REPLACING SQUEEGEE BLADES
The squeegee is fitted with two drying blades, a rear and a front blade, as specified in the previous paragraph.
Each blade has 4 edges that can be used and rotated 4 times before being replaced, unless one of the edges is torn.
For better drying performance, make sure the edge of the rear blade is not worn out. If the blade is worn out, rotate it or
replace it.
