General Safety Rules

Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to fol-
low the warnings and instructions may result in electri-
cal shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

Work Area Safety

• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate equipment in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases,
or dust. Equipment can create sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating
equipment. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfac-
es such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose equipment to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering equipment will increase the risk of elec-
trical shock.
• Keep all electrical connections dry and off the
ground. Touching equipment or plugs with wet hands
can increase the risk of electrical shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carry-
ing, pulling, or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges, and moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk of electrical shock.
• If operating equipment in a damp location is unavoid-
able, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) pro-
tected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of elec-
trical shock.

Personal Safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use com-
mon sense when operating equipment. Do not use
equipment while you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating equipment may result in serious injury.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Loose clothes, jewelry, and long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
• Practice good hygiene. Use hot, soapy water to wash
hands and other body parts exposed to drain contents
after handling or using drain inspection equipment. To
prevent contamination from toxic or infectious material,
do not eat or smoke while operating or handling drain in-
spection equipment.
• Always use appropriate personal protective equip-
ment when handling and using equipment in drains.
Drains may contain chemicals, bacteria, and other sub-
stances that may be toxic, infectious, and cause burns or
other issues. Appropriate personal protective equipment
always includes safety glasses and may include a dust
mask, hard hat, hearing protection, drain cleaning gloves
or mitts, latex or rubber gloves, face shields, goggles, pro-
tective clothing, respirators, and steel toed, non-skid foot-
wear.
• If using drain cleaning equipment and drain inspec-
tion equipment at the same time, wear RID GID drain
cleaning gloves. Never grasp the rotating drain cleaning
cable with anything else, including other gloves or a rag
which can become wrapped around the cable and cause
hand injuries. Only wear latex or rubber gloves under-
neath RID GID drain cleaner gloves. Do not use damaged
drain cleaning gloves.
