that the cable outlet is within 3' (1 m) of
the drain access. Greater distances from

cable assembly twisting or kinking. If the
FlexShaft Machine cannot be placed with
the cable outlet within 3' (1 m) of the drain
access, extend the drain access with sim-
ilar sized pipe and fittings (see Figure 5).
