K-400 Drain Cleaning Machine
Figure 9 – Handle Operation
7 . Position the drain cleaning machine so
that the K-400 cable outlet is within 2 feet
(0.6m) of the drain access. Greater dis-
tances from the drain access increases
the risk of the cable twisting or kinking. If
the machine cannot be placed with the
drum opening within 2' (0.6m) of the drain
access, extend the drain access back to
within 2' (0.6m) of the cable outlet with
similar sized pipe and fittings. Improper
cable support can allow the cable to kink
and twist and can damage the cable or in-
jure the operator. (See Figure 10.) If using
front guide hose, place machine so that at
least 6" (150mm) of guide hose can be
placed in drain opening.

within 2' (0.6m) of Cable Outlet

standers away from the drain cleaner and
work area. The drain cleaning pro cess
can be messy and bystanders can distract
the operator.
9. Select proper tool for the conditions. If
the nature of the obstruction is unknown,
it is good practice to use a straight or
bulb auger to explore the obstruction and
retrieve a piece of the obstruction for in-
spection.
Once the nature of the obstruction is
known, an appropriate tool can be se-
lected for the application. A good rule of
thumb is to start by running the smallest
available tool through the blockage to
allow the backed up water to start flowing
and carry away the debris and cuttings as
the drain is cleaned. Once the drain is
open and flowing, other tools appropriate
for the blockage can be used. Generally,
the largest tool used should be no bigger
than the inside diameter of the drain
minus one inch.
