11.3.2 Fitting the Squeegees
It is usual to fit two trailing edge squeegees and use the machine in the Print/Print mode.
When fitting a single squeegee (trailing edge or diamond section) to the machine, it must be fitted
to the front squeegee mount only.
The following procedure describes a double trailing edge squeegee configuration fit to the machine
printhead mounting assembly.
► Select Product Setup.
► Select Change Squeegees.
► The print carriage is driven to the front position.
► Open the printhead cover.
► Fit the rear squeegee to the rear squeegee mount tightening the thumbscrews finger tight.
NOTE
The locking thumbscrews on the rear squeegee are positioned wider apart than those fitted to the
front squeegee and the keyway slot is positioned on the left hand side of the rear squeegee.
► Fit the front squeegee to the front squeegee mount ensuring the thumbscrews are tightened
finger tight.
NOTE
The locking thumbscrews on the front squeegee are positioned closer together than those fitted to
the rear squeegee and the keyway slot is positioned on the right hand side of the front squeegee.
