MOTOR
|
5 amp
gear motor which rotates at variable speeds up to 325 rpm is mounted in a
housing which is held on the frame with 4 bolts. This motor has a direct
drive system that connects snake drum by means of a spring loaded latch. On
the side of the motor housing is a reversing lever and a gfi electric shock
protector. The housing has spring clips to hold an on/off foot pedal with
6ft. cord.

FRAME
|
The well
balanced combination frame and carrying handle has 4 non-slip, no-mar feet.
A 5th foot allows the unit to be laid back for sink work.

|
CARRYING
|
By
separating the drum from the carrying frame, a maximum of 23 lbs. can be
carried in each hand. Many plumbers go down the stack from the roof with
the PRO-XL before carrying a larger machine to the roof to break a
stoppage. It works most of the time!

LARGE
DRUM
|
Holds
3/8" x 75' of snake and is equipped with a tee bolt in the nose for
locking the snake so it rotates with the drum for hard jobs.
|
|
|
SNORKEL
|
A
non-rotating 4ft. stainless steel snorkel is mounted on the narrow drum. It
holds 50' of 1/4" snake for cleaning sinks, tubs and showers. While
holding the snorkel in one hand the snake is fed into the drain with the
other. The foot pedal controls snake rotation.

|
EXCLUSIVE
FEATURE
|
The
motor used for the PRO-XL is capable of slowing down and it is matched to
the snake so that when the snake encounters resistance going down through a
bend, or in a difficult stoppage, instead of kinking the snake, the drum
slows down. This slow down prevents kinking and prolongs the life of the snake.
