GENERAL - MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
CLEANING PLASTIC WINDOWS
The plastic windows should be kept clean and waxed at all
times. To prevent scratches and crazing, wash the windows
carefully with plenty of soap and water. Use the palm of the
hand to feel and dislodge dirt and mud. A soft cloth,
chamois or sponge may be used only for the purpose of
carrying water to the surface of the window. After washing,
rinse the window thoroughly with running water and dry it
with a clean, moist chamois. Do not rub the plastic window
with a dry cloth, because this will cause an electrostatic
charge which attracts dust.
Remove oil and grease with a cloth moistened with
kerosene, aliphatic naphtha or hexane, then rinse the
window with clear water.
CAUTION
Never use gasoline, bezene, alcohol, acetone,
carbon tetrachloride, fire extinguisher or anti-ice
fluid, lacquer thinner, or glass cleaner with a
base of these materials, for such materials will
soften the plastic and may cause crazing.
Aliphatic naphtha and similar solvents are highly
flammable and extreme care must be exercised
when using these chemicals.
If it is desirable to use a commerical cleaner to clean the
plastic windows, use only cleaners that are approved by
Beech Aircraft Corporation. There are several cleaners
available commercially that state that they are approved for
use on acrylic surfaces. However, it has been discovered
that some of these cleaners cause acrylic plastic to craze.
Therefore, only the following products are approved by
Beech as cleaners tor acrylic plastic windows: Federal
Specification P-P-560, Part No. 4030 (66, Chart 207,91-00-
00), Parks Anti-Static Plastic Polish (66, Chart 207, 91-00-
00) and Meguiar's MGH-10 (66, Chart 207, 91-00-00).
Follow the directions on the container.
After washing plastic windows with soap and water, wax
them with a good grade of commercial wax. The wax will fill
in minor scratches and help prevent further scratches. Apply
a thin, even coat of wax and bring it to a high polish by
rubbing lightly with a clean, dry, soft flannel doth. Never use
a power buffer, as the heat generated by the buffing pad
may soften the plastic.
A18
If the windows were cleaned with one of the three
commercial cleaners mentioned previously, it wifl not be
necessary to apply wax. Each of these cleaners contains
I
wax, as well as cleaning agents.
WINDSHIELD REMOVAL (TJ-3 and after)

.007 inch. The sealer can be applied to either the window or
the fuselage skin. Do not apply sealer to the spacer or strap.
r. Install the window with the four temporary
fasteners located in the positions indicated in Figure 203.
s. Install the strap with temporary fasteners.
t. Using a washer under each nut, install new
HL18PB70-5-6 fasteners. Draw the window down evenly all
the way around. After new fasteners have been installed in
open holes, remove the temporary fasteners and replace
them with new HL18PB70-5-6 fasteners.
NOTE
New Hi-Loks and collars (nuts) are required for
installation; however, the existing washers may
be acceptable for reuse. As the fasteners are
tightened, be sure that there are no voids in the
sealer. A uniform pad of sealer .D07-inch thick
will assure a good seal. If the sealer is too thick,
the shanks of the fasteners may wobble in the
holes as the cabin is pressurized.
u. Clean off any excess sealer with clean white rags
and reinstall the molding around the window.

CABIN WINDOW REMOVAL (TJ-3 and after)
a. Remove the molding around the window to allow
access to the Hi-Lok fasteners.
NOTE
New fasteners are required for installation,
however the washers can be retained and
used again.
b. Remove the Hi-Lok fasteners and remove the
window. Remove the old sealer with toluol (22, Chart 207,
91-00-00).
CABIN WINDOW INSTALLATION (TJ-3 and after)
All cabin windows are installed using Hi-Lok fasteners. Pre-
drilled replacement windows are available and only minor
preparation is necessary before installation.
NOTE
If blank windows are used for replacement
windows, the following procedures should be
used for drilling holes:
1. Place the window in position against the
skin (window should not contact any structure
along edges.)
2. Insert a drill guide in the existing holes in
the skin and drill No. 40 pilot holes thru the
window.
3. Remove the window and with special
ground bits (see Rgure 201), using the No. 40
pilot holes as a center, drill halfway thru the
window. Turn the window over and finish
drilling the holes from the opposite side to
prevent chipping of the window around the
edge of the holes.
Installation of pre-drilled windows may be accomplished as
follows:
a. Clean the edge of the window with a clean white
cloth.
l
b. Apply PR1425 B-2 sealer (14, Chart 205, 91-00-00),
with a sealant roller (Warner, #222 or #30, Car! Graham
Co., Wichita, Kansas) to a uniform thickness of
approximately .007 inch.
