- Page 2 (Nylons, Chain and Wire etc) You must read the manual for guidance. In the unlikely event you will ever need to use this guarantee, you will be required to return the product to Rodtech or a Rodtech Agent before a replacement part is supplied (subject to our misuse policy).
- Page 3 When connecting the rods, keep them as straight as possible to ensure a smooth action. When using the click range you will not need to depress any buttons as they have been designed to click together easily, and when they lock together they will make a click, whereas if you are using the button lock range you will have to depress the button to connect the rods to each other.
- Page 4 Always use the correct heads and rods for the flue you are sweeping; A guide is given below, but further instruction on rods and heads is given later in this document; 8mm Rods (mini click system) should only be used in gas and oil flues no bigger than 5 inches (125mm).
- Page 5 15mm which are for lined and unlined flues of 8 to 18 inches (200mm- 450mm) 18mm which are for flues greater than 18 inches with or without bends (450mm+) 18mm Aluminium, which must be used on straight flues only, and must be used with the solid 18mm rods in-between each aluminium rod.
- Page 6 It is unusual to break or damage rods in the learning process with our Rodtech solid rods, provided you adhere to this manual as well as using and maintaining the equipment properly, should there be a manufacturing fault with the Click Rod joints or ferrules etc, they are covered under our 1 year guarantee.
- Page 7 We also have adaptors for the Click rods which enable the rods to be used for other applications. To re-strand the 300mm (12”) Bullet head, you must locate the grub screw, housed in the connection area at the bottom of the head.
- Page 8 Use your 13mm spanner to remove the nut and it will then separate into 5 component parts. Using your Rodtech replacement strands follow the steps as illustrated below. You will need to gently hold both ends of the strands together to give you an approx. midpoint, and then place in the appropriate channels as shown.
- Page 9 process a couple of times. The speed of the drill determines the force generated to clean the chimney. It is always advised to use low speeds in pre 1966 chimneys (rendered flues), and to always use battery power tools to safe guard yourself. The Super Scrub heads come in three sizes, 300mm (12”), 600mm (24”) and Inglenook 900mm (36”).
- Page 10 With the Click Rod system you can purchase additional mid-rod heads to aid in the smooth removal of a nest. All birds their nests and eggs are protected by law: The Wildlife & Countryside Act of 1981. This makes it an offence, with certain exceptions, to deliberately take, damage or destroy the nest of any wild bird while it is in use or being built.
- Page 11 In the Click range there are 6 different sizes of rods available for rotary power sweeping. The 8mm and 10mm are a mini click system. 12-18mm are Click Lock. You can use an 8mm rod as a leader on the 10mm rod. The 12mm as a leader for 15mm rods, and 15mm as a leader for the 18mm.
- Page 12 Rodtech Click rods should the operator desire to manual sweep. It comes with a grub screw so that you can secure your desired brush to the adaptor to be able to turn your Rodtech Click rods clockwise and Anti-clockwise when manually sweeping providing the grub screw has been tightened sufficiently.
