PAINTING
77-5-2 PROCEDURES
Paint preparation
Paint refinishing
The following process must be adhered to for paint refinishing operations.
1Seal required exterior and interior seams with an approved seam sealer

+ BODY SEALING MATERIALS, MATERIALS AND APPLICATIONS, Approved materials.
2Repair any damage to underbody sealers

+ CORROSION PREVENTION AND SEALING, CORROSION PREVENTION, Corrosion prevention.
3Apply a two-pack paint refinishing system
4Apply cavity wax to all interior surfaces which have not received refinish paint
Paint repairs
Before carrying out paintwork repairs, clean the vehicle thoroughly using either a steam cleaner or high-pressure
washer.
Wash locally repaired areas using a mild water-mixable detergent and wipe them clean with solvent, immediately
before paint application.
Ensure that damaged paintwork which has led to exposed metal is abraded until the metal is clean, extending beyond
the area of the original damage. Treat the bare metal with an etch phosphate to remove all traces of rust and to provide
a key for new paint coats. Re-treat the affected area using either a separate acid-etch primer and two-pack surfacer
or an integrated etch primer/filler, and follow with a two-pack paint system. Treat those surfaces not receiving paint
using an approved cavity wax, following paint operations.
aTwo-pack top coat
bTwo-pack primer filler and etch primer
cEtch phosphate
When heat curing paint repairs, the temperature must not exceed 65
°C (149°F). Temperatures above this
figure will cause the reflective elements within the headlamps and taillamps to distort.

AIR CONDITIONING
82-6DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Condenser
1Condenser matrix
2Outlet connection
3Inlet connection
The condenser transfers heat from the refrigerant to the surrounding air.
The condenser is installed immediately in front of the oil coolers. Rubber mounting bushes are used to mount the
condenser to the chassis sidemembers and brackets on the headlamp panels.
Ambient air, passing through the condenser matrix due to ram effect and/or the cooling fan, absorbs heat from the
refrigerant, which changes state from a vapour to a liquid.
