MACHINE PREPARATION
CONNECTING THE SQUEEGEE AND ADJUSTING SQUEEGEE HEIGHT
Prior to shipping from the factory, the squeegee assembly is removed from the unit. To connect your squeegee assembly to the machine:
The squeegee blade assembly height is factory set at the optimum water recovery position with the squeegee wheels being
approximately 1/32 inch (1 mm) off the ground allowing the recovery blade to deflect as shown below.
Button screw to raise and lower
squeegee assembly wheels
Align the squeegee assembly retention slots with the easy-grip knobs then tighten until secure.
Attach the recovery hose to the squeegee assembly neck. Make sure to route the hose so that it won’t interfere with the swing of the
squeegee assembly.

If for some reason your squeegee blade height must be adjusted, it is done so by turning the left button screw located on the squeegee
frame assembly clockwise to raise the left squeegee wheel and counter-clockwise to lower the wheel. The same is true for the right
button screw/squeegee wheel.
After aligning assembly, tighten the
easy-grip knobs and attach the
recovery hose
