Find a place where you will produceinstallation of frameless wipers. The garage is best for this purpose. Clean the windshield, as well as fastening the janitors with a jet of water with a good head. Remove the old wireframe wipers. To do this, first remove the brushes. Unscrew the studs and remove the brush body from the mount. Now you need to remove the brush bodies. Remove the rubber plugs that cover the bolts. Pick up the key to the size of the bolt and carefully unscrew it. Act very carefully, since the bolt is directly connected to the motor, which moves the wipers. Do not lose the washers. Without them, the wipers can not be tightened securely.

Choose new frameless janitors. To do this, measure the length of the standard. Pay special attention to the size of brushes. Please note that on some models of cars, the passenger and driver's brushes differ slightly in size. Do not buy brushes of an unknown manufacturer. Also pay attention to the mounts. Modern brushes are sold immediately with several fasteners, which greatly simplifies the selection process. Frameless brushes with electric heating even in severe frosts will work without fail. Heating can be connected directly to the power system or to the cigarette lighter. After purchase, be sure to save the receipt.

Try attaching new wipers. Open the hood. Wires from the heated wipers through the mounting hole into the engine compartment. Carefully place the wire so that it does not touch the working units. Connect it through the fuse to the button for heating the rear window or side mirrors. At the point of attachment to the wire, put on a rubber cover to prevent rubbing during wipers operation. Attach the base of the new wiper to the tetrahedral pin, pre-inserting a new rubber gasket. Top the puck and tighten the bolt with a wrench. Similarly do the second janitor. Dip the brushes on the glass. Close the hood and check the operation of the wipers. If they turn very slowly, loosen the bolt a little.

Before you buy a wiper, you needDetermine which model and for what operating conditions you want to put. An important role is played by the manufacturer of brushes. It is not worth saving and buying cheap Chinese analogues. Such janitors They are short-lived and can badly cope with dirton the glass. But a clean windscreen - a guarantee of your safety. It is better to choose products from the assortment of famous manufacturers of automobile accessories and spare parts. If you change the brushes in the showroom of the official dealer, then you can offer brushes of this particular company.

The next point is the choice of a certainmodification of wipers. They are different. For example, frameless brushes. They better fit the glass because of their lightweight plastic construction. You can choose a brush with a spoiler, which keeps the brush on the glass during a strong wind and at high speed.

Brushes differ and the season of operation. Janitor can all-season, summer, winter. The latter have in their composition substances that do not allow ice and snow to adhere to them. Summer brushes can contain graphite coating on the rubber, which repels dirt. Such brushes are convenient to use in rainy weather.

There are different wipers and rubber composition. All the rubber bands of the wipers are made of rubber. Different manufacturers allow for their composition various impurities (tourmaline, silicone) to improve their performance.

5

For each car there is a sizefront and rear brushes. It happens that the front brushes have different lengths, or there is generally one big brush. In the car dealer, where you will purchase brushes, there must be a catalog with the sizes and compatibility of brushes with different brands of cars. If your car is not in the catalog, you can independently measure the size of brushes and find suitable ones. Buy brushes can be as a set of two pieces, and one by one.

6

If you buy brushes simply by size,Pay attention to the mounts that come with the kit - they may differ from the standard ones. The most common fastening is a "hook" measuring 9 * 3, 9 * 4. There are also fastenings under the pin, "dovetail", "renault".

In order to remove the old wiper,press the leash from the glass. On the janitor's fastener there is a button, by pressing which, the brush moves up or sideways and is taken out. Insert the new brush into the mount until it clicks into place and make sure that it fits snugly.

Improperly selected wiper blades,in addition to not performing the main "work", can damage the windscreen, which will worsen the review and, ultimately, lead to the replacement of this expensive car body element. Therefore, when choosing brushes VAZ is recommended to focus on the design of the wipers and their size.

Types of wiper structures

The most traditional and commonare frame wipers. At the heart of the design is a rigid frame, on which a rubber band is attached. Classic brushes are considered reliable, but not very effective, but Russian VAZs are designed for them. A number of Western manufacturers supply their cars with frameless wipers. They have an original profile that allows you to better clean the windshield and provide uniform pressure over the entire length. Another advantage - a low altitude, which improves visibility and aerodynamic qualities: air flow is easier to skip the windshield wiper. In the winter, frameless brushes are less exposed to icing, because The joints in the construction are very small and the water has nowhere to accumulate. However, frameless brushes are expensive, and they can be installed only on the model of the car for which they are designed, i.e. for VAZ a similar product will not work.

How to choose brushes for VAZ machines

First of all, when choosing the janitors, it is necessarypay attention to the way of fastening: in modern Russian cars a hook is used (or Hook, J-hook), it is designated with the letter "U". The most common sizes of the hook are 9x4 and 9x3. The second important point is the fabrication material of the tape, in which quality silicone is used today. Ideally, it is better to have a pair of brush sets: one for summer (hard version), another for winter (soft, elastic products, less prone to icing). The next important parameter is the size. For classic VAZ models, including for Niva, the length is 33-34 cm. Front-wheel models from 2108 to 2115 require the installation of brushes 51 cm in length. The same size is needed for Priora and Largus. The "Kalina" and Lada Granta put brushes of different length: 60 cm from the driver's side and 40 cm from the passenger. Despite the fact that the design of VAZ involves installing only brushes with a pin-type lock ("classic") or "hook" (more modern cars), it is possible to install brushes with other types of fastening. The installation can be made by means of special adapters.

Most people, when they hear the word "janitor"imagine a woman of large dimensions, or a person of one of the Asian nationalities with a huge shovel or broom. But no one thinks that the janitorial staff has the largest number of representatives of the profession, but meanwhile in every production association, in every budgetary and any other organization there is a work unit "janitor" and in most cases not one, but several. This staff unit performs very important functions not only in a particular organization, but also in life as a whole.

What is the responsibility of the janitor

As for representatives of other professions, forjanitors have their own job description. It includes the description and scope of work that he must perform, the list of tools that he should have available and the time that he is assigned to perform his duties. It is the duty of the janitor to clean roads and pedestrian sidewalks from garbage in the area entrusted to him, as well as sections along the facades of buildings, external staircases of houses and their basements, on special sites where garbage containers are installed. In winter, janitors are obliged to clean snow and ice, help in shipping it for export, sprinkle tracks with reagents, and in the period of melting snow ensure unimpeded migration of thawed waters. In the summer time, care for lawns, watering of trees and flowerbeds, weeding weeds falls on the shoulders of janitors. At any time of the year, the janitor must clean the garbage and wash out the urns that are on his site from time to time, make sure that it is not cluttered up approach to the sewer, fire and gas hatches, turn on and off the street lights in a timely manner. In addition to the customary attributes of the janitor - brooms and shovels, the necessary inventory of its inventory includes scoops of various sizes and configurations, stretchers, ka, buckets, bags for garbage collection, pitchforks and axes, the so-called scythes for mowing grass, rake, secateurs and lawnmowers.

Features of the profession of janitor

Despite the fact that a special profilethe profession does not require a janitor, it is a very difficult and responsible work. From the janitor strict execution of duties is required, the candidate for this post should be the most responsible, punctual and obligatory person. Such work will suit those who prefer to work in a small team or alone. But such qualities as sociability and benevolence will be necessary, because the janitor has to communicate with the residents of nearby houses and with the employees of the company in which he works.
