microDrain™ Inspection System
Pre-Operation Inspection
WARNING
Before each use, inspect your microDrain System
camera and reel and correct any problems to re-
duce the risk of serious injury from electrical shock
or other causes and prevent machine damage.
1. Confirm that the power is off and if used with a cam-
era control unit (CCU) other than the MicroEXPLOR-
ER Camera monitor confirm that the CCU is not
connected to the unit. Inspect the system cable and
connectors for damage or modification.
2. Clean any dirt, oil or other contamination from the
microDrain System to aid in inspection and to prevent
the unit from slipping from your grip while transporting
or using.
3. Inspect the microDrain System for any broken, worn,
missing, misaligned or binding parts, or any other
condition which might prevent safe, normal operation.
Confirm that the unit is properly assembled. Make
sure that the drum turns freely. Inspect the pushrod
for any cuts, breaks, kinks or ruptures.
4. Inspect any other equipment being used per its in-
structions to make sure it is in good usable condition.
5. If any problems are found, do not use the unit until the
problems are corrected.
Work Area and Equipment
Set Up
WARNING
Set up the microDrain System and work area ac-
cording to these procedures to reduce the risk of in-
jury from electrical shock, fire, and other causes,
and to prevent damage to the microDrain System.
Always wear eye protection to protect your eyes
against dirt and other foreign objects.
1. Check work area for:
Adequate lighting.
Flammable liquids, vapors or dust that may ignite.
If present, do not work in area until sources have
been identified and corrected. The microDrain
System is not explosion proof. Electrical connec-
tions can cause sparks.
Clear, level, stable dry place for machine and op-
erator. Do not use the machine while standing in wa-
ter. If needed, remove the water from the work
area.
Clear path to electrical outlet, if used for monitor,
that does not contain any potential sources of dam-
age for the power cord.
2. Inspect the work to be done If possible, determine the
drain access point(s), size(s) and length(s), pres-
ence of drain cleaning chemicals or other chemicals,
etc. If chemicals are present, it is important to under-
stand the specific safety measures required to work
around those chemicals. Contact the chemical man-
ufacturer for required information.
If needed, remove fixture (water closet, sink, etc.) to
allow access.
3. Determine the correct equipment for the application.

4. Make sure all equipment has been properly inspected.
5. Evaluate the work area and determine if any barriers
are needed to keep bystanders away. Bystanders
can distract the operator during use. If working near
traffic, erect cones or other barriers to alert drivers.
Setting Up The microDrain System
Connections
If using the microDrain Reel with a microEXPLORER
Camera monitor, no additional connections beyond those
described in the assembly section are needed when set-
ting up the unit for an inspection.
When using with SeeSnake camera control units (CCU’s),
unwrap the system cable from the cord wrap on the
microDrain Reel case. Attach the system cable connector
to the matching connector on the CCU. Align the guide pin
on the cable connector with the guide socket in the CCU
connector and push the cable connector straight in. A
ridge molded into the outside of the cable connector will
point up when the guides are properly aligned. Tighten the
