SQUEEGEE MAINTENANCE
If the squeegee leaves narrow streaks or water, the blades may be dirty or damaged. Remove the squeegee, rinse it under warm water and inspect the blades.
Reverse or replace the blades if they are cut, torn, wavy or worn.
To Reverse or Replace the Rear Squeegee Wiping Blade...
1
See Figure 9. Raise the squeegee assembly off the fl oor, then unsnap the Rear Squeegee Blade Removal Latch (32).
2
Remove the Tension Strap (AA).
3
Slip the rear blade off the alignment pins.
4
The squeegee blade has 4 working edges. Turn the blade so a clean, undamaged edge points toward the front of the machine. Replace the blade if all 4
edges are nicked, torn or worn to a large radius.
5
Install the blade, following the steps in reverse order and adjust the squeegee tilt (31).
To Reverse or Replace the Front Squeegee Blade...
1
Raise the squeegee assembly off the fl oor, then loosen the (2) Thumb Nuts (AB) on top of the squeegee and remove the squeegee assembly from the
mount.
2
Loosen the Front Squeegee Blade Removal Thumb Nut (33), then remove Tension Strap (AC) and blade.
3
The squeegee blade has 4 working edges. Turn the blade so a clean, undamaged edge points toward the front of the machine. Replace the blade if all 4
edges are nicked, torn or worn to a large radius.
4
Install the blade, following the steps in reverse order and adjust the squeegee tilt.
SQUEEGEE ADJUSTMENT
There are two squeegee assembly adjustments possible, tilt and height.
Adjust the squeegee tilt whenever a blade is reversed or replaced, or if the squeegee is not wiping the fl oor dry.
1
Park the machine on a fl at, even surface and lower the squeegee. Then drive the machine forward enough to have the squeegee blades fold over to the
rear.
2
Adjust the squeegee tilt and height using the Squeegee Tilt Adjustment Knob (31) and Squeegee Height Wheel (AD) so that the rear squeegee blade
touches the fl oor evenly across its entire width and is bent over slightly as shown in the squeegee cross section.
