Installation Notes

This tool is intended for use by licensed plumbers or qualified drain service technicians. Before removing a drum trap plug, shut off the water supply and confirm the drain line is not under pressure. Use appropriate personal protective equipment when working with older cast iron systems, as corroded fittings may release debris or trapped water upon removal. Apply thread sealant to the plug threads before reinstallation to ensure a proper seal.
