Drain Cleaner Safety

• Wear leather work gloves. Never grasp the rotating
cable with anything else, including cloth gloves
or a rag. They can become wrapped around the cable,
causing hand injuries. Only wear latex or rubber gloves
under leather work gloves. Do not use damaged
gloves.
• Do not allow the end of cable to stop turning
while the machine is running. This can overstress
the cable and may cause twisting, kinking or breaking
of the cable.
• Position machine within 4" of the drain inlet or
properly support exposed cable when the distance
exceeds 4". Greater distances can cause control prob-
lems leading to twisting, kinking or breaking of the
cable.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your
hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose
clothing, jewelry or hair can be caught in moving parts.
• Always use appropriate personal protective equip-
ment while handling and using drain cleaning
equipment. Drains may contain chemicals, bacteria and
other substances that may be toxic, infectious, cause
burns or other issues. Appropriate personal protective
equipment always includes safety glasses and
leather work gloves in good condition, and may in-
clude equipment such as latex or rubber gloves, face
shields, goggles, protective clothing, respirators 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 equip-
ment. Do not eat or smoke while operating or handling
drain cleaning equipment. This will help prevent cont-
amination with toxic or infectious material.
• Do not operate this machine if operator or ma-
chine is standing in water. Operating machine while
in water increases the risk of electrical shock.
