Mounting And Adjusting The Squeegee - Dustbane Hurricane 400 XTT Operation Manual

6.2. Mounting and adjusting the squeegee

To mount the squeegee on the machine, proceed as follows:
1. Check that the squeegee mount (ref. 2) is raised, otherwise lift it by means of the squeegee lever (ref. 5);
2. Insert the suction hose sleeve (ref. 4) fully into the squeegee;
3. Slacken the two knobs (ref. 3) at the centre of the squeegee;
4. Insert the two threaded pins into the slots on the support (ref. 2);
5. Fix the squeegee by tightening the two knobs (ref. 3).
The squeegee blades scrape the film of water and detergent from the floor and prepare the way for perfect
drying. With time, the constant rubbing makes the edge of the blade in contact with the floor rounded and
cracked, reducing the drying efficiency and requiring it to be replaced. The state of wear should be checked
frequently.
For perfect drying, the squeegee must be adjusted in such a way that the edge of the rear blade bends during
operation by about 45° with respect to the floor at every point. Adjust the angle of the blade during operation
by regulating the height of the two wheels positioned behind the squeegee (ref. 1).
6.3. Moving the machine when not in operation
