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.

1See Figure 11. Raise the squeegee tool off the floor, then unsnap the Center Latch (AA) on the squeegee tool.

2Remove the Tension Straps (BB).

3Slip the rear blade off the alignment pins.

4The squeegee blade has 4 working edges as shown below. Turn the blade so a clean, undamaged edge faces toward the front of the machine. Replace the blade if all 4 edges are nicked, torn or worn to a large radius.

5Install the blade, following the steps in reverse order and adjust the squeegee tilt.

To Reverse or Replace the Front Squeegee Blade...

SQUEEGEE ADJUSTMENT

There are two squeegee tool adjustments possible, angle and height.

Adjusting the Squeegee Angle

Adjust the squeegee angle whenever a blade is reversed or replaced, or if the squeegee is not wiping the floor dry.

1Park the machine on a flat, even surface.

2Lower the squeegee, move the machine ahead slightly and adjust the squeegee tilt and height using the Squeegee Tilt Adjust Knob (22) and Squeegee Height Adjust Knobs (28) so that the rear squeegee blade touches the floor evenly across its entire width and is bent over slightly as shown in the squeegee cross section.
