Operation
Squeegee (Fig. 6/1)
The squeegee is equipped with sealing
strips and is lowered and raised by
means of a servomotor. The angle of
the squeegee can be adjusted so that it
applies pressure to the floor optimally.
Squeegee rollers (Fig. 6/2)
The squeegee rollers guide the squee-
gee over the floor and limit the pressing
force.
Suction hose (Fig. 6/3)
The suction hose connects the squee-
gee and recovery tank to each other.
Star-sharped knobs for squeegee
After removing the knobs, the squee-
gee can be removed in order to
Squeegee sealing strips (Fig. 6/5)
The sealing strips on the squeegee are
made of PU. They are fixed to the
squeegee by tightening straps and lugs
which project through breakouts in the
sealing strips. The sealing strips are
symmetrical so that all four edges can
be used by turning them before the
sealing strips are worn out and have to
be changed.
Deflection rollers, rear (Fig. 6/6)
The deflection rollers prevent damage
when cleaning against walls. They also
simplify driving adjacent to walls.
Deflecting bar (Fig. 6/7)
The deflecting bar prevents getting
caught by obstructions.
Ball-head rods (Fig. 6/8)
The two ball-head rods ensure the
squeegee remains in the correct posi-
tion to draw up the waste water even
when driving around corners.
Hanger (Fig. 6/9)
The squeegee hangs on a servomotor
and is lowered or raised by it. The
spring serves as a buffer and gives way
in the case of obstacles.
Angle adjustment (Fig. 6/10)
The angle adjustment is used to set the
squeegee so that it is held tipped slight-
ly towards the rear, thus ensuring both
sealing strips make correct contact with
the floor.
Pivoting axle (Fig. 6/11)
When adjusting the angle, the squee-
gee is turned about the pivoting axle.
