Setting Up The Nanoreel - RIDGID SeeSnake NanoReel Operator's Manual

proof. Electrical connections can cause sparks.
Clear, level, stable dry place for machine and operator.
Do not use the machine while standing in water. If
required, remove the water from the work area. Ensure
the nanoReel is stable.
Clear path to electrical outlet if used for monitor, that
does not contain any potential sources of damage for
the power cord.
2. If possible, inspect the work to be done. Determine
the drain access points, sizes, and lengths, and the
presence of chemicals. If chemicals are present,
understand the specific safety measures required
to work around those chemicals. Contact the
chemical manufacturer for required information.
3. If needed, remove fixtures such as the water closet
or sink, to obtain better access.
4. Determine the correct equipment for the application.
The nanoReel is designed for lines no greater than
80 ft [24.4 m] long and for lines with diameters from
1 in to 3 in [25.4 mm to 76.2 mm].
5. Properly inspect all equipment.
6. Evaluate the work area and use barriers to keep
bystanders away as needed. Bystanders can
distract the operator during use. If working near
traffic, erect cones or other barriers to alert drivers.

Setting Up the nanoReel

Connections
When using the nanoReel with a micro CA-300, no
additional connections beyond those described in the
assembly section are needed when setting up the unit
for an inspection.
To use the nanoReel with a SeeSnake CCU perform the
following:
1. Unwrap the SeeSnake System Cable from its holder,
pull back the locking sleeve, and match the System
Cable plug to the matching SeeSnake System
Connector on the CCU (See Item 1, Figure 13).
2. To join the connectors, align the guide pin to the
guide socket, push the connector straight in. A
guide ridge molded into the top of the cable
connector will point up when the plug is correctly
aligned (See Item 2, Figure 13).
3. Tighten the outer locking sleeve.

NOTICE
When connecting or disconnecting the Sys-
tem Cable, twist only the locking sleeve! To prevent dam-
age to pins, never bend or twist the connector or cable!
The nanoReel can be used with any SeeSnake CCUs by
changing the system cable as specified in the assembly
section.
Set up the micro CA-300 or CCU in accordance with
its instructions. If using the micro CA-300 or a battery
powered CCU, make sure that the required batteries are
fully charged and installed.
Placement
1. Place the micro CA-300 or CCU monitor next to the
push cable entry point or other area to allow easy
viewing while manipulating the push cable and
camera. The location should not be wet or allow
the monitor unit to get wet during use.
2. Set the nanoReel approximately 6 ft [2 m] from the
entry point to provide ample room to grasp and
manipulate the push cable without allowing excess
cable to drag on the ground. When properly located,
the push cable will only come off the nanoReel
when pulled.
3. Preferably, lay the nanoReel on its back with the
camera unit and push cable on top. The foot pads
on the cord wrap will cushion the nanoReel when
placed on its back. This position provides the
greatest stability and prevents the nanoReel from
tipping during use.
