    Nice video. Two harbor freight drain cleaners?? Must be on sale. LOL. But about the foot switch, it's easy fix. Just locate where the air is leaking (dunk it in water and squeeze), and clean/dry, and seal it with clear silicon caulk. Simple fix and will last a long time. Now about losing snake tips - that can be prevented by fastening a small hose clamp on top of the screw. Now there is no way you will ever lose tip again.

      @@JamesBondJB007 I forgot to mention I am considering the auto-feed model. This is the second time my 4" main drain pipe clogged in about 9 months. Last time the plumber came with his Ridgid machine and charged $200, so I figured I'd buy this model, even though the Ridgid is a more robust machine, but they are very expensive for a home owner so this model is a good compromise. Thanks for any info you can share.

      @@JamesBondJB007 Thanks for the advice...I would imagine the manual feed is fine to buy also. I am honestly on the fence which to get. It is about $150 cheaper w/manual feed. I am also trying to figure where I get the Harbor Freight coupons as I hear many talk about using them. The auto-feed model is $379 so a coupon would be helpful for sure....thanks.

      To be fair to the manufacturer: I checked it afterwards and it was working fine. The person that was using it stepped on the pump too hard, causing it to be deflated.
      Also, it was very easy to disconnect the connectors to the pump switch inside (there’s only two connectors to the switch), and tape them together with black tape. You could then use the knob , for forward and reverse, to turn it on.

      @@Shaikhofilm Not sure that's good idea. Foot switch is easy fix with silicon caulk. Also foot switch is very important for safety and fine control of the drum rotation. If you hit a snag, or some kind of mechanical failure, it can take too long to turn the machine off.
