can result from some drain cleaning compounds. 
• Do not operate machine if operator or machine 

is  standing  in  water.  Will  increase  the  risk  of 

electrical shock. 
• Wear safety glasses and rubber soled, non-slip 

shoes. Use of this safety equipment may prevent 

serious injury. 
• Only use the A75 to clean drain lines up to 4″ in 

diameter.  Follow  instructions  on  the  use  of  the 

machine.  Other  uses  or  modifying  the  drain 

cleaner  for  other  applications  may  increase  the 

risk of injury. 

 

Description, Specifications and 

Standard Equipment 

Description 

The  A75  is  a  portable  Drain  Cleaning  Machine 

designed  to  clean  11/4

”  to  4”  drain  lines. 

Applications  include  sink,  shower  and  floor 

drains.  Capable  of  running  three  different  size 

cables: 5/16

” and 5/8”. 

The machine is driven by a 300W motor that has 

a  grounded  electrical  system.  A  toggle  switch 

provides  FORWARD/OFF/REVERSE  control  of 

the motor. 

The  A75  is  designed  to  use  5/8

”(16mm) 

diameter  sectional-type  cable  that  has  a  quick 

change coupling system for disconnecting tools. 

The cable is manually fed in and out of the drain 

and rotates at a speed of 400 RPM. The rotation 

of the cable is controlled by a clutch handle. The 

cable  stops  instantly  when  the  clutch  handle  is 

released. 

The A75 is also designed to use with the adapter 

which hold 5/16

”(8mm) continuous length cables. 

Rotation of the adapter is controlled by the clutch 

handle.  The  cable  adapter  is  equipped  with  a 

quick-acting  brake  which  immediately  stops 

rotation  of  the  drum  when  the  clutch  handle  is 

pulled upward.

If  the  plug  has  been  modified,  is  missing  the 

grounding  prong  or  if  the  cord  is  damaged,  do 

not  use  the  Drain  Cleaning  Machine  until  the 

cord has been replaced. 

3.  Inspect  the  Drain  Cleaning  Machine  for  any 

broken,  missing,  misaligned  or  binding  parts  as 

well as any other conditions which may affect the 

safe and normal operation of the machine. If any
