Operation
Note: This product is designed for household use; not for industrial applications.
1. Select one of the Adapters that best fits the drain size.
2. Snap the Adapter onto the end of the Pistol.
See photo below. Use the largest Adapter for the toilet bowl, the smaller ones
for sinks and other drains.
3. Remove all loose particles from the drain and sink area.
4. Fill the drain with warm, soapy water if possible.
The Air Powered Drain Cleaner works best when the drain is filled with warm,
soapy water, up and over, the rubber Adapter.
5. When possible, support the bottom of the drain trap to keep the air blast from
damaging the trap.
Warning: Do not use the Air Powered Drain Cleaner if the sink or drain is filled
with any type of caustic drain cleaner or flammable material. This liquid could
splash back into your hands or face and cause burns or blindness. Do not air
blast the drain pipe if the pipes are not in good condition. Damage could occur.
6. Plug or cover the sink’s overflow hole (or air vent) with a wet cloth to keep the
clogged substance from being flushed back out of the hole.
When unplugging a toilet, cover the bowl (on both sides of the Pistol) to keep
debris and liquids from splashing out of the bowl.
7. Pump the Pistol Piston 5 to 10 times when unplugging a sink. For a toilet,
pump up to 40 times (maximum).
8. Securely place the Pistol with Adapter squarely over the drain, then pull the
Trigger.
9. Repeat these steps until the drain is cleared, and water flows freely.
