do not modify this product or use it for anything

other than its intended purpose. Only use equipment

suggested by the manufacturer. Alterations or other

improper use could result in personal injury or damage

to the product also nullifying the product warranty.

Personal Protection Equipment

• Wear snug tting leather gloves when operating this

machine. Never grasp the rotating cable with anything

else, including a rag or non-leather gloves.

• Wear safety glasses or eye protection

• Exercise cleanliness. Use hot soapy water to clean

hands and other body parts that may have been

exposed to drain cleaning contents. To reduce the risk

of contamination and illness, do not eat or smoke while

cleaning drain.

Personal safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a power tool. Do

not use a power tool while you are tired or under the

inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment

of inattention while operating power tools

may result in serious personal injury.

• Use personal protective equipment.

SAFETY SYMBOLS &

SIGNAL WORD CABLE DRUM MACHINE

SAFETY

www.brasscraft.com

• Do not operate machine with motor in

reverse.

Reverse is only used when the cable is stuck or

overstressed. Running the machine in reverse could result

in possible kinked or stressed cable and personal injury.

• Never retract the cable from the inlet

while drum is spinning. The cable could whip around

and cause serious personal injury or death.

Work area safety

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark

areas invite accidents.

• Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of ammable

liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a

power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never

modify the plug in any way. Do not use any

adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.

Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk

of electric shock.

• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded

surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric

shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a power tool increases the risk of

electric shock.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for

carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or

moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase

the risk of electric shock.

• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Using a cord

suitable for outdoors reduces the risk of electric shock.

• If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter

(GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the

risk of electric shock.

Power tool use and care

• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power

tool for your application. The correct power tool will

do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was

designed.

• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn

it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled

with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

WARNING indicates a hazardous

situation that, if not avoided, could result in death or

serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

• The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your

mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery operated

(cordless) power tool.

• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch

is in the off-position before connecting to power

source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying

the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the

switch or energizing power tools that have the switch

on invites accidents.

• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before

turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left

attached to a rotating part of the power tool may

result in personal injury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance

at all times. This enables better control of the power

tool in unexpected situations.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away

from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair

can be caught in moving parts.

• If devices are provided for the connection of dust

extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are

connected and properly used. Use of dust collection

can reduce dust-related hazards.

• When lifting heavy objects, always lift with your

knees, never with your back. Consider using two-

people when lift is heavy and/or awkward.

Proper Machine Operation

• Cleaning chemicals can be present in clogged

drains. If you have previously used chemicals or are

unsure, take care to avoid contact with the cable or

debris found in the drain.

• Machine is designed to be used by one

person only. The operator must control both the cable

and the foot switch. Should the cutter stop rotating,

the operator must be able to quickly stop the motor.

This helps to prevent kinking and breaking of the cable

which could cause crushing or striking injuries.

• Do not allow the cable to twist, kink

or build up tension. Do not let the cable endure

overstressed situations. This could potentially result in

crushing and/or striking injuries and unpredicted cable

reactions. If the cable starts to become overstressed,

immediately turn the machine off by taking your foot off

the switch and rotate the cable in the opposite direction

until the twist or buckle has been removed.

• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or

the battery pack from the power tool before making

any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing

power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce

the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children

and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power

tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained

users.

• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any

other condition that may affect the power tool’s

operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired

before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly

maintained power tools.

• Use the power tool in accordance with these

instructions, taking into account the working

conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the

power tool for operations different than those intended

could result in a hazardous situation.

Service

• Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair

person using only identical replacement parts. This will

ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

MACHINE DESCRIPTION

Be sure your personal protective equipment (See Personal

Protection Equipment Section) is in good condition. Before

use, ensure gloves are not damaged.

Prepare the Work Area

• Make sure the work area has satisfactory lighting.

• Do not work in areas that have combustible liquids,

dust or vapors that may ignite. The drain machine is

not explosion resistant and can create sparks.

• Do not work in any area until all the amable

sources have been identied and corrected.

• Never place the machine in water. If necessary,

remove the water from the work area prior to use.

• Be sure the electrical outlet is properly grounded. If

unsure,

have the outlet inspected by a licensed electrician.

• Make sure the path for the power machine

transportation and power cord are clear of

obstructions. Any potential sources of damage to the

power cord or machine should be relocated prior to use.

• Keep bystanders and children away from the work area.

• Drain cleaning can be messy. If necessary, use

protective covers.

Inspect and Prepare the Drain

• Determine if cleaning chemicals have been used in

the drain.

If chemicals are present, contact the chemical

manufacturer to understand the safety measures that are

necessary to work around those substances.

• Properly inspect the drain.

Determine the best access

point to the drain and the size of the drain. If possible,

determine the distance to the blockage or the nature of

the clog. If necessary, remove the xture (toilet, sink, etc.)

to allow access to the drain. (See diagram, next page.)

grounded outlet. To test the GFCI provided, push the

test button in, the indicator light should go off. Restart

by pushing the reset button in. If the indicator light goes

on, the GFCI is functioning properly. If it is not working

properly, unplug the cord and do not use the machine

untill it has been correctly xed.

• Move the FOR/OFF/REV switch to the FOR position.

Slowly press the foot switch and note the direction of

rotation of the drum. If the foot switch does not rotate

the drum, do not use this machine until it is properly

inspected. The drum should rotate counter clockwise

when viewing from the front of the machine.

• Move the switch to the REV position to ensure that

the drum is rotating clockwise, repeating the previ-

ous steps to ensure that the machine is working

properly. If the rotation is not correct, do not operate

this machine.

Inspect and Prepare the Machine

• Verify machine and components are in place.

• Inspect your drain cleaning gloves to ensure they

are in good condition with no holes, tears or loose

sections. It is critical to have the proper gloves to

protect your hands from the rotating cable.

• Make sure the drain cleaning machine is unplugged

and inspect the Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter,

plug and power cord for any damage. If the plug has

been modied or is missing any components, do not

use the machine. It will need to be repaired by a quali-

ed person prior to use.

• Before use, clean any grease, dirt or oil off the

equipment controls and handles. This will reduce the

risk of the machine or controls slipping from your grip.

• Conrm that the machine is accurately assembled.

Look for any parts that are not in a condition which

would prevent safe and normal operation. Rotate the

drum and make sure that it smoothly rotates. If any

problems are found, or if you are unsure, do not use the

machine until it has been properly repaired.

• Make sure the warning label on the motor is intact

and readable. Do not operate the machine without the

warning label.

• Clean any debris from the tools and cable while

inspecting the cable for any wear and damage.

Check for ats on the outside of the cable, if any

portion looks as though it is not round, the cable should

be replaced. Inspect the cable for any kinks, space

between the coils or excessive corrosion. These can

weaken the cable during use.

• Inspect the cutting tool for any damage or wear. If

damage or wear is found, the tools need to be replaced.

• Using dry hands, plug the cord into a correctly

If your machine is not properly operating, do not use it

until the machine is properly repaired.

Do not allow the cable to twist, kink, buckle, become

overstressed or stuck. If the cable begins to get stuck

or buckle/ twist, immediately remove your foot from

the foot switch while rmly holding the cable with

both hands. Allow the machine to come to a complete

stop and the tension to release from the cable. Turn

the machine off and immediately manually rotate the

cable in the opposite direction until the twist or buckle

has been removed.

If the cable is stuck in the clog, turn the machine into

the OFF position, then to REV and slowly press the foot

switch. Let the machine run slowly in reverse,

stopping the motor often to check if the cutter has

become released by manually retrieving the cable into

the drum. ONLY run the motor in REV if the cutter has

become caught. If the cable begins to get stuck or

buckle/kink/ twist, immediately remove your foot from

the foot switch while rmly holding the cable with

both hands. Allow the machine to come to a complete

stop and the tension to release from the cable. Turn

the machine off and immediately manually rotate the

cable in the opposite direction until the twist or buckle

has been removed.

Do not continue to force cable into the

drain pipe. This can cause the cable

to twist, buckle, kink or break.

3. Tighten chuck.

4. Place the motor in the forward (FOR) position and

slowly depress the footswitch to start the machine.

The drum will begin to turn as will the cable.

5. While depressing the foot switch, apply slight pressure

to the top of the arch of cable with both gloved hands.

If your cutter is at an elbow, this will help the cutter

“jump” the elbow, freeing it to continue through the

drain. If your cutter is at the clog, the cable will not

feed further.

6. Continue steps 2-5 until you have reached your clog.

7. Let the cutter do the work. Do not use too much force.

Do not continue to force cable into the drain pipe. This

can cause the cable to twist, buckle, kink or break.

Continue applying pressure to the arch of the cable until

the cutter has cleared past the clog.

Do not allow the cable to twist, kink, and buckle,

become overstressed or stuck. If the cable begins to

get stuck or buckle/ twist, immediately remove your

foot from the foot switch while rmly holding the cable

with both hands. Allow the machine to come to a com-

plete stop and the tension to release from the cable.

Turn the machine off and immediately manually rotate

the cable in the opposite direction until the twist or

buckle has been removed. If the cutter is stuck in the

clog, turn the machine into the OFF position, then to

REV and slowly press the foot switch. Let the machine

run slowly in reverse, stopping the motor often to

check if the cutter has released by manually retrieving

the cable into the drum. ONLY run the motor in REV if

the cutter has become caught. If the cable begins to

get stuck or buckle/kink/ twist, immediately remove

your foot from the foot switch while rmly holding the

cable with both hands. Allow the machine to come to

a complete stop and the tension to release from the

cable. Turn the machine off and immediately manually

rotate the cable in the opposite direction until the twist

or buckle has been removed.

If drum continues to rotate under power when the

cable/ cutter is stuck, the cable can twist, buckle,

kink or break.

Retrieving the cable

8. Move the motor switch to the OFF position. Do not

operate the motor in reverse.

9. Unplug the power cord.

10. Loosen the chuck and hand feed all the cable

back into the drum, cleaning in cold water then oiling

the cable as you go. It is recommended that the cable

is continuously ushed through with clean water and

oiled as it is being retrieved from the pipe before

putting it away. This will prolong cable life and prevent

unpleasant odors as well as the damaging effects of

drain cleaning compounds.

11. Once all of the cable is fed back into the drum, tighten

the chuck.

Post-operation maintenance

12. Drain water from drum. Your model is equipped with

a drain hole in the cable drum. Water, sediment and

debris can corrode cable – remove the drum from the

machine (see “To Remove Drum from Frame” below)

and place it face down to allow all the water to drip

out. This should be done after every use.

Fingers or other body parts can be caught in rotating

parts and crush. Do not wear loose clothing, neck ties,

unbuttoned jackets, rings, watches or jewelry and always

tie back long hair. This will help reduce the risk of

entanglement with moving parts.

This machine has manual cable feed and it does NOT

automatically extend or retract the cable into the machine.

Cable MUST be fed by hand. You will use the machine

to clear obstructions, return to hand feeding the cable in

between clogs or joints.

1. Plug the machine into a properly grounded outlet.

Leave the motor in the OFF position.

2. Loosen chuck and pull sufcient cable out of the drum

and place the end of the cable as far into the inlet as

possible. The machine should be NO MORE THAN 2

FEET from the drain opening, with around 4 feet of

uncovered cable between the drain opening and drum

opening. The cable should form a slight arch. NEVER

FORCE cable down the line. When the cable will not

feed further into the drain pipe, the cable is probably

stuck against an elbow or joint in the pipe or may have

reached the clog.
