4. Open the rear doors.
5. Slide the squeegee from the rear un-
der the lowered holding attachment

four wing nuts (Fig. 9/1).
6. Attach the suction hose to the con-
nection nozzle (Fig. 9/2) of the

Adjusting the squeegee
The squeegee must be set up on a level
floor according to the conditions in
which it is to be used. The squeegee
must stand vertically on the floor (adju-
sted at the factory). The sealing strip
(Fig. 9/3) should bend slightly to the
rear when the vehicle is in operation.
Supporting rollers (Fig. 9/5) limit its mo-
vement toward the floor. To increase
the squeegee contact pressure, the
supporting rollers must be adjusted:
• Loosen the counternuts (Fig. 9/4)
and raise the supporting rollers on
the left and right evenly (turn screw
counterclockwise and lock again).
The sealing strip now bends a little
more towards the rear. An adjustment
of the supporting rollers is also neces-
sary when the edge of the sealing strip
is worn.
