SQUEEGEE MAINTENANCE
If the squeegee leaves narrow streaks of water, the blades may be dirty or damaged. Remove the squeegee, rinse it under warm water and inspect
the squeegee blades. Reverse or replace the blades if they are cut, torn, wavy or worn.
To Reverse or Replace the Rear Squeegee Wiping Blade...
1
Unsnap the center Latch on the squeegee tool.
2
Remove the Wing Nut from each end of the squeegee, then remove the Tension Straps.
3
Slip the rear blade off the Alignment Pins.
4
The rear squeegee blade has 4 working edges. Turn the blade so a clean, undamaged edge points toward the front of the machine and
against the floor. Replace the blade if all 4 edges are nicked, torn or worn.
5
Install the blade, following steps 1-3 in reverse order.
