Goriltz GO 4000 drain cleaning machine is used in commercial and industrial settings for drain maintenance and unclogging. It finds extensive use by professional plumbers and maintenance personnel for efficiently clearing clogged drains, sewer lines and pipes by deploying a variety of cutting and cleaning attachments. This Goriltz jetter prevents costly and disruptive plumbing emergencies, ensuring the smooth flow of wastewater and maintaining sanitation and hygiene in buildings.

Working Mechanism:

• The machine is positioned near the access point to the plumbing or drainage system being serviced. It typically consists of a frame with wheels for portability and a hose reel to manage the flexible cleaning cable.
• The operator selects an appropriate cable attachment or auger head based on the nature and location of the blockage. These attachments can vary widely and include cutting blades, corkscrews and other specialised tools.
• It is powered by a robust engine, often a gasoline or diesel-powered one, which provides the necessary power for cable rotation and water pressure generation.
• The operator feeds the chosen cable attachment into the affected drain or pipe. The flexible cable is designed to navigate twists, turns, and obstacles within the plumbing system.
• The machine engages the cable and starts rotating it. The rotation of the cable, combined with the chosen attachment, dislodges and breaks apart the blockage within the pipe. This can include tree roots, grease, debris or other obstructions.
• Some drain cleaning machines, like the GO 4000, may have the option to use high-pressure water jetting in conjunction with cable rotation. This feature helps break up and flush away stubborn residues and debris.
• The operator monitors the progress of the cable as it advances through the plumbing system. Control mechanisms on the machine allow the operator to adjust cable rotation and water pressure as needed.
• As the cable advances and the blockage is broken apart, water or other liquids may be used to flush away the dislodged material. The cable continues to work through the length of the pipe until the blockage is cleared.
• Once the blockage is cleared, the cable is retracted, and any remaining debris is flushed out of the system.
• After the job is completed, the machine is cleaned, and the cable and attachments are inspected and maintained for future use.
