the “ON” position.
20. Turn the speed control valve
clockwise (towards ‘max’) until the
desired speed (130 ft/min max) is
achieved.

rod enters the machine without debris. Care must be taken to avoid injury by clothing or
fingers being dragged into the machine. Failure to do so may result in damage to the rod
form the drive belts and/or jamming of the rod.

control knob to the min to stop the
machine, (counter clockwise),
press the reset button and select
neutral from the direction control
valve.

(5) seconds for the display to appear. Pressing SEL toggles between installation dis-
tance (ft) and speed (ft/min) (designated by R). Pressing RST will reset the distance
reading to zero (0).
24. To prevent dirt from entering the
machine when pulling back the
rod, use a felt wiper at the sub-
duct out feed side and clamp it
tightly to the rod as shown in
