® Shiplap DuraPlate Lower Horizontal Panel Splice Trailer Setup 1. The trailer must be completely unloaded and placed on a level shop floor. 2. The base rail must be supported by placing jack stands under the front coupler, at the rear ICC bumper and two jack stands with a 20 ft. I-beam under the center section. 3. For additional support, retract the landing gear and add a wood block under the side to be worked on. 4. Stretch a string along the center of the base rail from front to rear on the side to be replaced. CAUTION: People who work with DuraPlate side panels must have the proper safety equipment: safety glasses, ear protection, gloves, steel-toed shoes, knee pads, etc. Figure 2, Trailer Stabilized With Jack Stands 4
® Shiplap DuraPlate Lower Horizontal Panel Splice Remove the Galvanized Scuff Liner from Inside 1. Equipped with an air impact gun and chisel tip, cut off the rivet button heads inside along the top of the galvanized scuff liner the full length of the trailer (Figure 3). 2. Cut off the rivet heads at the front corner post vertical seam up 24", and again at the rear corner post seam up 24". This completely detaches the scuff liner. 3. Using the chisel-tipped impact gun between the scuff liner and the wall panel, remove the scuff liner by peeling it away from the inner wall, moving toward the front. Set the length of galvanized liner aside for reinstallation. 4. As the mechanic is down in position cutting the scuff liner rivets, it may be easier to also shear the rivet heads along the three lower rows of base rail attaching rivets.
