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

turn ing 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

dis tances can cause control problems 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 protec-

tive equipment 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 per-

sonal 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 equipment. Do not
eat or smoke while operating or handling
drain cleaning equipment. This will help
prevent contamination with toxic or infec­tious material.
