Wiper care :

1. Wiper blade attack angle on wind shield glass

should be 90 deg. i.e perpendicular. Fig. 60

Remove wiper blade and rest wiper arm on wind

shield glass in the centre position. Check the gap

between arm strip and glass. Adjust by twisting

wiper arm.

2. Lubricate (one drop) hinge joint area in each

vehicle service to achieve proper arm pressure.

Fig. 61

3. If metal frame of secondary lever is found twisted,

straighten the lever and yoke.

4. If vertebra is found protruding out, slide the

vertebra inside the rubber and crimp the claw to

prevent if form coming out again. Fig. 62

5. Wiper blade should not over ride the windshield

glass as the rubber element may get damaged.

This can be adjusted by loosening the wiper arm

and resetting, so that it remains (parallel) above

the rubber lining in the parking position.
