Cleaning

A mild detergent or antibacterial solution can be used if

plugging in and using.
Monthly, follow the "Changing Clutch Jaw Assembly" di-
rections and inspect the clutch jaws. Clean or replace if
necessary.

water after every use to prevent damaging effects of sed-
iment and drain cleaning compounds. Allow to dry to re-
duce cable corrosion.
Guide Hose – Flush with water and drain. Use a damp,
soft cloth to wipe off. Allow to dry to reduce corrosion.

Lubrication

Machine – machine is lubricated for life and requires no fur-
ther lubrication.
Cables – lubricate coupling plunger pins with light ma-
chine oil.
Guide Hose – Pull a lightly oiled towel through the dry guide
hose to keep it flexible.

cable will not slide through the machine, the jaws are
set too small. If the cable does not turn when the clutch
lever handle is engaged, the jaws are set too large.
When changing between 1
cable, the clutch must be adjusted.
