- Mark a hole on the sealing compound gasket (in-
terposed between frame and glass) by passing a
harmonic steel wire (Ø 0.5 mm).
- Proceed to cut the gasket by sliding the wire
along the perimeter of the glass.
N.B.

ER, FROM OUTSIDE).
WINDSCREEN GLASS ASSEMBLY
- Thoroughly clean the area that houses the win-
dow pane, remove any adhesive or glass that may
have been left (use any mechanical tool, blades,
abrasive elements, etc.). Check that the frame
profile is not deformed (straighten if required).
- If necessary, touch up the area that houses the
pane using original varnish so as to ensure the
sealant will adhere properly.
- Protect the external and internal edge of the
frame using a special tape for bodywork; use a
brush to apply a thin coat of specific primer on the
whole adherence surface involved when the rec-
ommended adhesive sealant is applied.
- Degrease the edge of the new window pane with
ethyl alcohol. Using the appropriate tool to centre
it with respect to the upper and lower edges of the
housing frame, observing proper distances. Check
that the distance of the pane from the edge of the
housing frame is the same on both sides.
