Safety Notes
1.1 Intended use
This device may only be used in accordance with the regulations as stated.
Universally deployable for the cleaning of all pipes with a Ø 10 – 75 mm (=
Tab. 1) pipe diameter.
Elimination of all obstructions in the drain pipes of sinks, hand wash
basins, showers, bath tubs and toilets.
1.2 Special safety instructions
If a drill is being used, the electrical installation must be checked at the
workstation before putting into operation the pipe cleaning device. For this
purpose please read the information in the operating instructions of the
drill! Accident prevention regulation
Attention! If operating a drill, it is imperative that the crank handle
is removed! Never use a drill without an electronic speed control – danger of
accidents! Only use the counterclockwise rotation of the drill, when the
spiral is secured in the pipe or in the event of its withdrawal!
Attention! Commence cleaning work with low rotational speed and increase if
required!
Description
The ROSPI H+E Plus hand pipe cleaners are designed both for manual crank
operation as well as for electrically driven operation by means of using a
commercially available drill (not included in the scope of supplies). The
flexible spiral, fitted with an extended operating head, is particularly
suitable for using in narrow pipe bends and elbow joints. Cleaning work in the
sanitary area can be carried out without the removal of sink sieves or
sanitary traps.
The closed, impact-resistant plastic spiral container prevents the
accumulation of dirt in the working area.

Overview
- Crank handle
- Spiral with extended operating head
- Spiral clamping chuck / locking screw (ROSPI 6 H+E Plus)
- Spiral pot
Operating
If operating with a drill the crank handle must be removed, the central adapter-retaining pin (hexagon) should be mounted in the drill (Picture 2 + 3).
- Pull the spiral out of the spiral container and insert it into the pipe, which is to be cleaned, until resistance (obstruction) becomes noticeable.
- There must still be approx ca. 20 – 30 cm of spiral between the cleaning device and the pipe opening. Tighten the spiral chuck!
- Hold on to the handle on the cleaning device with one hand. Turn the spiral container to the right with the other hand with the help of the crank handle (Picture 1), or slowly start an electric, infinitely variable drill in motion in a clockwise direction (Picture 4).
- Increase the rotational speed according to the cleaning problem.
- Push the cleaning device with the rotating spiral at intervals against the obstruction.
- Once the spiral has penetrated further into the pipe, stop the rotation (switch machine off), loosen the spiral chuck, pull the spiral out of the spiral container again by approx. 30 cm, tighten the spiral chuck and work again at intervals with the rotating spiral against the obstruction.
- This process should be repeated for such periods until the obstruction is eliminated.
Taking out of service
- The spiral is now pulled out, in a counterclockwise rotation, section by section from the pipe and once the clamping chuck has been loosened, pushed back into the container. Approx. 10 – 15 cm of the spiral remain outside.
- If operating a drill disconnect the power plug from the mains.
Care and Maintenance
It is sensible to remove moisture and dirt arising from the cleaning of pipes
from the spiral before it is pushed back into the spiral container. If this is
not possible, the spiral should be completely pulled out of the container at
regular intervals, cleaned and preserved with “ROWONAL”. New spirals must be
bent at right angles to a length of approx. 10 cm at the rear end of the
spiral, before being inserted into the container.”
Attention! Disconnect the power plug from the mains prior to all
maintenance and upkeep work!
Do not use any cleaning agents containing solvents for cleaning of the plastic
parts!
