TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE (TABLE 3)
Problem Probable Cause Solution
Cable kinks or breaks. Operator forcing the cable. Do not force the cable. Let the cutter do the work.
Too much slack between machine and drain. Do not allow more than six inches between machine and drain.
Cable used in wrong size drain line. A cable that is too large or too small in diameter for a line is more
likely to kink. (Consult Table 1—Cable Applications.)
Cable exposed to acid Clean and oil cables regularly.
Cable tangles in container. Operator forcing the cable. Do not force the cable. Let the cutter do the work.
Motor does not run. Trigger in neutral (off) position. Switch Trigger to either Forward or Reverse.
Motor turns in one direction
but not other.
Reverse switch failure. Replace reverse switch.
MAINTENANCE
To keep your machine operating smoothly, it is essential that all bear-
ings and bushings be lubricated. Oiling moving parts is particularly
important where machine comes in contact with sand, grit and other
abrasive material.
1. Remove the cutter and connecting screw from the cable, if one is
attached.
2. Loosen three screws that hold
front and back of container
together.
3. Pull the container front off of
the machine, revealing the
cable cartridge within.
4. Remove the cable cartridge.
5. Press replacement cartridge firmly into back of container. Make
sure to line up the grooves in the cartridge with the slots in the
container back.
6. Slide the cable through the container front.
7. Position the container front so that the three screws aligned with
the slots in the container back. Press the container front into the
container back.
8. Tighten screws firmly, making sure the screw heads are centered
in the slots and flush with the container surface.

CABLE MAINTENENCE
To get maximum service from your cables, be sure
that they are clean and well oiled. This not only pro-
vides running lubrication but greatly extends the life
of the cables as well. Some users periodically pour
oil directly into the drum. Then, as the drum turns,
the cables get complete lubrication. Our SNAKE OIL
is ideally suited for this purpose, since it not only
lubricates the cables, it deodorizes them as well.
