6.2. Mounting and adjusting the squeegee
The squeegee (ref. 6) is responsible for the first phase of drying.
To mount the squeegee on the machine, proceed as follows:
1. make sure the squeegee mount (ref. 2) is raised;
2. insert the suction hose sleeve (ref. 4) fully into the squeegee;
3. slacken the two knobs (ref. 3) at the center of the squeegee;
4. insert the two threaded pins into the slots on the support (ref. 2);
5. fix the squeegee by tightening the two knobs (ref. 3);
6. The squeegee blades scrape the film of water and solution from the floor and prepare the way for
perfect drying. With time, the constant rubbing makes the edge of the blade in contact with the floor
rounded and cracked, reducing the drying efficiency and requiring it to be replaced. The state of wear
should be checked frequently;
7. For perfect drying, the squeegee must be adjusted in such a way that the edge of the rear blade
bends during operation by about 45° with respect to the floor at every point;
8. Adjust the angle of the blade during operation by regulating the height of the two wheels positioned
behind the squeegee (ref. 1).
