Safety Instructions
WARNING: Continued drum rotation in reverse position will cause cable to "jump" out of drum. Possible
operator injury could result.
14. Keep children away. Do not let visitors contact tool or extension cord. All visitors should be kept away from work area.
15. Use recommended equipment and accessories. Use of improper equipment may be hazardous.
Don't force small cable with attachment to do the job of heavy-duty cable.
16. Don't force tool. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was intended.
17. Remove punches and wrenches. Form a habit of checking to see that punches and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool
before turning it on.
18. Keep guards in place. Never operate machine with guard removed.
19. Avoid operating machine in reverse. Operating machine in reverse can result in cable damage and is used only to back tool away
from an obstruction.
20. Do not over torque cables. Excessive and/or continued rotation of the drum once an obstruction has been encountered will over
torque the cable. Kinking or breakage of cable may result. A worn cable can be identified as being very limber, kinked, or having
flattened coils on the outside of cable. Worn cable should be replaced as soon as possible.
21. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance.
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
Never use damaged power cords.
Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged, repair with proper Spartan replacement parts.
Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
22. Check damaged parts. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to
determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding or moving
parts, breakage of parts, mounting and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced.
Replace defective switches with proper Spartan replacement parts.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn on and off
23. Store idle tools. When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry and locked up place, away from children.
24. Handling cables. Be very careful when cleaning drains exposed to cleaning compounds. Wear protective gloves when handling
cable, and avoid direct contact of skin and especially the eyes and facial areas as serious burns can result from some drain cleaning
compounds.
