8. SQUEEGEE ASSEMBLY

The squeegee is assembled as shown in the figure. The squeegee lever should be
in its up position. Push on the rocker arm (1) and lock it into the stud bolt's groove
to secure the squeegee in place. Then fit the squeegee hose into its coupling; the
hose should be located to the right of the lifting cable.

9. ADJUSTING THE SQUEEGEE HEIGHT

The height from the floor to the squeegee should be adjusted based on the blade's
wear. Rotate the knob (2) counter-clockwise to lift the squeegee and clockwise to
lower it.
Note: Adjust the right and left knobs the same amount; the squeegee should be
positioned parallel to the floor.

10. ADJUSTING THE SQUEEGEE INCLINATION

During operation, the rear squeegee blade is most efficient when tilted back about
3/16 inch (5mm) along its whole length. To increase the blade bending in the central
part, tilt the squeegee body backward by turning the adjuster (1) counter-clockwise.
Subsequently, turn the adjuster clockwise to increase the bending at the sides of
the squeegee blade.

11. RECOVERY TANK

1. The vacuum plug (2) is securely attached: line up the notches and rotate the
plugclockwise to close. The vacuum motor hose must also be attached.
2. Confirm the squeegee hose (1) is properly connected.
3. Make sure the drain plug, which is located on the front of the machine is also
closed.
