2. Sikkerhedsinstruktioner
ADVARSEL: Failure to follow these safety instructions can result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
- Sikkerhed på arbejdsområdet: Hold arbejdsområdet rent og godt oplyst. Rodede eller mørke områder indbyder til ulykker. Brug ikke elværktøj i eksplosive atmosfærer, f.eks. i nærheden af brandfarlige væsker, gasser eller støv.
- Elektrisk sikkerhed: Stik på elværktøj skal passe til stikkontakten. Modificer aldrig stikket på nogen måde. Brug ikke adapterstik med jordforbundne elværktøjer. Undgå kropskontakt med jordforbundne overflader såsom rør, radiatorer, komfurer og køleskabe.
- Personlig sikkerhed: Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses, gloves, and sturdy footwear. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
- Brug og pleje af værktøj: Tving ikke elværktøjet. Brug det korrekte elværktøj til din opgave. Brug ikke elværktøjet, hvis kontakten ikke tænder og slukker det. Tag stikket ud af strømkilden, før du foretager justeringer, skifter tilbehør eller opbevarer elværktøj.
- Specific to Pipe Cleaning: Ensure the guide hose is securely attached. Always feed the cleaning spiral slowly and carefully into the pipe. Be aware of potential kickback if the spiral encounters a severe blockage.
- Opretholdelse: Få dit elværktøj efterset af en kvalificeret reparatør, der kun bruger identiske reservedele. Dette vil sikre, at elværktøjets sikkerhed opretholdes.

5. Betjeningsvejledning
Før brug skal du sørge for at alle sikkerhedsforanstaltninger er forstået og fulgt.
- Initial Spiral Insertion: Manually feed the cleaning spiral into the pipe opening until it meets resistance or reaches the blockage.
- Engaging the Drive: Press the foot switch to start the motor. Gently engage the drive lever to begin rotating the spiral.
- Clearing the Blockage: Apply steady, controlled pressure to feed the rotating spiral into the blockage. Do not force the spiral. Allow the rotation to work through the obstruction.
- Retracting the Spiral: Once the blockage is cleared, disengage the drive lever and release the foot switch. Slowly retract the spiral from the pipe, cleaning it as it exits.
- Gentag om nødvendigt: For stubborn blockages, it may be necessary to repeat the process or use a different cleaning tool.
- Final Flush: After clearing the blockage, flush the pipe with water to ensure it is completely clear.
