Vehicle Damage Warnings

CAUTION:
^ Care must be taken to prevent scratching the pinch weld.
^ After installing the urethane installed back window glass, the vehicle should not be driven until the urethane adhesive has cured. The curing time at temperatures above 13°C (55°F) and relative humidity above 50% is 12-24 hours (refer to ESSEX drive away chart for cure times as temperature and humidity vary). Inadequate curing of the urethane adhesive will adversely affect the strength of the urethane adhesive bond.
^ Wipe off the urethane glass prep immediately after each application because it flash dries. Apply deliberate strokes, making sure not to overlap the applied area.
^ If the vehicle is to be driven within 24 hours of urethane adhesive application, Urethane Adhesive Essex U-216 meeting Ford specification WSB-M2G316-B must be used due to its two and one-half hour cure time.
^ Do not attempt to forcibly remove the rivets as damage to the front door window glass will result.
^ Do not attempt to forcibly remove the rivets as damage to the rear door window glass may result. Prior to removing the rivet center pins, it is necessary to place a suitable block support between the door outer panel and the rear door window channel bracket to stabilize the rear door window glass during rivet removal.
