Preparing the Cab Frame Aperture
1 If damp or wet, dry the aperture area using a hot air gun
(sourced locally).
2 Use 'Active Wipe 205' to thoroughly clean and 'prime'
the trimmed sealant. Use a lint free cloth to apply the
'Active Wipe 205', allow 5 minutes flash off (drying)
time.
Note: Do not use any other type of cleaning fluids, otherwise
they may be absorbed into the old sealant and ultimately
prevent the new glass from bonding.
Preparing the New Glass
1 Make sure that the new glass correctly fits the frame
aperture K.
a Put two spacer blocks L onto the bottom part of the
frame aperture.
b Install the new glass on the spacer blocks - ALWAYS
USE GLASS LIFTERS M, refer to Service Tools.
Check that there is an equal sized gap all round the
edge of the glass.
Note: The spacer blocks are rectangular in section to give
two common gap widths. If necessary they can be trimmed
to a smaller size to give an equal sized gap around the glass.
IMPORTANT: The glass edges MUST NOT touch the frame,
otherwise movement of the frame will chip and eventually
break the newly installed glass.

Direct Glazing (cont'd)
Removing the Broken Glass and Old Sealant (cont'd)
d Craft Knife H. The blades are replaceable.
(i) Insert the knife blade into the sealant.
(ii) Pull the knife along and cut out the old sealant.
Note: There are other tools available to cut out the old
sealant. For example, there is a long handle type craft knife
to give extended reach. Refer to Service Tools, for details of
this and any other tools.
4 Remove the cut off sealant and all remaining particles
of shattered glass.
5 If necessary, trim off the remaining old sealant to leave
approximately 1 to 2 mm on the upright face of the cab
frame aperture, as shown at J.
6 Apply a coat of 'Black Primer 206J' to the paintwork if:
a Paintwork was damaged or scratched during the
glass/sealant removal procedures.
b The old sealant was inadvertently cut back to the
cab frame during the glass/sealant removal
procedures.
