CLEANER SETTINGS | SQUEEGEE

To ensure that all dirty cleaner is removed from the pindeck, there is a squeegee wipe feature. By turning this on, the machine will travel through the pindeck and stop once it has reached the end of the lane.

The machine will then lower the squeegee once again and travel forward sucking up any remaining dirty cleaner. 

Tap the SQUEEGEE SETTINGS button. You can turn on/off the squeegee wipe feature from this screen. You can also change how far forward and how far in reverse the machine will travel.

CLEANER SETTINGS | DUSTER

Remove the cleaner dispensing tip from the cleaner head assembly ensuring that the spring in the cleaner head does not fall out. 

After removing the used duster cloth from the lane machine, remove the pipe from the core and insert it into the new one.  Unroll about 3 feet of cloth and then install the new roll into its location.

Route the cloth down between the squeegee and the cushion roller.  Pull the cloth under the cushion roller and distribute it evenly. Once the cloth is routed under the cushion roller, pull the excess cloth far enough through to get at least 3 or 4 wraps around the PVC take-up reel or EZ Core. Peel the strip off of the empty core and make sure the cloth is wrapped evenly from side to side around the pipe.

Insert the take-up reel into its location and reinstall the cleaner dispensing tip.

Locate the button inside the cleaner compartment on the 10 pin side wall. This button is always enabled to operate the duster unless the cleaner volume is being checked.  Press the button once and the duster will unwind, press again and it will wind-up cloth.  The cloth should be rolled up tight and evenly across the assembly. Keep it pressed to reset the number of lanes left in the cloth.
