SQUEEGEE SYSTEM
SQUEEGEE TOOL BLADE(S) REPLACEMENT
If the squeegee leaves narrow streaks or water, the blades may be dirty or damaged. Remove the squeegee, rinse it under warm water and inspect
the blades. Reverse or replace the blades if they are cut, torn, wavy or worn.
To Reverse or Replace the Rear Squeegee Wiping Blade...
1
See Figure 1*. Raise the squeegee tool off the floor, then unsnap the Center Latch (A) on the squeegee tool.
2
Remove the Wing Nut (B) from each end of the squeegee, then remove the Tension Straps (C).
3
Slip the Rear Blade (D) off the alignment pins.
4
The squeegee blade has 4 working edges. Turn the blade so a clean, undamaged edge points toward the front of the machine. Replace the blade if all
4 edges are nicked, torn or worn to a large radius.
5
Install the blade, following the steps in reverse order and adjust the squeegee.
To Reverse or Replace the Front Squeegee Blade...
1
Raise the squeegee tool off the floor, then loosen the (2) Thumb Nuts (E) on top of the squeegee and remove the squeegee tool from the mount.
2
Remove all the Hex Nuts (F) that hold the Front Blade (G) in place, then remove tension strap and blade.

SQUEEGEE ADJUSTMENT
Adjusting the Squeegee Angle
Adjust the squeegee angle whenever a blade is reversed or replaced, or if the squeegee is not wiping the floor dry.
1
Park the machine on a flat, even surface and lower the squeegee. Push the machine forward enough to have the squeegee wiping blade fold over to the
rear as shown in figure 2.
2
See Figure 1. Turn the Adjustment Knob (H) to tilt the tool forward (CCW) or backwards (CW), until the rear squeegee wiping blade touches the floor evenly
across its entire width.
