REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (CONTINUED)
Installation
1.
CAUTION: During the curing period of
the PU adhesive the door windows
must be left open to avoid a build up
of pressure when the doors are
opened and closed.
CAUTION: Avoid touching the trimmed
surface, as this will inhibit the bonding
of the new adhesive.
Remove the excess PU adhesive from the
opening flange.
• Carefully trim the remaining PU adhesive
from the windshield opening flange to
leave approximately 1 mm of trimmed PU
adhesive adhered to the opening flange.
2. Check the pinch weld sealing area for
damaged sheet metal, rust or foreign
material, which may have caused, or may
cause glass breakage.
3.
CAUTION: To make sure the PU
adhesive cures, it is essential that all
bonding surfaces are free of
moisture.
Using a hot air gun, apply warm air (25°C)
to the windshield opening flange and glass
bond line to remove all traces of moisture.
4. Prepare the glass, windshield opening and
trimmed PU adhesive in accordance with
the instructions supplied with the adhesive
kit.
5. NOTE: Discard the first 100 mm of PU
adhesive as this may have a reduced working
time.
NOTE: To avoid water leaks, any breakage in
the continuous bead should be overlapped by
20 mm.
Apply a thin continuous bead of PU
adhesive to the edge of the windshield.
6. Install the windshield weather strip.
