5) Typically, adhesive/mastic densities or thickness
change on the job site usually as a result of applica-
tion rates on the work surface. This, in turn directly
affects bond densities and thickness. As these factors
change, the blade angle can be adjusted with the
Back Saver™ Blade Control System to help optimize
covering removal rates.
6) Keep the extension cord free and clear the the
main frame area and orbiting blade/ceramic tile ripper
attachment while the Bon Floor Stripper is in opera-

7) Scoring blades are available to remove covering
material such as rubber-backed carpet and linoleum
from concrete and wood surfaces. The vertical ends
of the scoring blade are designed to shear the cover-
ing and remove it in various widths as determined by
the overall blade width. FIGURE 30.

standard accessory and must be mounted whenever
this blade is utilized to minimize blade deflection.
