SIDE BLADE MAINTENANCE
The side blades' function is to channel the waste water to the squeegee, helping contain the water within the machine's cleaning path. During
normal use the blades will wear in time. The operator will notice a small amount of water leaking out underneath the side blades. A height
adjustment can easily be made to lower the blades so that all the water can be picked up by the squeegee.
To reverse or replace the scrub system side blades(s)...
See Figure 4-8. Loosen the (2) side blade Removal Knobs (15) (2 per side) and pull the Side Blade Assemblies (AA) slightly forward and then
1
off from the scrub deck.
2
DISC - Remove all the hardware that holds the blades to the blade housing assembly.
CYLINDRICAL - Unlatch the retaining strap (AC) and remove the strap and blade.
3
Replace the blades as a set if they are nicked, torn or worn beyond their ability to be adjusted.
4
Reinstall the blade housing assemblies onto the machine and adjust the blade for proper contact to the floor when the brush deck is placed in
the scrub position.
SIDE BLADE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
1
See Figure 4-8. The side blade assembly studs have leveling Adjuster Collars (19), that are to be raised or lowered to compensate for blade
wear.
To adjust, remove the Blade Assemblies (AA) from the Scrub Deck (AB) to access the Adjuster Collars (19). Adjustment Tip: The blade's
2
Removal Knobs (15) can be loosened with blades left on and the Adjuster Collars (19) rotated by reaching under the blade assembly housing.
Turn the Adjuster Collars (19) (Up or Down) to where the blades just fold over enough when scrubbing that all the waste water is contained
3
inside the blades.
Note: Make small adjustments to obtain good blade wiping. Do not lower the blades too much to where they fold over excessively and cause
unneeded blade wear. Make sure Blade Assembly (AA) is between Adjuster Collars (19) and Knobs (15).
