MAINTENANCE

SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY
The squeegee system is crucial to high-performance cleaning. It is the last thing that touches the floor so proper maintenance is important
for making it perform at its peak.
To flip or replace squeegee blades,
release over-center latch
Remove the blade and either flip to
fresh edge or replace
Slide the squeegee retainer off the
hook on the other side
Remove the squeegee assembly from the machine by loosening the easy-grip knobs and detaching the recovery hose at the back of the
machine. Take the squeegee to a drain or utility sink and thoroughly rinse the underside of the squeegee frame and squeegee blades.
Make sure that all particles and debris have been removed. Inspect the neck of the squeegee assembly for debris. If found, clear the
debris and rinse it out.
Inspect the front and rear squeegee blades. If the blade edges are not clearly defined or worn halfway through the thickness of the
blade, then it is time for replacement or to be flipped to another edge. The S-Series mid-size scrubber’s squeegee blades have four
usable edges.
Blade exchange is completely tool-free for fast, easy maintenance. To remove the rear blade, release the over-center latch and slide the
squeegee retainer off the hook on the other side.
To re-attach the blade, align the blade holes with the squeegee frame guides from one end to the other. Slide the retainer over the hook and
press the retainer latch into position on the far end following the guides. Engage the latch to finish the operation.
The front-blade exchange is completed in a similar fashion to the rear blade by removing the front blade retainer, attaching a new blade using
the guides and re-engaging the squeegee retainer.
When squeegee assembly and blade maintenance is complete, re-attach the squeegee assembly by aligning the assembly, tightening the
easy grip knobs and re-attaching the hose.
