Well, Well, you just never know what you might bring back :D

One of my landlords I do work for has a K-380 and they try to do 4" Main lines with it because it say`s it can on the box....rotflmao :killingme:

I get a call saying "HELP WE BROKE A CABLE OFF" :killingme:


They haven't learned anything yet as they are still using the K-380 to do 4" main lines with (((ROOTS)))

The K-380 specifically states that it can do up to 4" lines SOFT STOPPAGES ONLY, NO ROOTS. I love my little K-380 for kitchen and floor drains, I even have snagged some minor roots with it. But I always grab my K-60 for 4" lines, and the saw-cutter head for roots.

I took my 380 out of the trailer as I never seem to use it anymore.
I walk by it every day and just :wave2:at it.

i guarantee you, you will be using it and thanking me all the way to the bank:thumbup2:
