Windshield wiper kit with new arms for Scout II

I just wrote directions for the Windshield wiper and arm kit for Scout II.

The original wiper arms for Scout II are only available used and the numbers are dwindling.  Because of this I came up with a Kit that replaces arms and wipers.

Here are the directions for installation.  I am hoping that some one out there that has installed them will give me some feed back on how accurate and helpful these directions would have been.

Directions for installation “Scout II Wiper Blade and Arm Kit”  for International Scout II 1971 to 1980 SP16468

 

You have purchased a replacement wiper and arm kit. These are different from the original factory wiper set up. You will need to adjust your wiper arm to fit

 

wiper arm intsallation  procedure.

Step One – get a rag and a pair of pliers, place the rag over the old wiper arm at the pivot point.
Use the plyers to grab the wiper arm at the pivot point.  Rock back and forth and pull.  This should dislodge the old arm.  The knob that the wiper arm was pivoting on is called the “Cap stand”

Step two –. Use your hands to  push the new arm onto the cap stand.

Step three –  Use the included plastic adaptor to mount the new wiper onto the new arm. ( If this not with in your mechanical abilities you should take this job to a professional.)

Step four – Use a flat screw driver to losten the screw at the end of the new arm.  Once the screw is loosened, pivot the drivers side arm to be roughly parallel to the dirver side vertical edge of the windshield.

Step five – adjust the passenger side wiper so it is out of the field of vision in the “off” position.

Step six. – use a garden hose to wet the windshield to lubricate the wipers.  Then activate the wipers and adjust for best results both at rest and in operation.

 

Caution:  It is not recommended for an untrained per to use any power tools or any sharp or dangerous tools.
