TO ADJUST FRONT SQUEEGEE
DEFLECTION
1.
Choose a smooth, level surface. Lower the front
squeegee and deck and drive forward at least 2
feet (60cm) until the desired brush pressure is
obtained.
2.
With the squeegee down, stop the machine. Do
not allow machine to roll back.
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing
machine; stop on level surface, turn off machine
and remove key.
3.
Observe the amount of squeegee deflection. It
should deflect 1/4 in. (6.25mm) across the entire
width of the squeegee.
4.
To increase the squeegee deflection, loosen the
two knobs on the linkage and lower the
squeegee and bracket, then retighten. To
decrease the deflection, loosen the two knobs
on the linkage and raise the squeegee and
bracket, then retighten.
5.
Turn on the key switch. Raise, then lower
squeegee and deck assembly. Drive forward at
least 2 feet (60cm) until the desired brush
pressure is obtained.
6.
Repeat steps 2 through 4 until deflection of
1/4 in. (6.25mm) is reached.
