NOTE: Cross-section thickness of adhesive bead - 1 - is determined by dimension of opening in nozzle tip and rate of application.
- Apply adhesive sealing material all around, as shown in illustration.
- Note varying spacing dimensions to window edge:
CAUTION: Maintain specified distances of adhesive bead to window edges, otherwise there may be leaks.
- In the lower corners, adhesive bead must be applied in even curves at 12 mm distance to side window edge and 25 mm to lower window edge.
- On the lower window edge, the adhesive bead must increase from dimension - a - = 25 mm over dimension - f - = 30 mm to dimension - g - = 36 mm.
- Dimension - a - = 16 mm.
- Dimension - b - = 12 mm.
- Dimension - c - = 92 mm.
- Dimension - d - = 63 mm.
- Dimension - e - = 25 mm.
- Dimension - f - = 30 mm.
- Dimension - g - = 36 mm.
- Using two suction lifters, install windshield in windshield opening.
