rubber strip
A.
Sheet of plywood,15 mm(19/32")
B.
Foam plastic, 1-1.5"
C. Storage compartment
D. Hooks for sealing compound gun
2. Fit a cord (preferably terylene) of a suitable
size in the groove of the rubber strip for the
sheet metal edge, beginning at the top centre
as shown in Fig, 60.
3.
Place the windscreen in position with rubber
strip fitted. Wearing working gloves, carefully
strike the windscreen a few blows with the
palm of the hand so that it makes good con-
tact all round. Then carefully pull out the cord
from inside.
4.
This will cause the rubber strip to "creep"
over the sheet metal edge as shown in Fig. 61.
It may sometimes be necessary to adjust the
position of the windscreen with the palm of
the hand. If the cord is difficult to pull out, this
may cause damage to the strip, in which case
strike the windscreen from inside with the
palm of the hand and vice versa if the rubber
strip does not "creep" over the edge of the
sheet metal properly.
5. Check that the rubber strip seals well all
round. If necessary adjust the position of the
windscreen both vertically and laterally by
striking with the palm of the hand.
6.
Fit the trim mouldings as previously described.
7. Seal the joints between the rubber strip and
windscreen and rubber strip and sheet metal
with sealing compound using a gun with a flat
nylon nozzle as shown in Fig, 62. Make sure
that the sealing compound fills the joint well.
Scrape off surplus sealing compound and
wash the windscreen and sheet metal with
naphtha and then polish clean.
8.
Fit the interior trim mouldings, rear view mirror
and windscreen wiper arms.
