not other.
Ground fault circuit interrupter

Probable Cause
Operator forcing the cable.
Too much slack between machine and
drain.
Cable used in wrong size drain line.
Cable exposed to acid.
Operator forcing the cable.
Machine running in reverse.
Hole in pedal or hose.

Feed misadjusted.
Feed roller frozen.
Worn cable.
Solution
Do not force the cable. Let the cutter do the work.
Allow no more than two feet between machine and drain.
A cable that is too large or too small in diameter for a line is more
likely to kink. (Consult Table 1—Cable Applications.)
Clean and oil cables regularly.
Do not force the cable. Let the cutter do the work.
Do not run the machine in reverse to retract the cable from the
drain.
Replace as required.
If no hole found in pedal or hose, replace diaphragm switch.
Replace reverse switch. Note: Momentary contact switch must
be held in position when using reverse.
Replace cords.
Take motor to authorized repair center.
Replace ground fault circuit interrupter.
Do not force cable.
Do not run machine in reverse. Use proper cable size. (Consult
Cable Application Chart—Table 1).
If feed tension knob is too loose the cable will slip. If it is too tight
the feed rollers will wear prematurely.
Clean and lubricate feed rollers regularly. Replace worn rollers.
When cable coils wear flat, cable should be replaced.
