The Sewerooter T-3 combines large capacity
with great portability. The drum holds 100 ft.
of 1/2" or 75 ft. of 9/16"cable, which is fed into the line with
a smooth-operating variable speed Power
Cable Feed attachment. The machine rolls on
big 8" wheels, has a tough but lightweight
tubular frame, and a tall folding handle with
a truck loading wheel that makes it easy to
move around. And the passive brake holds
the machine in position on the job or in
your truck.
Other important features include a quickly
removable drum and a 1/3 hp motor ( or 1/2hp) with
capacitor. Like all General’s floor models, the
Sewerooter T-3 offers you the safety of a fully
grounded electrical circuit, a pneumatic foot
pedal and reverse switch with an "Off” position,
plus a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter.
