SQUEEGEE CLEANING

NOTE
In order to maintain the optimal effect of water Vacuum, the squeegee must be
kept clean, and the squeegee strip must remain in a good condition.
CAUTION ！
When cleaning the squeegee, it is recommended to put on protective gloves
because the squeegee may contain sharp fragments.
1. Move the machine to a flat and smooth surface.
2. Press the power switch (38) to the "O" position to turn off the machine.
3. Unscrew the fixed handle (16) of the squeegee; take off the connector connecting the Recovery
Vacuum tube of the squeegee, and take off the squeegee.
4. Use the squeegee lifting handle (14) to lift the squeegee support frame.
5. Clean the squeegee (Figure 10). Clean in particular the groove (A, Figure 10) and the dirt and
fragments on the Vacuum tube. Check if the front squeegee blade (C) and the rear squeegee
blade (D) are intact, and if there are broken edges and cracks. Change them if necessary (refer to
the steps in the following section).
6. Re-install the squeegee in the reverse order of the above.

SQUEEGEE BLADE CHECK AND REPLACEMENT

1. Following the methods related in the previous section clean the squeegee (Figure 10)
2. Check the edge (E, Figure 10) of the front squeegee blade and the edge (F) of the rear squeegee
blade (D). On the whole length, they should be on the same level. Otherwise, adjust their heights
through the following procedure.
－ Loosen the clip (G) to let the rear squeegee blade (D) separate from the bracket (M) for the
adjustment of the position of the squeegee. After the adjustment, lock the clip once again.
－ Loosen the screw on the handle (I) to adjust the front squeegee blade (C); tighten the handle
screw after adjustment.
3. Check if the front squeegee blade (C) and the rear squeegee blade (D) is intact and if there are
broken edges and cracks. If necessary, change them according to the following ways. Check the
front edge of the rear squeegee blade (J) whether it has been worn. If worn, it can be installed
upside down (the top edge is required to be intact). If the top edge is also worn, change it by
following the procedure below:
－ Loosen the clip (G) to let the pressure blade separate from the bracket (M), take off the clip bar
(K), and then change or turn the rear squeegee blade (D) upside down. Re-install the rear
squeegee blade in the reverse order of taking it off.
－ Loosen the handle screw (I) and take off the front clip bar (L), and then change the front
squeegee (C).
