I ordered a new K-60 today, with 150' large and 50' small. If there isn't still a backlog, I should have it in ten days to two weeks.

I am looking forward to your review.It would be interesting to hear a balanced even tempered individual feels about it once he gets used to it;)

I doubt that supply house has ever sold a K-60. I've never seen or heard of anyone in this area using one. General is popular, and the same supply house sells both. In fact, I bought a General from them about 31 years ago.

Only forty pounds? I must need a little more exercise. Feels like more.

It's here. I'm ready. Where's the calls? (I've had about ten in the last two weeks while I waited for it to arrive.)

I checked it all out and I think that, with the help I've gotten by reading every post about the K-60 on the forum that I can handle it. I'll update with how it works out in the field soon . . .

according to the catalog. the k-60 with the 12' rear rear guide hose, glove and pin is 41# shipping weight.

-12# for the rear guide and .5 for the glove and pin.

I found 1 and only1 drain cleaner in my area that uses the K60. I asked him how he liked it. He kind of laughed and said he couldn't believe more guys don't use them. said he hates running a drum and he has run plenty of them.
Some day I'll break down and get one.

I felt the same way about it. It does feel a little heavier than 40 lbs. Check out my roundup video submission and make a cart like mine and the weight won't be an issue anymore.

Or, now that I'm ready to clean drains again, I could change it to Pee Yew.

I never was very husky, and I really could stand to lose about 30#. So, the machine would only seem like ten pounds . . .
