MAINTENANCE
TO ADJUST FRONT SQUEEGEE
DEFLECTION
1.Choose a smooth, level surface. Lower the front squeegee and deck and drive forward at least 2 feet (60cm) until the desired brush pressure is obtained.
2.With the squeegee down, stop the machine. Do not allow machine to roll back.
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing machine; stop on level surface, turn off machine and remove key.
3.Observe the amount of squeegee deflection. It should deflect 1/4 in. (6.25mm) across the entire width of the squeegee.
4.To increase the squeegee deflection, loosen the two knobs on the linkage and lower the squeegee and bracket, then retighten. To decrease the deflection, loosen the two knobs on the linkage and raise the squeegee and bracket, then retighten.
5.Turn on the key switch. Raise, then lower squeegee and deck assembly. Drive forward at least 2 feet (60cm) until the desired brush pressure is obtained.
6.Repeat steps 2 through 4 until deflection of 1/4 in. (6.25mm) is reached.
