5.2 Building Pressure

  1. Ensure the selected attachment head is securely fastened to the device.
  2. Turn on the electric air pump by pressing the designated switch.
  3. Monitor the pressure gauge. Allow the device to build pressure to the recommended level for your specific drain (e.g., 5 Bar for toilets, 3-4 Bar for sinks/floor drains). This typically takes 20-30 seconds.
  4. Once the desired pressure is reached, turn off the air pump switch.

5.3 Unclogging the Drain

  1. Position the attachment head firmly into the drain opening, ensuring a tight seal. For toilets, insert the flexible head deep into the drain port.
  2. Hold the device firmly with both hands to brace for recoil.
  3. Pull the trigger to release the high-pressure gas in a single, controlled burst.
  4. Check if the drain is unclogged. If not, repeat the steps above several times as needed.

6. Maintenance

  • After each use, clean the attachment heads and the device body with water and mild soap.
  • Ensure the device is completely dry before storing.
  • Store all components in the provided tool bag in a cool, dry place.
  • Regularly check the rubber seal ring for wear and tear. Replace if necessary to maintain optimal performance.

7. Troubleshooting

  • Device not building pressure: Check if the air cylinder is securely attached and if the chosen attachment head forms a tight seal with the drain. Ensure the internal gasket is properly seated.
  • Weak pressure discharge: Verify the device is fully charged. Ensure no air leaks from connections.
  • Ineffective unclogging: Ensure the correct attachment head is used for the drain type. Increase pressure to the recommended maximum for stubborn clogs, if safe to do so. Repeat the unclogging process multiple times.
  • Splash-back during use: Ensure the attachment head is inserted deeply and forms a complete seal over the drain opening.
