Mounting And Adjusting The Squeegee

The squeegee (fig. 2, ref. 6) is responsible for the first phase of drying.
To mount the squeegee on the machine, proceed as follows:
1. Check that the squeegee mount (fig. 7, ref. 2) is raised, otherwise lift it by means of the squeegee lever (fig. 7, ref. 5);
2. Insert the suction hose sleeve (fig. 7, ref. 4) fully into the squeegee;
3. Slacken the two knobs (fig. 7, ref. 3) at the centre of the squeegee;
4. Insert the two threaded pins into the slots on the support (fig. 7, ref. 2);
5. Fix the squeegee by tightening the two knobs (fig. 7, ref. 3).
The squeegee blades scrape the film of water and detergent from the floor and prepare the way for perfect drying. With time, the
constant rubbing makes the edge of the blade in contact with the floor rounded and cracked, reducing the drying efficiency and
requiring it to be replaced. The state of wear should be checked frequently.
For perfect drying, the squeegee must be adjusted in such a way that the edge of the rear blade bends during operation by about
45° with respect to the floor at every point. The angle of the blades can be adjusted using the screw (Fig. 7, ref. 1), while the height
of the squeegee from the floor can be adjusted using the screw (Fig. 7, ref. 6).
