Removing ( Refitting )  - 7210E18  R.R. FRONT 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 hacksawing machine to follow the cutting lines shown in the figure.Remove the cut parts. Use a rotary brush to remove paint to gain access to the weld spots.1. Use a chamfering machine to remove the weld spots shown in the figure.Drill out any weld spots not accessible to the chamfering machine.Use a chisel and mallet to remove spots drilled previously.Trim the cut edges from the car. Straighten the car edges using a mallet and profiled stake.Use a grinding wheel to remove the spot weld residues.Use a rotary brush to clean treated areas.1. Apply electroweldable paint to the edges of the bodyshell which will be involved in the welding later on. 1. Use a grinding wheel to remove the corrosion-proofing from around the inner and outer edge of the parts.Apply electric weld paint finish to the edges to be welded. Refitting ( Removing ) 1. Correctly position the inner part of the side panel (1a) on the vehicle and secure it using the self-locking clamps (1b). 1. Offer up the replacement side panel cover (1a) and secure it to the iner part and to the bodyshell using self-locking clamps (1b).Check the alignment and ensure the surrounding gaps are even.2.
