Squeegee Adjustments - Minuteman MC20004CE Operation Service Parts Care

Squeegee Adjustment
The squeegee set-up is pre-adjusted
at the factory. Adjustments may be required
to get optimum performance for different
floors and conditions.
Pitch Control Adjustment
1. Ensure that the scrubber is on
a relatively flat surface. Pull the
red emergency button away from
the dashboard to activate power.
Turn on the main power switch
and turn the key switch. Raise
the scrubhead off the floor.
Turn the vacuum switch.
2. Lower the squeegee (item 1)
to the floor and move the
machine one or two feet
forward to check the rear
squeegee blade for uniform
deflection to the floor.
3. If uneven deflection or lay is evident, minor adjustments may be necessary to avoid
streaking and uneven wear on the blade.
4. To correct this, pitch adjustment is necessary. Loosen the pivot screw (item 2) and the pitch
screw (item 3). Move the machine forward and allow the squeegee to level itself or adjust
the angular position accordingly to achieve a uniform blade deflection. Re-tighten screws.
5. In certain applications where a different blade set-up is required, the reinforcement blade
(item 4) may be turned upside down. The notch, which is normally on the bottom will now
be located on the topside. This allows the rear squeegee blade a larger deflection than
normal.
