- Navigate Clogs: When the cable encounters a clog, allow the rotating cutter head to work through the obstruction. Apply gentle, consistent pressure. Do not force the cable, as this can cause kinking or damage.
- Observe Cable: The open-case drum allows you to monitor the remaining cable length and observe for any tangling or kinking.
