6.8.3 Adjusting the Blades
Angle Adjustment
The angle adjustment is the decisive
factor in ensuring that the squeegee
blades on the squeegee lie evenly on
the floor.
1. Park the machine on a level surface
and lower the squeegee.
2. Loosen the counternut on the adju-
sting screw (Fig. 10/3) and adjust the
squeegee using the adjusting screw
so that the ends of the squeegee bla-
des have contact with the floor.
Figure A
Turn the adjusting screw counter-
clockwise: The clearance between
squeegee blade and floor is reduced
in the center.
Figure B
Turn the screw clockwise: The clea-
rance between squeegee blade and
floor is increased in the center.
3. Switch the machine on and check
the suction pattern. When the machi-
ne is operating, the entire surface of
the squeegee blades (center and ou-
ter areas) must be applied as evenly
as possible.
4. Tighten the counternut on the adju-
sting screw at 5 lb ft.
