Section BQ
- Apply a bead of Betaseal/mate adhesive (see sub-section BQ.5) to the bonding surface in the manner shown. - Fit the structure to the chassis and press into position to spread the adhesive. Use several clamps around the joint flange to retain the structure until the adhesive has cured; This will take approximately 4 hours dependent on atmospheric conditions, with a longer period required in dry atmospheres. - Fit the undershield, radiator (see sub-section KH.4), front clamshell (see sub-section BR.5) and remaining parts. BQ.8 - WINDSCREEN FRAME The windscreen frame is a single ICSRTM moulding with hollow, foam filled sections, and incorporates a forward extending buttress at each side to brace the frame against the front chassis. A separate dash baffle panel is used to bridge the space between frame underside and chassis scuttle, and provide for the routing of climate control pipework and air ducting, and other services.
