WINDSHIELD
The front windshield is installed by using a special type of adhesive (that is, one component urethane adhesive
used with primer). For the Windshield replacement, it is important to use an adhesive which provides sufficient
adhesion strength and the follow the proper procedure.
CAUTION:

Described in this section is the glass replacement by using 3 types of primers and 1 type of adhesive
made by YOKOHAMA (one component urethane adhesive to be used with primer in combination).
When using primer and adhesive made by other manufacturers, be sure to refer to handling instruc-
tions supplied with them. Negligence in following such procedure or misuse of the adhesive in any
way hinders its inherent adhesive property. Therefore, before the work, make sure to read carefully
the instruction and description given by the maker of the adhesive to be used and be sure to follow
the procedure and observe each precaution throughout the work.

Should coated surface be scratched or otherwise damaged, be sure to repair damaged part, or corro-
sion may start from there.
Use an adhesive of above mentioned type which has following property.
Shearing strength: 40 kg / cm
2 (569 lb / in2) or more

utes.)
2) Install new glass stoppers (2pcs.) to lower side of windshield and
new fastener to body.
When reusing wind shield, install new fastener to wind shield.
3) To determine installing position of glass to body, position glass
against body so that clearance between upper end of glass and
body is about 5 mm (0.197 in.) and clearances between each
side end (right & left) of glass and body are even. Place glass so
that lug of fastener is matched with cut in body and fit fastener.
Then mark mating marks on glass and body as shown.
Upper clearance can be adjusted by moving stoppers position.
4) Clean contact surfaces of old adhesive, paint or bare metal thor-
oughly.
If surfaces of paint or bare metal come out, apply primer for body
with caution not to apply primer to surface of adhesive remaining
on body.
NOTE:

Be sure to refer to primer maker's instruction for proper
handling and drying time.

Do not touch body and old adhesive surfaces where glass
is to be adhered.
5) Install new molding to glass.
6) Clean glass surface to be adhered to body with clean cloth. If
cleaning solvent is used, let it dry for more than 10 minutes.

11) Check for water leakage by pouring water over windshield
through hose. If leakage is found, dry windshield and fill leaky
point with adhesive. If water still leaks even after that, remove
glass and start installation procedure all over again.
CAUTION:
Upon completion of installation, note the following.

Do not use high pressure water.

Do not blow compressed air directly at adhesive ap-
plied part when drying.

Do not use infrared lamp or like for drying.

Sudden closing of door before adhesive is completely
set may cause glass to become loose or to come off.
Therefore, if door is opened or closed before adhesive
is completely set, make sure to open all door glasses
and use proper care.

If molding is not securely in place, hold it down with
a tape until adhesive is completely set.

Each adhesive has its own setting time.
Be sure to refer to its maker's instruction, check set-
ting time of adhesive to be used and observe precau-
tions to be taken before adhesive is set.

Refrain from driving till adhesive is completely set so
as to ensure proper and sufficient adhesion.
