Wiper Arm: Adjustments





Wiper Arm Adjustment

Adjust

Adjustment should not be required. However, if adjustment is required, it can be performed as follows:

1. Remove the right arm and blade assembly.
2. Loosen, do not remove, the transmission drive link-to-motor crank arm attaching nuts.
3. Rotate the left arm assembly to a position slightly below the blade stops.
4. Tighten the attaching nuts on the transmission drive link(s) to motor crank arm 7.5 Nm (66 lbs in).
5. Position the right arm and blade assembly slightly below the blade stop and install arm assembly to transmission shaft.
6. Lift the right and left arm and blade assemblies over the stops.
7. Check wipe pattern and park position. Dimension A is 18 mm (11/16") from top of drive's blade on outwipe to paint line and 6 mm (15/64") from edge of glass in park position.

The correct park position and outwipe dimensions are determined with the wipers operating at low speed on a wet glass.
