APPLICATION SETUP
VCT Tile
Never use a blade wider than the size of the tile being removed. If materials being re
-
moved still do not come up clean or machine jumps on top of materials, reduce blade size
until proper blade size is found or use a smaller portion of the blade.
Pure Vinyl Rubber Tile
Materials will need to be scored down to 25.4-30.5 cm for proper removal. Self-scoring
blades can be used with some materials. A 25.4 cm blade is recommended for this ap-
plication.
Direct-Glued Carpet
Manufacturer recommends using a self-scoring blade.
Normally 15.2-35.6 cm self-scoring
blades are used on direct-glued carpet, secondary-backed, unitary, double-glued, vinyl
foam, and urethane foam.
Concrete
When working on concrete slab, normal blade position is bevel up for best performance,
especially when cleaning adhesive. On occasion, bevel down gives better blade life. Test
each job for best performance.
Gypcrete and Soft-Poured Flooring
Requires blade bevel down to create a better wearing surface.
