Removal

  • In order to permit removal of the rear wing the following components should first be removed:
  1. Unscrew the eleven screws securing the wing to the body.
  2. Using a jet of hot air heat the area between body and wing to loosen the sealant then remove the wing.

Both during removal and installation a blade should be used to facilitate the cutting and removal of the sealant.

Installation and adjustment

  • Remove all traces of sealant from the body using a scraper.

CAUTION: Take precautions to avoid damaging the paintwork.

  1. When installing a new wing, finish and paint the wing (see: PREPARATION FOR THE INSTALLATION OF NEW COMPONENTS) and seal the indicated parts with a type A product.
  2. Check that the securing blocks have not been damaged and replace them if necessary.
  3. Temporarily position the wing against the body and secure it to the door opening blocks and check that the wing and rear door are in line.
  4. If, during removal of the sealant, part of the anti-corrosion coating is accidentally removed, restore the affected parts with Type A rust-proofing before installing the wing.

Tighten, to the prescribed torque, all the screws securing the wing to the body and install all the previously removed components.
