20. Do not operate this machine if operator or
machine is standing in water. Operating machine
while in water increases the risk of electrical shock.
21. Only use drain cleaning machine to clean
drains of recommended sizes according
to these instructions. Other uses or
modifying the drain cleaning machine for other
applications may increase the risk of injury.
22. Be aware of possible damage to drain
lines that may result from the discovery
of roots and other obstacles.
Vibration Safety
This tool vibrates during use.
Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may
cause temporary or permanent physical injury,
particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders. To
reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for
an extended period should first be examined
by a doctor and then have regular medical
check-ups to ensure medical problems are not
being caused or worsened from use. Pregnant
women or people who have impaired blood
circulation to the hand, past hand injuries,
nervous system disorders, diabetes, or
Raynaud's Disease should not use this tool.
If you feel any symptoms related to vibration (such
as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers),
seek medical advice as soon as possible.
Ground Fault circuit interrupter protection
This Drain Cleaner is provided with a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug of the power-
supply cord. This device provides additional protection from the risk of electric shock. Should replacement of
the plug or cord become necessary, use only identical replacement parts that include GFCI protection.

23. WarninG! tO preVent SeriOuS inJury:
people with pacemakers should consult
their physician(s) before using this product.
Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to a heart
pacemaker could cause interference to or failure of
the pacemaker. In addition, people with pacemakers
should adhere to the following:
• Avoid operating power tools alone.
• Properly maintain and inspect all tools
before use to avoid electrical shock.

operator that common sense and caution are
factors which cannot be built into this product,
but must be supplied by the operator.
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces
the blood supply to the hands and fingers,
increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.

when there is a choice.
5. Include vibration-free periods each day of work.
