SQUEEGEE BLADE – SMART
SQUEEGEE OPTION ONLY
1. With the squeegee in the up position, turn key
switch "OFF".
2. Remove the squeegee from the machine.
Release latch securing retainer strap.
3. Remove front retainer strap.
4. Remove squeegee blade from locating pins on
squeegee assembly and rotate to new position
or replace as required.
5. Install blade on locating pins of squeegee tool.
6. Replace front retainer strap.
7. Secure strap by locking latch.
TO ADJUST SQUEEGEE PITCH
1. Choose a smooth, level surface. Turn "ON" the
key switch. Lower the squeegee and drive
forward at least 2 feet (60cm.).
2. With the squeegee down, stop the machine. Do
not allow machine to roll back.
FOR SAFETY: Before leaving or servicing the
machine; stop on level surface, turn off machine
and remove key.
3. Determine the differences, if any, in deflection of
the squeegee blade between each end and the
middle. Proper adjustment is obtained when
deflection is equal all the way across the
squeegee blade.
4. To decrease the deflection of the squeegee
blade at the ends, loosen plastic knob near the
squeegee center. To increase the deflection at
the ends of the squeegee assembly, tighten
plastic knob.
5. Check the deflection of the squeegee blades
again. Repeat steps 1 through 4 until the
deflection is equal across the entire rear
squeegee blade.

NOTE: The deflection should be consistent along
the length of the squeegee. If the deflection varies
from end to end the knobs can be adjusted
independently to correct the variation.
