SIDE BLADE MAINTENANCE

The side blade's function is to channel the waste water to the squeegee, helping contain the water within the machines 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 blades. 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 blades ...
1 Unlatch and open the scrub deck side doors (15).
2 See Figure 14-1. Unlatch the retaining strap (AA) and remove the strap and blade.
3 The main side blade has 4 working edges as shown. Turn the blade so a clean, undamaged edge faces toward the center of the machine.
Swap the right and left side blades to use the remaining two edges. Replace the blades as a set if all edges are nicked, torn or worn beyond
their ability to be adjusted.
4 Reinstall the blade onto the blade assembly and secure by latching the retainer strap (AA). Adjust the blade for proper contact to the À oor
when the brush deck is placed in the scrub position.
SIDE BLADE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
1 The down stop can be adjusted on the side blades to compensate for blade wear.
2 Make sure the machine is on a level surface.
3 Lower the scrub deck by pressing the One-Touch Scrub Switch (E) and drive the machine forward a short distance to ensure the blades fold
over.
4 Open the scrub deck side doors (15) and observe blade fold over.
5 To adjust, loosen the Side Blade Lock Knob (AB). Turn the Down Stop Knob (AC) (Up or Down) to where the blades just fold over enough
when scrubbing that all the waste water is contained inside the deck. NOTE: Make small adjustments to obtain good blade wiping. Do not
lower the blades too much to where they fold over excessively and cause unneeded blade wear. Tighten the Side Blade Lock Knob (AB) to
lock the adjustment.
SIDE BLADE PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
1 The scrub deck side blades have two settings for down pressure.
2 See Figure 14-2. Position 1 (AE) is normal wiping pressure, it is recommended to start at this setting. Position 2 (AF) is heavy wiping
pressure, this setting can be used if wiping performance is not satisfactory. NOTE: Position 2 will cause faster blade wear.
3 Pull Bracket (AG) to change between the two settings. Use the same setting on both sides of the scrub deck.
DOUBLE SCRUB POSITION
1 See Figure 14-3. Step down on Blade Raise/Lower Lever (AH) to raise blade. NOTE: This position can also be used for installing/removing
brushes.
2 When ¿ nished double scrubbing with the machine, step down again on Lever (AH) or pull Release Bracket (AJ) to lower side blade back to its
normal operating position.
