These words have the following definitions:A ‘Danger’ label indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. This signal word is to be limited to the most extreme situation, typically for machine components that, for functional purposes, cannot be guarded. The word ‘danger’ will be in white letters on a red background.A ‘Caution’ label indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices. The word ‘caution’ will be in black letters on a yellow background.The safety label format includes the signal word and symbol, a picture (not required), and the message.A ‘Warning’ label indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury, and includes hazards that are exposed when guards are removed. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices. The word ‘warning’ will be in black letters on an orange background.DANGERCAUTIONDuracable® Machine ManualModel DM125 & Model DM138Order Entry: 800-247-4081 l Answer Line: 877-257-17814Information and SpecificationsSafe Machine OperationRead this machine manual thoroughly before assembling or operating the machine. Become familiar with its controls and proper use before operating. Keep this manual in a handy place for reference and parts replacement referral. This machine is designed specifically for the purpose of opening and cleaning drains. Use it for this purpose - do not use it for other purposes.Use gloves to protect your hands. Wear them to feed and retrieve cable. Use a material that can not be easily grabbed by the cable. Most leather gloves and certain rubber gloves work well. Duracable Manufacturing Company has each type available through the Duracable Product Catalog. Also, avoid the use of loose-fitting clothes or jewelry when operating this machine.Keep guards in place to protect the operator from the electric motor and electrical wiring. These guards are for safety protection and must be in place when running the machine. Each machine is equipped with an air foot pedal or toggle on/off switch. The pedal allows the machine operator to turn the machine on or off with the foot while keeping both hands on the cable.Select a work area free from obstruction with room to work. Keep the machine within three feet of the pipe opening, allowing only enough room to work. This is required to shorten the length of exposed cable, thus providing maximum control in high-torque situations. Take a position that is comfortable to the left or right side of the machine for feeding or retrieving cable. For high work openings, the machine can be placed on its back as conditions require.When performing a job, use the smallest blade first. Rinse the pipe after each blade is run through the line in order to clean out loosened debris. Then follow with the increasing sizes of blades until the size used is one that actually scrapes the side of the pipe or sewer. The cutting blades are flexible and can be compressed to enter most cleanout openings. Centrifugal force created by the spinning cable forces the blades to expand to their natural diameter or to the walls of the pipe. It is advisable to maintain a very keen cutting edge on the blades at all times.Place two hands on the cable between the outlet of your machine and the cleanout, and keep them there at all times during operation. Your hands placed in the proper position will provide a guide for the cable. As the blade makes contact with an obstruction in the line, it stops the blade from turning and builds torque in the cable. Do not permit the blade to get hung up in an obstruction for more than three seconds. Torque buildup can be both helpful and dangerous. It is helpful when pulled from the obstruction in a timely manner. When the cable is pulled away, the tension is released and the blade turns at a high speed. When the blade is free, feed it back into the obstruction to make use of the built-up power to clean the line. It is dangerous because excess torque can cause looping over of the cable. Serious injury to fingers and hands is possible unless precautions are observed. When retrieving cable from the line, feed the cable into the machine until the blade is close to the cleanout opening. Shut off the machine and hand-feed the remaining cable into the machine.Unpacking Your MachineThe Model DM125/DM138 is shipped to you fully assembled and ready to use. The base machine, reel, cable, and the revolving arm are all included. When the machine arrives, remove it immediately and inspect for damage. If any of the contents are damaged, contact your motor freight carrier immediately.Lubrication MaintenanceCaution: Do not over oil these points.• Reel Shaft and Reel Bearings - Check and re-tighten set screws during the first 24 to 48 hours of operation. The reel shaft requires monthly lubrication. Use a multipurpose grease or heavy oil. Keeping the shaft lubricated means the reel will slide freely and will not “freeze” to the shaft and need to be repaired. The reel bearings require some light oil monthly.• Belt - Check tension during the first 24 to 48 hours of operation.• Belt Tension - Ideal deflection is 1/4”. Over tensioning shortens belt and bearing life.• Air Foot Pedal - Check for wear or stress cracks.Cable Care InstructionsTake care of your cable for optimum performance. The recommended care procedure is as follows:• Break in a new cable. To relieve the stress on new cable that has been coiled since its manufacture, put it in a clean line and run it for 10 minutes.• Oil the cable once a week.• Rinse the cable immediately after each use with the hottest water available. This is especially important if the cable was in acid or alkali during use.• When one end of the cable begins to show wear, rewind and use the opposite end. (Tip: order the same kind of end fittings on both ends of the cable.)• If the cable kinks, cut out the kink and splice the cable ends together.Model DM125 & Model DM138www.duracable.com l sales@duracable.com 5Machine OperationInstalling New Cable• Remove cable from the carton and lay it in a straight line on the floor.• Make sure the reel is secured on the machine and the revolving arm rotates freely.• Feed the cable through the revolving arm.• The revolving arm must be turning counterclockwise while loading the cable.• Install the guide tube, cable end, and cutting blade. The cable end may be bent to desired form (as shown to the right).DM1381/4 HP Motor230 rpmPulley Drive14” Reel3/8” x 90’ Cable2-Year WarrantyOptional HandleContinuous WeldUni-body FrameUSES:1-1/4” to 3” lines,Residential,Sinks, Bathtubs, Shower drainsModel DM138The DM138with 14PRWLK, 14” Polyethylene ReelDM1251/6 HP Motor230 rpmPulley Drive8” Reel1/4” x 37’ Cable2-Year WarrantyIntegrated HandleContinuous WeldUni-body FrameUSES:1-1/4” to 2” lines,Residential,Sinks, Bathtubs, Shower drainsModel DM125The DM125with 8PRK, 8” Polyethylene ReelThe DM125with 8PRK, 8” Polyethylene ReelThe DM138with 14PRWLK, 14” Polyethylene ReelDuracable® Machine ManualOrder Entry: 800-247-4081 l Answer Line: 877-257-17816Model DM125FrameThe frame on the DM125 is a continuously welded uni-body frame made of high strength aluminum alloy with a heavy-duty casted front bearing mount. Non-marring rubber pads do not leave marks on the customers’ floors.Head BearingThe DM125 is equipped with a heavy-duty casted self-aligning head bearing, which makes sure that the reel stays properly aligned when it spins. This increases the life span, making for a longer-lasting reel. The head bearing holds the reel in place, as well as allowing quick release of the reel. Just loosen the two “T” bolts and everything slides off for fast reel changes.Electrical WiringThe machine’s electrical wiring is located in the conduit box on the right side of the motor, housing both the forward/reverse switch and the air foot switch. There is an optional on/off toggle switch that can be used in place of the air foot pedal. The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is built into the electrical cord for added safety. The GFCI protects the operator against electrical shock or electrocution. A great feature is a switch guard that protects the forward/reverse switch from accidentally being bumped and going into reverse.RPM/DriveThe DM125 has a 1/6 HP motor, operates at 230 rpm and has a heavy-duty 20-amp switch. The machine can be purchased with 300 rpm, however, caution is recommended at this speed.ManeuverabilityThe DM125 can operate in the upright position at just the right angle to avoid tipping over.

Every year many people are injured or killed by electricity. Most of these accidents could have been prevented with simple precautions and careful use of electricity. Following are some tips to help avoid electrical accidents. Read through this information. Be sure you understand its importance. If you have questions or feel you may have a potential electrical hazard, tell your supervisor or call a qualified electrician immediately.General Electrical GuidelinesRemember, electricity is always trying to make a circuit. It can travel through an electric wire, metal pipe, or even your body. Electrical shock can occur when you come in contact with an energized electrical unit and a good conductor. Shock can range from a slight tingle to a severe burn, or death by electrocution.Electrical accidents happen in everyday situations. Most electrocutions occur in a wet environment or when an electrical product is being repaired or installed. Think about, and take precautions against, potentially dangerous situations. • When disconnecting electrical cords, pull on the plug rather than the cord to avoid damage.• Use rubber gloves and rubber boots or insulated shoes to protect yourself, especially if you are in a wet or damp environment.• Before using this machine, make sure a properly grounded, three-prong, 110-volt outlet is available. Where it is not available, use a three-prong adapter and connect the grounding lug to a known ground. Never cut off a grounding prong to fit a two-prong outlet. This eliminates the ground protection.Electrical ProceduresDo not leave the machine plugged in when not in use. Even with the switch off, a machine can shock or electrocute its handler. The machine must be grounded to protect the operator from shock. This is accomplished by using the Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter Cord (GFCI) to ensure proper grounding.Check electrical cords before each use for signs of damage. Repair or replace cords which are pinched, cracked, frayed, or worn. Remember, the GFCI offers no protection against electric shock for wiring preceding it in the system. Your GFCI is direct-wired to the machine, plug the GFCI into the power source receptacle.Discontinue use and repair immediately any machine that causes the slightest shock or is damaged in any way. It could lead to a serious electrical shock or electrocution. Inspect the machine daily for wear or damage that might expose live electrical parts.Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI)A GFCI works by detecting changes in electrical current flow. It breaks the circuit before serious injury can occur. For your protection, heed the “DANGER” warning on the machine cover and use the GFCI cord. The GFCI must be tested before each use. Use the following procedure:• Insert the unit into a 110-volt, AC-grounded receptacle;• Push the “test” button in - the red indicator light should go off;• Push the “reset” button in - if the red indicator light goes on, the unit is ready for use;• Do not use the unit if the light does not go on when reset;• Do not use the unit if the indicator light remains on when the test button is pushed.Extension Cords• Use extension cords only when necessary.• Position cords in use to prevent tripping hazards. Do not place them in areas where they can be damaged by traffic.• Avoid coiling extension cords during use to prevent possible overheating of the cord.• Discard cracked or damaged cords.• The following cord sizes and lengths should be observed according to the National Electrical Code when using this machine:• 12 gauge wire - 75’ of cord, including 25’ of GFCI cord.• 14 gauge wire - 50’ of cord, including 25’ of GFCI cord.• Cord sizes smaller than 12 gauge should not be used for 3/4 HP motors. Larger gauge cords can run greater distances, but are not practical because of their size and weight.• To protect your motor, observe the guidelines mentioned. If you have a run more than 75’, use a generator to reduce your cord length from the power source to a working distance within these guidelines.Overhead Power Lines• When working outdoors, keep clear from overhead power lines in all directions.• Check the location of power lines before using a ladder. Use approved ladders made of non-conductive material.• Never place a ladder where it can slide into a power line.• When carrying or moving a ladder or equipment, lower it to avoid touching a power line.• Never assume that a wire is safe to touch.Model DM125 & Model DM138www.duracable.com l sales@duracable.com 21How to Splice DuraFlex Cable1. Cut a few inches off of each cable end and remove any burrs with a grinding disk or file.2. Spray Loctite® Primer in and around the cable end and splice core to thoroughly remove grease and grime.3. Apply Loctite Retaining Compound to splice core.4. Insert splice core into cable one turn. 8. Continue turning and the cable ends will meet at the center of the splice core.7. Place vise grips on free cable end and turn counterclockwise.6. Align other piece of cable onto splice core.5. Apply Loctite Retaining Compound to other end of splice core.How to Bond End Fittings to DuraFlex CableYou can attach end fittings and splice cores to DuraFlex cable using a chemical bonding process, which means you can make quick cable repairs on the job—without welding. With Loctite Primer and Loctite Retaining Compound, you can quickly create a dependable bond that is as strong as a conventional weld. Please note that these products are not the same thread-locking compounds available in hardware stores and plumbing-supply houses, they are heavy-duty, permanent-bonding compounds made especially for jobs such as bonding cable fittings.1. Cut the cable end and remove any burrs with a grinding disk or file.2. Spray Loctite Primer in and around the cable end to thoroughly remove grease and grime.3. Spray Loctite Primer on the end fitting to thoroughly remove grease and grime.4. Apply Loctite Retaining Compound to the end fitting.5. Using (EW) Wrench, screw the fitting into the cable end until fitting is totally sealed.6. The Retaining Compound will be fully bonded to the cable in just a few minutes.5 6 7 81 2 34 5 61 2 3 4Duracable® Machine ManualModel DM125 & Model DM138Order Entry: 800-247-4081 l Answer Line: 877-257-178122NotesModel DM125 & Model DM138www.duracable.com l sales@duracable.com 23NotesDuracable Manufacturing Company300 Ashworth RoadWest Des Moines, Iowa 50265Order Entry: 800-247-4081Answer Line: 877-257-1781www.duracable.comsales@duracable.comNovember 2012 #DM125MM
