An all-round sewer and drain cleaning machine, capable of cleaning lines up to 250 mm wide,is set to take the municipal sector by storm.
The Ridgid K-15000SP Sectional Machine, available from Dowson & Dobson Industrial (D&D), is described as the ‘Rolls Royce’ of drain cleaning machines. It is ideal for root cutting and major blockages, with a 1 500 W motor and five 4.6 m sections of cable. The unique, easy-to-use instant-acting cable clutch maximises operator control. When the handle is pulled down, the cable spins at 600 rpm, and stops instantly when the handle is released. An advantage is that the machine can be wheeled to the relevant job site for rapid set-up and a quick turnaround time for any cleaning operation. Its upright frame features large, semi-pneumatic ball bearing wheels and a cable carrier. The Ridgid K-1500SP comes with various accessories and a cable toolkit, which includes straight, funnel and retrieving augers, spade and sharktooth cutters, a toolbox and a pin key. “The low-profile frame design means that this machine will fit most crawl spaces. In addition, one person can easily clean the heaviest blockages, inside or out. The high-speed cleaning action not only gets the job done faster, better too,” comments Kevin Klaff, Actum Group director.Introducing the “Rolls Royce” of drain cleaning machines
