Windscreen wiper system
The windshield wiper system consists of a windshield wiper motor, a linkage system, windshield wiper arms with brushes, and a wiper/washer switch. A return device consisting of a worm gear and a cam disk is installed in the windshield wiper circuit. The device serves to temporarily maintain the circuit in a closed state after the switch is switched to the off position. The windshield wiper system is driven by an electric motor with a permanent magnet. The windshield wiper motor is mounted on the front shield and is connected directly to the windshield wiper linkage system.
The windshield wiper motor has two speeds: LO (low) and HI (high), and is also capable of operating in intermittent mode. The wiper switch is an integral part of the wiper/washer switch. The windshield wipers are activated by a lever located on the right side of the steering column.
Windscreen washer system
The windshield washer system consists of a washer fluid reservoir, a washer fluid pump, hoses, jets and a wiper/washer switch. The windshield washer reservoir is mounted behind the front right wheel arch mudguard. Attached to the reservoir is a washer pump that supplies washer fluid through hoses to two jets mounted on the hood. The washer switch is an integral part of the wiper/washer switch. The windshield washers are activated by a lever located on the right side of the steering column.
