SWING GATE OPENING WEATHERSTRIP
REMOVAL
1. Open the swing gate and using a trim stick C-4755 or equivalent, remove the swing gate lower sill plate.
2. Peel seal off of the gate opening flange.
INSTALLATION
1. Position the seal to the bottom of the gate opening starting the installation 10 to 13 cm (4 to 5 in.) from the hinge side of the flange with the trim
lip facing inboard. Press the seal onto the sill flange and work around the perimeter of the door opening until fully seated. Work in one direction,
smoothing the seal to avoid puckers or wrinkles. Pull trim lip cord so that the lip covers the trim edge all around.
2. Position the lower sill plate and seat the attachment clips fully.
