SPECIAL
APPLICATIONS
Reverse Operation
Running this machine in reverse should only be done if the cable
becomes blocked and only for a few seconds, enough to free the
end of the cable. If the cable gets caught on an obstruction,
immediately release the trigger and take your foot off the foot pedal to
allow the machine to come to a complete stop. Fully tighten the
thumbscrew and turn the drill switch to the (REV) position and depress
the foot pedal. Grasp the cable with a gloved hand and pull it while
jogging the trigger. When the cable is dislodged, place the drill motor
switch in the forward (FOR) position, loosen the thumbscrew, and
follow normal operating procedure.
Lubrication
Grease all exposed and moving parts.
Storage
The machine must be kept in a dry, safe place, out of the reach
of children.
Cables
The metal cable should be thoroughly cleaned with water to prevent
unpleasant odors and the damaging effects of drain cleaning
compounds.
