it ON and OFF. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Store idle tools out of the reach of children and
other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp
and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that
may affect the tool's operation. If damaged, have the
tool serviced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the
manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may
be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when
used on another tool.

by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical replace-
ment parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance

risk of injury, including burns, and damage to the jet-
ter.
• One person must control both the jetting process
and the foot valve. Always use the foot valve. If the
jetter hose comes out of the drain, the operator must be
able to shut the water flow off to reduce the risk of the
jetter hose whipping, causing striking and high pressure
injection injuries.
• Always use appropriate personal protective equip-
ment while handling and using drain cleaning equip-
ment. Drain may contain chemicals, bacteria and other
substances that may be toxic, infectious, cause burns or
other issues. Appropriate personal protective equip-
ment always includes safety glasses and gloves, and
may also include equipment such as latex or rubber
gloves, face shields, goggles, protective clothing, res-
pirators, and steel toed footwear.
• Practice good hygiene. Use hot soapy water to
wash hands and other body parts exposed to drain
contents after handling or using drain cleaning
equipment. Do not eat or smoke while operating or
handling drain cleaning equipment. This will help pre-
vent contamination with toxic or infectious material.
• Do not spray toxic or flammable liquids. This will re-
duce the risk of burns, fire, explosion or other injury.
• Gasoline and its vapors are highly flammable and
explosive. See engine manual for precautions to re-
duce the risk of burns, explosions and serious injury
while handling and using gasoline.
• Engines produce carbon monoxide, a colorless,
odorless poison gas. Breathing carbon monoxide
can cause nausea, fainting or death. Do not start and
run engine in an enclosed area, even if doors and
windows are open. Only operate outside.
• Hot surfaces can cause burns and fire. Keep body
parts and flammable material away from hot surfaces.
• Read and understand this manual, the engine man-
ual and the warnings and instructions for all equip-
ment being used with this tool before operating.
Failure to follow all warnings and instructions may result
in property damage and/or serious injury.
