Install windshield - AR67.10-P-1503-01TS
Install windshield (1) within 10 minutes after applying adhesive material, otherwise adhesive force of glue starts to decrease. The windshield (1) must be installed at an acute angle to the A-pillars, otherwise the installation operation is unnecessary difficult and the danger exists of the windshield (1) heating against the body flange and being damaged. Do not close vehicle door until adhesive has cured. When a vehicle door is closed, the vibration to the body can change the installation position of the windshield (1). The curing time of the adhesive material is approx. 2 h, measured from the time the adhesive material is applied.
Use suction lifting device and cup suction tool for installing and removing windshield (1).
Aid of a helper is also required.
