  • Page 14: Blade Changing / Installation

    MK-VTS/50 FLOOR SCRAPER BLADE INSTALLATION BLADE CHANGING / INSTALLATION CAUTION Blades are sharp. Handle with care.

  • Page 16: Handle Adjustment

    MK-VTS/50 FLOOR SCRAPER GENERAL OPERATION HANDLE ADJUSTMENT After the proper wheel adjustment is achieved, adjust the handle length.

  • Page 17: Blade Usage

    MK-VTS/50 FLOOR SCRAPER BLADES BLADE USAGE Start with a narrow blade, then increase blade size to optimize cutting pass. Narrower blades work easier than wider blades and usually clean the floor better. Wider is not always better or faster. Proper blade size and placement, depending on material and sub-floor type, greatly affects performance.
