the sash assembly (figure 1) . The trim molding
has also been redesigned (figure 2), and installs
directly into the sash retainer .
No mounting
screws are needed . These new features do not
affect removal and installation procedures as
outlined
in "Screen and Vent
Assembly,"
Section 1,: Maintenance Manual X-7525 .

Rear windows are made of solid tempered
glass.
Care is necessary in handling and
installation . If glass clearance of replacement
window is too small, adjustment may be made
by
"trimming"

flange
around
window .
Do not attempt to grind tempered
glass. Grinding may cause glass to shatter.
WINDSHIELD WIPER SYSTEM
CAUTION : When replacing the windshield wiper motor, correct routing of the power
steering hoses is very important . Although sequence of assembly is not vital, the
power steering hoses, when installed, must not be twisted, kinked, or tightly bent .
The hoses should have sufficient natural curvature in the routing to absorb
movement and hose shortening in operation . They should also be free of twist under
strain . All fittings must be held while tightening or loosening nuts .
ALUMINUM AND FIBERGLASS REPAIR
The aluminum and fiberglass panels on the
body may be repaired if damaged .
Refer to
Sec. 1, Maintenance Manual X-7525 for fiber-

Filler putty can be
used for minor dents, scratches and scrapes on
the aluminum panels. However, major damage
to a panel (fiberglass or aluminum) will require
removal and replacement of the panel . Before
this can be done all windows, access doors,
