Replacement Part Guide
Use this guide to inspect, replace, and stock the right wear item for your SC500 route. Order the matching part below or view the full machine if you are adding a scrubber to your fleet.
Streaks and water trails on hard floors usually trace back to worn squeegee blades on the SC500. Replace blades at the first sign of streaking—not after customer complaints.
Inspection routine
- After each use, wipe the squeegee and check for nicks, curl, or hardening.
- Weekly, confirm both blades seat evenly and the assembly height matches manufacturer guidance.
- Keep a spare 20-inch blade set on the truck or in the janitor closet.
Replacement steps
- Power down the machine and remove the recovery tank if it blocks access.
- Loosen blade retainers and slide out worn rubber; avoid damaging the metal channel.
- Install matched left/right blades for the SC500 20-inch path.
- Run a short test pass on a low-traffic area and adjust squeegee pressure if needed.
