Removing ( Refitting )  - 7210E51  left rear wingCheck if any of the connected parts are deformed by checking body alignment dimensions. Use appropriate measurement tools (reference rigs, templates or gauges).Straighten the body if necessary. 1. Use a circular saw to cut along the cutting lines shown in the figure.2. Cross-sections of key areas as a guide to allow the operator to adjust cutting position and depth in order to avoid damage to the underlying panels.3. Use a chamfering machine to remove the weld spots.4. Drill out the weld spots shown in the figure.5. Use a scalpel and mallet to remove the outer wheel arch half. 1. Use a circular saw to cut along the cutting lines shown in the figure.2. Cross-section of key area as a guide to allow the operator to adjust cutting position and depth in order to avoid damage to the underlying panels.3. Use a chamfering machine to remove the weld spots.4. Drill out the weld spots shown in the figure.5. Use a scalpel and mallet to remove the outer wheel arch half. Straighten the panel edges using a mallet and profiled stake.Use a grinding wheel to remove the weld spot residues.1. Apply the electric weld paint finish. 1. Cut the part at the bench. Take care to leave a sufficiently wide section of steel to attach the new part to.Use a rotary brush to remove the corrosion-proof treatment from around the inner and outer edges of the part.2. Drill out equidistant holes along the section shown in the figure.3. Apply electric weld paint finish to the panel edges indicated. Refitting ( Removing ) 1. Drill away the weld spots shown in the figure in order to fit the part between both panel edges.2. Position the part on the car and secure using self-locking clips.Check the part is properly aligned.3. Use a scriber to mark the ideal cutting line on the car.Remove the part from the car.Remove any excess sheet steel. 1. Use a circular saw to cut along cutting lines marked previously.2. Trim the cut edge from the car.3. Apply electric weld paint finish to the area beneath the cut edge. 1. Position the part on the car and secure using self-locking clips.Check the part is properly aligned.2. Use a spot welder to weld the roof panel in the areas shown in the figure.3. Use a MIG welder to seam weld the upper panel edge.4. Use a MIG welder to fill the holes made previously. Position the part on the car and secure using self-locking clips.Check the part is properly aligned.1. Use a circular saw to cut both panel edges in order to obtain a perfect join.2. Remove part (2a) and any excess sheet steel (2b). 1. Position the part on the car and secure using self-locking clips.Check the part is properly aligned.2. Use a spot welder to weld the roof panel in the areas shown in the figure.3. Use a MIG welder to seam weld the upper panel edge and the door sill rail.4. Use a MIG welder to fill the holes made previously. Correct any deformations in the panel using a profiled stake and mallet.1. Use a grinding wheel to level the weld and remove. 1. Apply rust-proofing to newly-welded areas.2. Seal the areas indicated in the figure.Apply paint.3. Apply wax oil protection through the hole indicated.  - 7210E51  left rear wing
