MILWAUKEE® Introduces a CABLE DRIVE Assembly for the M18 FUEL™ SWITCH PACK™ Sectional Drum System

Milwaukee Tool announces a new accessory, CABLE DRIVE, for the groundbreaking M18 FUEL™ Freestanding Drain Cleaners, the first drain cleaning solution that combines the benefits of sectional and drum machines to create the single most versatile and mobile machine on the market.

THE SWITCH PACK™ CABLE DRIVE Assembly provides users with the ability to automatically feed and retract cables through 32 mm to 110 mm drain lines at up to 4.5 – 6 m per minute.

The SWITCH PACK CABLE DRIVE Assembly quickly attaches to any SWITCH PACK drum with the mounting plate installed. A twist lock feature allows the CABLE DRIVE assembly to be easily swapped between drums. This means users only need one CABLE DRIVE Assembly for all the SWITCH PACK Drums they own.

A ratcheting lever automatically adjusts for MILWAUKEE®  8 mm x 23 m, 10 mm x 15 m, 13 mm x 15 m inner core cables and 16 mm x 15 m open wind cables. The assembly is equipped with a RAPID STOP button that releases the steel bearings to provide a quick way to release the cable once a blockage is reached, preventing the cable from binding.
