ADJUSTING THE SIDE SQUEEGEE
DEFLECTION
Side squeegee should deflect approximately 3/8
in. when in use. If the blade is under curled it will
skip low spots and leave puddles. It the blade is
over curled or worn it will smear water and leave
stripes and streaks.
1. Choose a smooth level surface. Lower the
scrub deck to the floor and drive forward slowly
while observing the curl and squeegee
performance.
2. To increase the curl, turn the deflection
adjustment knob counter clockwise.
3. To decrease the curl, turn the deflection
adjustment knob clockwise.
