Servicing the Squeegee
If the squeegee leaves narrow streaks of water, it is probably dirty or damaged. Remove the squeegee, rinse it under warm water and inspect
the squeegee blade. Reverse or replace the squeegee blade if it is cut, torn, wavy or worn to a radius.
To Reverse or Replace the Rear Squeegee Blade...
1
Raise the squeegee.
2
Remove the wing nuts and unlock the rear strap, then remove the strap and the squeegee blade from the tool (see illustration).
3
The rear squeegee blade has 4 working edges. Turn the blade so a sharp 90
°
edge points toward the front of the machine and against
the floor. Replace the blade if all edges are nicked, torn or worn to a radius.
4
Install the blade, the rear strap and the wing nuts.
Reverse or replace the front blade if cut, torn, wavy or worn to a radius.
Adjusting the Squeegee
Adjust the squeegee angle whenever a blade is reversed or replaced, or if the squeegee is not wiping the floor dry.
To Adjust the Squeegee Angle...
1
Park the machine on a flat, even surface and lower the squeegee.
2
While moving the machine forward slowly, turn the Squeegee Adjustment Knob until the rear squeegee blade folds over evenly across
the entire width of the squeegee.
