B. Installing a storm window in a new pilot's side window.
(1) Position the hinge in the notch at the base of the storm window cut-out. With the storm window

indicate the outer edges of the hinge.
(2) Bond the hinge half to the pilot's side window with Dexter Hysol 9446 (see A-A, Figure 4). Take
care to ensure the inside edge of the hinge half is bonded flush to the pilot's window. Also,
ensure that a .030 inch gap is left between the bottom edge of the cut-out and the inside of
the hinge half and that the gap is filled with adhesive.
(3) When the hinge to window bond is cured, slide the latch pin assembly over the rear upper
edge of the storm window cut-out and push the storm window to a closed and latched position.
Mark the position of the latch pin assembly on the pilot's side window.
(4) Bond the latch pin assembly to the pilot's side window with Dexter Hysol 9446 (see B-B, Figure
4). Ensure that the latch pin assembly is aligned to the markings previously made on the pilot's
side window.
NOTE: The storm window retainer is bonded to the storm window with PRC PR-1422
Sealant. The latch pin assembly and hinge are bonded to the pilot's window with
Dexter Hysol 9446.
