disable the suction function to keep the
squeegee support in up position and
facilitate assembling procedures;
park the machine on a flat surface, insert
the brake, switch it off and remove the
key;
Fit in the squeegee (pos.6) into the squeegee support
(pos.7) centring the knobs (position 5) into the
corresponding slits on the support (position 7).
Once the squeegee is fitted completely, secure the
knobs (position 5).
Connect the squeegee hose from the curved side (pos.
2) into the special hole located in the tank (pos. 1) and
press down until it fits into place completely
Mount the other end of the hose, from the roll-up side

There are 3 types of adjustments that can be carried out on the squeegee:
Inclination adjustment,
with knob position 2.
It adjusts the inclination of the squeegee in order to have a constant
pressure over the entire length of the blade (position 1).
Turn the knob counter-clockwise if there is too much pressure on the
outer points and little pressure on the central area.
Turn the knob clockwise if there is little pressure on the outer points
and too much pressure on the central area. To make the adjustment
lower the squeegee, turn on the suction fan and drive forward slowly.
Examine the pressure distribution on the blade and if necessary
correct the inclination as described above.
Pressure adjustment,
using the knob in position 3
.
This allows for optimal pressure on the blade (position 1) which can
be adjusted for each type of floor and for each type of blade.
For rough floors or uneven floors, increase the pressure by turning the
knob (position 3) clockwise.
For smooth floors, lower the pressure by turning the knob counter-
clockwise
Max. pressure limit
by means of the knob in position 4.
Allows setting max. pressure to be applied to the squeegee blades. To
be adjusted when thinner blades are fitted or when the second suction
unit is fitted.
