Drain Cleaning Tools for Professionals

1.) 

Repairing a Cable with the Front Male Fitting (SP-31) and        

     Tool Adapter (SP-30)

If your cable has been broken off at the front of the machine, follow these instructions for repair:

A.) If the end of the cable is uneven, it is a good idea to grind the end to get an even, flat end.

B.) Approximately 1

 of inner core needs to be removed to allow space for the new SP-31 to          

      be installed into the cable.

First, insert the end of the cable to be repaired into a vice. Take a pair of needle nose plyers 
and pull out about an inch of the inner cable. Cut the inner core off with bolt cutters or cold 
chisel. Push the inner core back into the outer cable. The SP-31 can now be screwed into 
the cable. Attach the SP-30 tool adapter to the new front fitting using the 1/4

” 

connector 

pin provided.

NOTE #1:

 If your cable has experienced a lot of wear and the inner core will not pull freely, it 

will be necessary to drill out the inner core or use a pin punch and hammer to drive the inner 
core down into the cable. Use a 1/4

 punch for 3/4

 diameter cable or a 1/8

 punch for 5/8

 

diameter cable.

Your cable is now repaired and ready to continue to use.

Note: Always refer to operator’s manual and safety instructions before operating any drain and sewer cleaning equipment.
