Side Skirt Maintenance - Clarke Focus II Rider Instructions For Use Manual

A - ENGLISH

SIDE SKIRT MAINTENANCE

The side skirts' function is to channel the waste water to the squeegee, helping contain the water within the machine's cleaning path. During normal use the blades
will wear in time. The operator will notice a small amount of water leaking out underneath the side skirts. A height adjustment can easily be made to lower the
blades so that all the water can be picked up by the squeegee.
To reverse or replace the scrub system side skirt(s).
1 See Figure 10. Loosen the (2) side Deck Skirt Removal Knobs (14) (2 per side) and pull the Skirt Assemblies (AA) slightly forward (disc and BOOST only)
and then off from the scrub deck.
2 Remove all the hardware that holds the blades to the skirt housings.
3 The side skirts have 2 working edges. Turn the skirts so a clean, undamaged edge faces inward. Replace the skirts as a set if they are nicked, torn or worn
beyond their ability to be adjusted.
4 Reinstall the skirt housing assemblies onto the machine and adjust the skirt for proper contact to the fl oor when the brush deck is placed in the scrub position.
SIDE SKIRT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
1 See Figure 10. The side skirt housing knob retainer screw studs have Deck Skirt Height Adjustment Knobs (17), that are to be raised or lowered to
compensate for skirt wear.
2 To adjust, remove the Skirt Assemblies (AA) from the Scrub Deck (AB) to access the Deck Skirt Height Adjustment Knobs (17). Adjustment Tip: The Deck
Skirt Removal Knobs (14) can be loosened with skirts left on and the Deck Skirt Height Adjustment Knobs (17) rotated by reaching under the skirt housing.
3 Turn the Deck Skirt Height Adjustment Knobs
inside the skirting. NOTE: Make small adjustments to obtain good skirt wiping. Do not lower the skirts too much to where they fold over excessively and
cause unneeded blade wear.
Disc shown. Same procedure for BOOST.
