1. Place machine at a distance of not greater than two
feet of drain opening. If you can’t place the machine
this close to the drain opening, run the cable through
a pipe or a metal guide tube to prevent cable whip-
ping. The Sewerooter T-3 Guide Tube (T3-GT) is
ideal for this. Guide Tube Extensions (GTE) are also
available.
2. Position the air foot pedal for easy accessibility. The
machine is designed for one-person operation. Be
sure you can quickly remove your foot from the pedal
in an emergency.
3. Be sure the motor switch is in the off position.
4. Select the proper cutting tool (See Cutter Application
Chart—Table 2). A good tool to start with is the Ar-
row Head or 1-1/2‖ U-Cutter. After the line is opened,
follow with larger blades, which scrape the inside
edges of the pipe, assuring a real cleaning job. If
you’re having difficulty getting around a P-trap or
close bend, attach the Flexible Leader (for 1/2" cable
only).
5. Insert the cutter into the female connector at the end
of the cable and tighten the connecting screw and
lock washer
firmly in place.
MAKE SURE THE MOTOR SWITCH IS IN
THE ‗OFF‘ POSITION!
OPERATION
SET-UP
OPERATION
1. Begin by pulling the cable from the drum and sliding
it into the drain as far as it will go.
2. Before stepping on the foot pedal, put the cable into
the drain line. Make sure the motor switch is set in
the
forward position.
3. With a leather-gloved hand on the guide tube or ca-
ble, and the other on the feed control lever, depress
the air foot pedal to start machine.
4. Feed the cable into the line and against the obstruc-
tion with a firm, even pressure. Adjust the feeding
rate to the resistance met. Do not force the cable –
let the cutter do the work. The job won’t get done
any faster and you could damage the cable.
