Ridgid K-750 Drum Machine with One Pair of Gloves, AUTOFEED, Standard 5/8 Inch ToolSet, & C-27, 75 Ft. x 5/8 Inch Cable

Description

Complying with municipal clean water codes requires clearing stubborn sewer lines fast, which the Ridgid K-750 AUTOFEED Drum Machine delivers on main lateral backups. This 115-volt drum machine spins 5/8-inch C-27 cable to clear three-inch to eight-inch sewer lines. The automatic feed drives cable forward and backward. The heavy drum demands ramp loading.

A tubular steel transport cart with kickstand wheels supports the corrosion-resistant polyethylene drum shell. A 1/2-HP induction motor pulls 6.8 full-load amps at 115 volts, spinning the drum at two hundred RPM. The two-way AUTOFEED drive advances cable at rates up to twenty-two feet per minute. Complete machine weight sits at 114 lbs with seventy-five feet of C-27 cable, measuring 35 inches high by 24 inches wide.

Drum Rotation Torque Bench Metrics

Bench testing confirms the drum drive delivers one hundred sixty foot-pounds of torque at two hundred free RPM before motor stall. Under heavy simulated root drag on seventy-five feet of C-27 cable, the AUTOFEED drive maintains eighteen feet per minute advance velocity without slippage. Cable torque bind sensors demonstrate zero inner core cage distortion during sudden stall resistance. Motor casing temperature climbs twenty-five degrees Fahrenheit after thirty minutes of continuous running. Drum bearing runout remains under 0.0016 inches under full cable weight.

Sewer Lateral Usability Maintenance Directives

The stair climber tracks on the cart frame assist two workers when moving the loaded machine into basements. The AUTOFEED lever operates with heavy leather sewer gloves. However, do not purchase this 5/8-inch drum machine for small 1-1/2-inch sink drains, roof vents, or fragile copper waste piping.

• Flush drum interior with water after every job to wash out sewer solids and grit.
• Grease AUTOFEED drive bearings once a month using water-resistant lithium grease.
• Inspect C-27 cable couplings and core wire once a week for fatigue cracking.
