1. Select proper chain knocker for the con-

ditions.

Figure 8 – Chain Knockers

Chain knockers are sized based on col-

lar inside diameter and are designed for

specific cable sizes. ¼" chain knockers

are used on ¼" cable, etc. Do not use

a larger size chain knocker on a smaller

cable (for instance

5

/16 " on ¼"). See

Figure 8 and Collar Distance Chart.

Chain knockers without carbide cutting

tips can be used in common pipe types.

These chain knockers work well in grease

and similar blockages.

Chain knockers with carbide cutting tips

are used for removing scale from the

inside of the pipe and can be used for

roots. Carbide cutting tips are used for

aggressive cleaning and could damage

pipe, especially softer materials (such

as plastics and Orangeburg), thin walled

pipe, or if the chain knocker is kept in one

position for an extended time. See Figure

9, Chain Knocker Selection Chart.

Do not use chain knockers for cleaning in

glass, ceramic, porcelain or similar ma-

terial fixtures or pipes. They could be

damaged.

2. Figure 10 shows a schematic of proper

chain knocker installation and adjustment.

There are two key points when installing/

adjusting chain knockers.

Coll

ar Distance: Set the chain knocker

collars the correct distance apart (“Collar

Distance”) to allow the chains to spread

an appropriate amount when rotated to

clean the pipe walls. Collar Distance var-

ies based on cable size and pipe diam-

eter, and is generally set using a spacer

made from sheath (“Collar Spacer”). If

additional flexibility is required to navigate

a bend, the collar spacer can be removed

and the collar distance can be set with a

tape measure. Operating without a collar

spacer makes it more likely for the cable

to flip over in use and be damaged. Do

not operate carbide cutters without a

collar spacer to reduce risk of cable

damage.

Exposed Cable: Minimize the amount

of exposed cable (cable not covered by

sheath). The more exposed cable there

is, the more likely the cable will flip over

in use and be damaged. Exposed cable

should be limited to no more than ¼"

(6 mm), and is set with a bushing

made from sheath (“Knocker Bushing”).

Exposed cable varies with the amount

of cable out of the drum. The more cable

out of the drum, the smaller the exposed

cable. Exposed cable may need to be set

with cable out of the drum for best results,

Sheath is supplied with

the drain cleaner

and is available as a service part to allow

configuration as needed for your specific

application. Only use RIDGID FlexShaft

Drain Cleaner sheath of the correct size

for the cable. Any time sheath is cut, it

should be cut cleanly and squarely. Do

not damage the cable when cutting the

sheath.

3. Chain knockers are retained to the cable

with set screws that use a supplied 3 mm

hex key. Loosen set screws and remove

chain knocker, spacer and bushing from

cable.

4. Inspect the sheath end for damage or

wear.

The sheath end should be square

and clean. If needed, the sheath end can

be trimmed slightly.
