The Rodrunner offers all the features that
contractors like in a sectional sewer cleaner –
light weight, high speed cable rotation, and short,
quick-coupling cables.
Two Way Operation
Set the Rodrunner up close to the drain opening,
or on easier jobs where you have some working
room, you can run the machine “lawn-mower”
fashion, standing behind the machine.
For close-up work, the wheel brake is set, the
power switch is placed next to the machine as
a foot switch, and the cable guide hose is attached.
Now, the Rodrunner is ready to handle the toughest
stoppages in 3-10" lines, as far as 200 feet away.
A heavy-duty 3/4 hp motor with capacitor and
overload protection spins cable at 700 rpm, an
ideal speed for self-feeding into the line while
protecting the cable against sudden torque
