Refitting the wiper arms, and testing
When you refit the wiper arms, ensure that they are clean and dry; and then align either with your masking tape, or the circles, mentioned above. Make sure the arms are firmly on the spindles when getting the alignment correct. Refit the 13 mm nuts and washers, and hand tighten -- again ensuring the arms are firmly on the spindles.
Check that the arms and blades sweep the correct area of the screen -- don't hit either the scuttle or the weather strip at the side of the windscreen, or each other...
...and then tighten up the two nuts; and replace the nut covers.
This is how mine now looks:
Job done!
Two items -- apart from a good ratcheted screwdriver... -- you will find indispensable! The one on the left is for @Ziggy122! :worship:
