Shiplap <strong>DuraPlate</strong> Panel Change 1-4 Trailer Setup Completely unload the trailer and park on a level shop floor. If more than two panels are removed at the same time, support the base rail with jack stands. String should be tightly stretched along the base rail for alignment, and as a reference point for ensuring the base rail remains level. Reference Marks 1. Make reference marks at the top rail, along the base rail, and 4 ft. up on the vertical seams to show exactly where the old panel was installed. To eliminate confusion, make the same reference marks on the inside of the trailer. When the new panel is installed, both mechanics will have reference marks. 2. Use an "X" to mark the damaged panel that will be removed. Figure 1-1, Marking Panel REFERENCE MARKS WEDGE ®
® Separating the Scuff Liner Shiplap <strong>DuraPlate</strong> Panel Change 1. Equipped with an air impact gun and flat chisel tip, cut the rivet heads along the top of the galvanized scuff line across the panel to be changed. Later, the rivet bodies in any adjacent panels will have to be hand-drilled out separately, prior to reassembly (see Figure 1-2). 2. While a mechanic is cutting the scuff liner rivets, a second mechanic can shear the rivet heads attaching the panel to the base rail. 3. Separate the scuff liner from the base rail by placing a flat chisel tip between the scuff liner and inner wall. 4. Block the galvanized scuff liner back at least 6 ft. (on each side) beyond the work area. Figure 1-2, Removing Scuff Liner 1-5
