MAINTENANCE
Squeegee Blades
1. If a squeegee blade is worn or ripped, raise the squeegee
assembly and remove the entire squeegee assembly.
Disconnect vacuum hose, loosen two thumb screws and
slide pivot frame out. Remove the wing nuts on the rear of
the squeegee housing. Then remove the metal support
strap.
2. Squeegee blades can be repositioned to provide a new edge. See Figure 1
The front blade has two working edges (ref. #1, 2).
Flip blade for new edge when worn.
The rear blade has four working edges (see ref. #3 through 6).
When edge is worn, turn blade so new edge is on bottom,
facing front of squeegee.
NOTE: Edges of front and rear blades must be parallel to
each other.
3. Place the metal support strap back into position. Replace
the wing nuts on rear of the squeegee housing. Do not over-
tighten wing nuts as this will wrinkle the squeegee blade and
cause streaking during recovery.
Always keep the squeegee blade edge straight for best
results.
Clean squeegee blades with a damp cloth.
