3.1 Hog Tools (Optional)
Hog Technologies builds a variety of useful at-
tachments called Hog Tools that can be used
with the SH5500. The most common tools are
the HT1100 Hog Waller, HT1000 Ground Hog and
the HT100 Hand Hog. These tools connect to the
electrical and hydraulic quick disconnect couplers
just behind the Hog Arm and to the truck UHP and
vacuum systems.
This section provides a brief overview of how these
tools work with the SH5500 for your information.
An operating manual that ships with each Hog Tool
provides more detailed information on the opera-
tion, safety and maintenance. Handheld, ultra
high pressure waterblasting tools can be extreme-
ly dangerous if they are not used properly and all
safety precautions followed. You should read the
operating manual for each tool and completely
understand the operation, maintenance and all
safety precautions before operating the tool.
