Repair of Window Regulator Defects
lf the windows are difficult to wind up and
down (the
maximum torque applied on the
spindle of the window regulator with the glass
installed in the doors exceeds 2.5 Nm) (1.77
tt
lbs), it is recommended that the following steps
are taken as regards both the front
and rear doors:
1. Disconnect the regulator driving plate
from
the window glass
channel. Push the glass
upward
and try the relieved regulator by turning the
regulator crank. lf the regulator does not work
smoothly (jamming,
rattling) or if
a torque higher
than O.7 Nm/(O.495 ft lbs) in front and 1.1
Nm/(0.78 ft lbs) in the rear is required for its
operation, replace the whole regulator with a new
one working satisfactorily.
2. Adjust the centre pillar position
in the door
using the jig
as per
drawing No. A1-1 5417-S.
Loosen the top screw of the centre pillar
and
retighten it while pressing
the centre pillar
against the window glass
wound up to its upper-
most position.
Loosen the bottom screw of the
centre pillar
and retighten it while pressing
the
centre pillar
against the
window glass. 5417

-l! L
3. When bolting together the regulator driving
plate with the window glass
channel make sure
that the holes in these two parts
coincide along
the whole length of the channel. lf it is not so,
move the
channel into a satisfactory position.
4. lf the regulator is
not lubricated, lubricate the
regulator cable in the
tubing with grease
and
apply oil to the regulator
crank spindle.
To Remove ond Reinstoll Reor Door Fixed

duster. Do not use polish
of ony kind.
lf the bodywork is so dirty thot it connot be
woshed cleon with woter, use cor
shompoo.
lf it is necessory to refreshen the gloss
of the
finish, use o cor polish
occording to instructions
of its monufocturer. To wosh the underbody,
use o hose ond
running woter, worm or cold; never use petrol,
kerosene, diesel oil, etc.
Remove greose
spots with o cloth, dry or
sooked in petrol
if necessory. To
remove tor, dip
the cloth in kerosene or o speciol
tor removing
preporotion, ond rub the spots. Then
immediotely
wosh owoy oll troces of
kerosene or the tor
removing solution, ond repolish the spots with
o cor polish.
TOUCHING.UP VARNISH
Preporotion:
Removol of Polishes etc.
When touching up o repoired bodywork (dom-
oged surfoce
finish), it is
importont to olso
cleon the surrounding vornish
to prevent
the
touching-up point
from floking off loter on in
ploces of overlopping.
Remove cor polishes
with o shompoo. Silicone
oil, contoined in some bronds
of polishes
ond
preventing the odhesion of the touching-up
point, con be woshed owoy only with o speciol
preporotion. !n Czechoslovokio, this is
for
exomple VENEDIN. Rub with this preporotion
olso vornished oreos which will be roughened
by grinding
where the bore ploces
poss
into
ground ond cemented oreos.
Removol of Rust
Remove rust mechonicolly by grinding
or
rubbing with emery poper
ond woshing with
c derusting ogent (for
exomple SK 2,
which is
bosicolly o 300/s phosphoric
ocid).
Procedure: f irst cleon the rusty spot with
emery poper
No.80 ond 100
or using o grinder.
Then rub the spot with o 15 0/6
solution of
phosphoric ocid (SK 2 deruSter)
heoted up to
40oC. When using o cold solution,
its concen-
trotion must be obout 300/e (undiluted
SK 2
deruster). Work in rubber gloves.
After hoving removed the rust, wosh
the spot
twice. First
with tepid or cold woter,
soft or softened
by odding 2
to 2.501s of sodo,
then
with o solution of chromium trioxide (1 gr.
to
1 litre of soft
woter) heoted
up
to 80oC (thls
is
the so-colled possivoting
rinse). Now let the
spot dry.
Degreosing Degreose the spot to be touched up by rub-
bing it down with trichloroethylene or technicol
petrol.
1. Touching-up with low-boking points -
the most perfect procedure
o) Cleon the touched-up spot, derust
ond
degreose it (see
the previous
porogrophs
on
preporotion)
b) Sproy over with priming point
c) Let the priming point
dry ot 80oC to 110oC
for o period
of 50
or 15 minutes (50 minutes
ot 85oC, 15
minutes ot 110oC)
d) Coot over with synthetic cement or poly-
ester cement
e) Let the cement dry ot 85oC or 110oC for
o period
of 50 or 15 minutes respectively;
when using polyester
cement, the drying
period con be shortened -
this cement dries
of normol temperoture
f ) Grind under
woter with emery poper
No.280
to320till the spot is perfectly
flot ond even,
ond let it dry
g) Sproy with top-coot vornish
h) Let it dry ot 80oC to 110oC for
o period
of
15 or 50 minutes respectively; ofter boking,
the vornish hos
o high gloss
ond it is not
necessory to polish
it
i) Use o polish
to remove
ony visible troces of
tronsition between the originol ond the
new
vornish.
2. Touching-up with
nitro-combinotion vornish
o) Cleon, grind,
derust, ond degreose the spot
to be touched up
b) Apply priming
point with o brush or o
sproy-gun
c) Level up, if
necessory, with on oil-bose
cement (once
or twice)
d) Let
it dry lor 24 hours ond then grind
with
emery poper
No.220
e) Sproy
the entire touched-up oreo with
sproying cement ond let it dry for 24 hours
f) Grind with
emery poper
No. 280 ond 320
under woter till the oreo is perfectly
smooth
ond flot, ond let it dry
g) Sproy the touched-up spot with o vornish
prepored by mixing low-boking
,vornish
(Toolol ond touching-up vornish (300/e);
use
exclusively o
nitro-thinner for diluting the
vornish
