5. If the deflection is not the same over the full
length of the blade, turn the squeegee
leveling knob counter-clockwise to decrease
the deflection at the ends of the squeegee.
Turn the squeegee leveling knob clockwise
to increase the deflection at the ends of the
squeegee blade.
6. Push the machine forward again to check
the squeegee blade deflection.
7. Readjust the squeegee blade deflection if
necessary.
ADJUSTING SQUEEGEE BLADE DEFLECTION
Deflection is the amount of curl the squeegee
blade has when the machine moves forward with
the squeegee lowered to the floor. The best
deflection is when the squeegee wipes the floor
just dry with a minimum amount of deflection.
1. Turn the machine power on.
2. Lower the squeegee.
3. Drive the machine forward, and look at the
deflection of the squeegee blade. The
correct amount of deflection is 12 mm
(0.50 in) for scrubbing smooth floors and
15 mm (0.62 in) for rough floors.
4. Turn the machine power off.
5. To adjust the amount of deflection, turn the
squeegee deflection knob counter-clockwise
to decrease the blade deflection.
Turn the squeegee deflection knob
clockwise to increase blade deflection.
6. Push the machine forward again to check
the squeegee blade deflection.
7. Readjust the squeegee blade deflection if
necessary.
