utilize a larger drain cleaning machine such as the

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
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment
of inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
•
Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection.
Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
WARNING indicates a hazardous
situation that, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

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 finger on the
switch or energizing power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.

at all times.
This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
