Mini-Rooter Light Weight with a Long Reach

With 75 feet of 3/8" cable and a 1/3 hp motor, the Mini-Rooter clears lines from roof-top to basement, including kitchen, bath and laundry drains. You can do heavier work in 4" lines when the Mini-Rooter is equipped with a 1/2" cable.

This inexpensive, light weight machine has lots of time-saving features. For instance, you can remove the drum in seconds for more portability or switch to a different diameter cable--with no mess and no lost time. A distributor tube inside the drum allows you to feed cable in and out without chucking and releasing the cable every few feet – so you finish quicker. An optional power cable feed gives you better feeding and retracting control.

For small drain work, you can order your Mini-Rooter with a “J” Drum or a Dual Drum for handling smaller, more flexible cables. An optional Mini-Rooter dolly lets you roll the machine to and from the job on 8" semi-pneumatic wheels.

Some Mini-Rooter safety features: A foot pedal that uses air pressure to start and stop the machine, with no electrical wiring between pedal and motor, a ground fault circuit interrupter, and a high impact plastic guard covering the motor pulley.
