9. If necessary, slacken the screws on the wiper blade attachment clip, move the blade up or
down for optimum position and then retighten screws.
10. Move the wiper arm/blade assembly over its full stroke and check that there is no restriction to
movement (the motor will offer some resistance, but should not jam the wiper). Investigate
and rectify any restrictions. If necessary adjust the wiper blade up or down on the arm to avoid
the window frame.
11. Pass the cables through the bulkhead, leaving sufficient spare cable to allow the front
assembly to be lifted away from the rear case during the maintenance period. Ensure the
wiper is correctly earthed.
12. Ensure that wherever the cable passes through the bulkhead a suitable cable gland or seal is
used to prevent water ingress and cable chaffing.

1. Carefully mark the position of the 2 (3 for longer wipers) off universal carrier plates.
2. Prepare the bulkhead and universal carrier plates carefully and weld the 2 (or 3 for longer
wipers) universal mounting brackets into position. Treat bare metal to prevent corrosion.
3. Drill the remaining wiper fixing & cable holes for the multi-way cable, ensuring that all holes
are circular and carefully de-burred. Treat bare metal to prevent corrosion.
4. The wiper unit should be supplied with the arm mounting plate (4) already fitted. If it is not fitted,
remove 2 x ¼ UNF Thin Nuts (2) and 2 x M6 washers (3) from the pivot block threads and
remove the wiper arm sub assembly (5) from the arm mounting plate (4). Fit the arm mounting
plate (4) to the wiper unit before installing the wiper unit using the supplied M6 x 10mm screws.
CAUTION: Ensure the correct length screws are used, as supplied. Longer screws will cause
the carriage assembly to jam.
5. Fit the wiper blade to the wiper arm sub assembly (5), ensuring that the
captive end of the wiper blade is at the top.
6. Bolt the front case to the back case using the 2 off M8 bolts fitted.
CAUTION: Do not overtighten the cover bolts. There should be 3mm
clearance between arm mounting plate and inside of wiper case.
7. Fit the wiper case into position on the Universal Carrier studs and secure with supplied M10
spring washers, M10 flat washers and M10 nuts.
