Deploy pushrods

Unwind the pushrod some distance so you can deploy the camera down into a manhole before starting
the pipe survey. Follow these steps:
1. Slowly release the brake and rotate the reel to unwind the pushrod.
Caution: Pushrods can self-propel and cause injury to the operator. We recommend that you
adjust the brake slowly to prevent the reel unwinding too quickly. You can adjust the brake
lever position by pulling it out and turning.
2. When a sufficient length of pushrod is free, insert the camera into the pipe or manhole.
3. Push the pushrod by hand until the camera is in position to start the survey. Rotate the reel if you need
more length.
4. Zero the camera distance; see section 6.11.
