Squeegee Blade Replacement After Sn1321039 - Nilfisk-Advance HYDRO-RETRIEVER 2052 Service Manual

SQUEEGEE BLADE REPLACEMENT FOR MACHINES AFTER SN1321039
There are (3) rubber blades on the squeegee. The front blade increases the velocity of the air entering the squeegee. The wiping blade wipes
the floor dry. The rear blade supports the wiping blade.
The wiping blade works best when there is a sharp corner on its front edge. As the squeegee is used, the front edge wears to a radius. When
this happens, the blade can be removed from the squeegee and turned around so that a sharp edge is facing forward. The wiping blade has four
usable edges.
To replace the squeegee blades . . .
1 Remove the squeegee from the machine, remove the front strap and the front blade from the squeegee.
2 Remove the wing nuts at the ends of the rear straps, release the latch at the center of the straps and remove the wiping blade and the back-
up blade.
3 Clean the squeegee thoroughly and install the new blades.
4 Put the squeegee back on the machine. The flat washers on the (4) squeegee mounting studs should be positioned between the top of
the squeegee mount and the bottom of the tee nuts.
