The K-40AF Sink Machine is ideal for cleaning small secondary drain lines from 3/4" (20mm) to 2 1/2" (75mm)

• 1/4" (6mm) cables are best for 3/4" (20mm) to 1 1/2" (40mm) lines
• 5/16" (8mm) cables are best for 3/4" (20mm) to 1 1/2" (40mm) lines

The K-40AF sits flat on the floor or countertop and also tips onto its back for easy access to sink drains and bathtubs full of water. The K-40AF practically eliminates job site clean-up thanks to the patented Guide Hose two-way AUTOFEED. It completely contains the rotating cable and eliminates any waste water splashing or spraying.

The K40AF machine is ideal for one hand operation in tight spaces, the guide hose prevents possible damage to sinks, tiles etc from the rotating cable.

K-40AF Features:

• Available with 230v, 175W (50Hz) reversible induction motor delivers enough torque to clear even the toughest blockages
• Premium-quality, compression-wound inner core cable combines strength and flexibility to resist kinking
• Two-piece "twist lock" drum housing will not dent or corrode and allows easy access to the inner drum and cable
• Spins cable at 240 rpm
