Page 26: Scrub Deck Installation
Machine Overview 1.15 Scrub Deck installation When installing a cylindrical deck to a machine: 1. Install brushes after the deck has been mounted to avoid flat spots on the brushes. 2.

Page 28: Side Squeegees
Machine Overview 1.16 Side Squeegees The side squeegees (left and right) are attached to the scrub decks. These items channel the dirty solution to the rear squeegee, helping contain the water within the ma- chine’s cleaning path. These squeegees are raised when the scrub deck is in the raised position. - Page 29 Machine Overview Brush Changes On the Cylindrical Deck In order to change the brushes on the cylindri- cal deck the side squeegee must be moved in order to access the brush doors. The cylindri- cal deck was designed so one can change the brushes without having to realign the side squeegees.

Page 30: Rear Squeegee
Machine Overview 1.17 Rear Squeegee The rear squeegee is the main element that acts as the conduit that transfers the spent solution into the recovery tank. A daily maintenance check of this component is essential to have optimum machine performance. The rear squeegee assembly is equipped with a universal front blade that allows the operator the option to use a slotted and a non-slotted side for specific applications. - Page 31 Machine Overview Rear Squeegee Adjustment Ensure that the scrubber is on a relatively flat surface. Turn on the key switch and select the Vacuum only mode. This lowers the squeegee to the floor and turns the vacuum motor on. Move the scrubber one or two feet forward slowly while someone behind the machine checks the rear squeegee blade (item A) for uni- form deflection to the floor.
