How To Operate The Squeegee

The squeegee wipes the floor while the vacuum motor
removes the dirty solution form the floor. Use your
right hand to lower or raise the squeegee handle. To
operate the squeegee, follow this procedure:
1. To lower the squeegee and start the vac motor,
move the squeegee lever to the right and down.
See figure 16.
2. To raise the squeegee, lift the squeegee lever up.
See figure 17.
NOTE: The center position lets the vac motor continue
to run with the squeegee off the floor to avoid drips and
also allows you to back up the machine.

tank follow this procedure:
