SQUEEGEE

The squeegee assembly channelswaterintothe vacuum

fan suction.The frontblade channelsthe water,and the

rearblade wipesthe floor.

Check the squeegee bladesfordamage and weardaily.

Rotate or replace eitherof the squeegee bladesif the

leading edge istorn orworn half-waythrough the thickness

of the blade.

The squeegee can be adjusted forleveling and deflection.

The deflection and leveling of the squeegee blades should

The squeegee assembly can be removed fromthe

squeegee pivot to preventdamage during transportof the

machine.

3.Drivethe machine forward, then turnthe machine

poweroff.

4.Lookat the deflection of the squeegee blade,over

the full length of the squeegee blade.

5. If the deflection isnot the same overthe full

length

of the blade, turnthe squeegee leveling knob
