Repainting of the cab

• When a standard-color-coated cab is repainted,

plastic and rubber parts on it should be removed
where possible to protect them from adverse
effects.

*1

The caps covering the holes in the cab for mounting the radiator grille and corner panels cannot be reused
once removed. Replace them with new ones.

*2

Before reinstalling removed door weatherstrips, check their plastic clips for deformation in claws and defects
preventing smooth insertion. Any defective clips must be replaced with new ones.

Laminated glass

• When a repainted cab body is heat-dried, the

temperature should not exceed 100 °C {212 °F}
and the process must be completed within 60
minutes. When using a temperature above 100 °C
{212 °F}, cover the glass surfaces with shields to
prevent them from being heated beyond 100 °C
{212 °F} or remove the glass.

• Laminated glass is marked by a double slash (//) in
