MOTOR TRUCK SERVICE MANUAL
BODIES AND CABS
If the glass is not damaged and it is desired to
replace the weatherseal only, it is advisable first to cut
away the portion of the weatherseal which is moulded
around the flange in the cab.
The operation of cutting away the rear window
weatherseal will allow easier removal of the window and
lessen the possibility of breaking or cracking the glass
being removed.
When replacing the window glass, the flange at the
window glass opening in the cab must be cleaned before
installing a new glass.
NOTE
:
To assist in installing the rear
window glass, coat the weatherseal with
a soap s olution.
CAB REAR WINDOW GLASS INSTALLATION
Procedure for installing rear window glass is as
follows:
1. Carefully place the moulded weatherseal around
the edge of the glass.
2. Place a chalk line cord in the weatherseal flange
channel, working the cord into the channel
around the full length of the weatherseal.
Be
careful to keep the cord straight and free of
kinks.
