Detailed Description

The RIDGID K-750 Drum Machine is designed around real-world drain cleaning demands: fast setup, confident feeding, and durable construction that stands up to harsh use. From the moment you arrive on site, the K-750 minimizes friction in your workflow—roll in, attach a tool and go. The AUTOFEED® control is the productivity centerpiece: with a simple lever push, you can advance or retrieve cable smoothly at up to 20 ft/min. That speed keeps you efficient while the 200 RPM cable rotation supplies the cutting action required for stubborn obstructions.

The drum is engineered for longevity. Unlike thin shells that deform over time, the K-750’s tough, corrosion-resistant drum resists dents and splitting and wipes clean for fast turnaround between jobs. Inside, the removable drum design speeds maintenance and cable swaps. The machine accommodates both 5/8″ and 3/4″ cable sizes, so you can tailor your setup to the line diameter, length, or debris type—choose 5/8″ cable for longer reaches and 3/4″ for added cutting stiffness.

Power comes from a robust 1/2 HP induction motor that delivers steady torque with low noise. The balanced frame and transport wheels make it simple to load and unload from trucks and navigate tight spaces indoors. With audible and visual operation signals, techs get intuitive feedback when the cutter engages heavy material, supporting safe, precise control.

In summary, the RIDGID K-750 provides reliable, high-torque cleaning in a portable package. The key benefit is faster, cleaner, and safer cable handling with AUTOFEED®, backed by the durability pros expect from RIDGID.
