SQUEEGEE
The squeegee assembly channels water into the
vacuum fan suction. The front blade channels the
water, and the rear blade wipes the floor.
Check the squeegee blades for damage and wear
daily. Rotate or replace either of the squeegee
blades if the leading edge is torn or worn half-way
through the thickness of the blade.
The squeegee can be adjusted for leveling and
deflection. The deflection and leveling of the
squeegee blades should be checked daily, or
when scrubbing a different type of floor.
The squeegee assembly can be removed from
the squeegee pivot to prevent damage during
transport of the machine, or when changing to a
different squeegee width. The squeegees are
available in three widths to be used with the three
different model scrub heads; model 700 (700 mm
(28 in)), model 800 (800 mm (32 in)), and model
900 (900 mm (36 in)).
