Easy Rooter Junior® Sewer Machine, Flexicore Cables - General

The Easy Rooter Junior drain cleaning machine clears clogged drains in 2″, 3″ and most 4″ drain lines . Ideal for rental customers, the portable drain cleaner spins 1/2″ Flexicore® cable to clear drain lines up to 100 feet long.

A Quick-Grip™ chuck secures the cable during operation. With a just a quarter turn, the chuck tightens firmly on the cable to secure it while the Easy Rooter Junior spins the cable into the line. Then, can be released just as quickly to pull more cable from the drum. It’s faster and easier to use than a thumb screw.

Built for tough rental applications, the reinforced powder coated steel frame is built to take heavy duty use and abuse. A special “roll bar” protects the motor when loading the machine into car trunk. The machine rolls easily to and from the job on 10″ ball bearing wheels. And a passive wheel brake locks the machine in position on the job.

A folding handle quickly locks in place, making it much easier to wheel the Easy Rooter Junior to the job, without sacrificing the compact size needed for easy loading in a car trunk.

Power is supplied by a 1/3 hp capacitor motor with thermal overload protection. A momentary contact reverse switch protects the cable by preventing the operator from running the machine in reverse for more than a few seconds at a time.

Standard safety features include an air actuated foot pedal, ground fault circuit interrupter, safety slip clutch, and instructional video in English, French, and Spanish.
