FAQs

How do I use the claw mechanism?

Insert the tool, push the handle to open the claw, position the claw around the obstruction, release the handle to grip, and pull out.

What materials is the tool made of?

The tool is made from durable Iron and PP (Polypropylene).

Can this tool be used on toilets?

Yes, it can be used on toilets, but be mindful of the toilet bowl's shape and any potential for scratching.

How do I clean the tool after use?

Rinse the tool with warm, soapy water and allow it to dry completely before storing.

What is the length of the tool?

The tool's extra-long length allows it to reach deep into drains and pipes.

Can I use this tool to remove roots in pipes?

The tool is designed for small obstructions like hair, debris, and small objects. It may not be effective on roots.

What should I do if the tool breaks?

Inspect the tool for any damage. Depending on the damage, it may be possible to repair it. If it is beyond repair, you will need to replace it.

Troubleshooting

Claw does not open or close properly.

Check for any obstructions in the claw mechanism. Clean the claw and ensure the spring mechanism moves freely. If the issue persists, the tool may be damaged and need to be replaced.

Tool gets stuck in the drain.

Gently maneuver the tool, rotating it while pulling slowly. Avoid forcing it. If severely stuck, try using a different angle or approach. If this fails, consider professional assistance to avoid damaging your plumbing.

Claw does not grip the obstruction.

Ensure the claw is fully open when attempting to grab the obstruction. Try rotating the tool to find the best grip. If the object is too large or the obstruction is compacted, the tool may not be able to retrieve it.
