How To Operate The Squeegee
The squeegee wipes the floor while the vacuum motor removes the dirty solution from the floor. Use your hand to lower or raise the squeegee handle. To operate the squeegee, follow this procedure:
1.To lower the squeegee and start the vacuum motor, move the squeegee lever to the right and down. See figure 18.
2.To raise the squeegee, lift the squeegee lever up. See figure 19.
NOTE: The center position lets the vacuum motor continue to run with the squeegee off the floor to avoid drips and also allows you to back up the machine.
