Maintenance

Squeegee Blades

The front squeegee blade allows solution to pass
through channels in the blade into the squeegee
assembly while maintaining vacuum to provide lift. The
front blade has four wear surfaces and can be rotated
for extended life. The front blade should not require
regular replacement under normal use.
The rear blade wipes the floor to a near dry condition. It
is important the rear blade be in good condition to
properly do its job. As with the front, each squeegee
blade assembly has four wear surfaces for extended
service.
Check both the front and rear squeegee blades for
damage, wear, and adjustment each day in the pre-run
check. Change the front blade if it is torn or has an
uneven edge. Change the rear blade if it is less than
1/2 the original thickness.

Adjusting Squeegee

Adjusting the squeegee is a two-part process. First, the
squeegee assembly must have correct pitch in order for
the squeegee blade to have the same deflection at
each tip as well as the center. The knob on the
squeegee linkage controls the pitch adjustment. The
second adjustment is the deflection. Knobs on each
end of the squeegee control this.
