Remove windows using a glass saw:
The glass saw is usually the tool of choice for
cutting out laminated glass windows:
• First knock a hole in the window
• Then remove the window by cutting around the
edges
P67.00203700
With a glass saw, the actual cutting occurs on the
pull stroke and not on the push stroke as with
conventional saws. The advantage of this is that
the casualty inside the vehicle is less exposed to
the glass particles produced.

Removing windows using a spring center punch
The side windows, rear window and glass roof are
made of singlepane safety glass (ESG) and can be
removed using a spring center punch:
• Stick adhesive foil or tape over the window
• Position the spring center punch in one of the
bottom corners
• Punch the window with the spring center punch
• The window shatters into small shards which
stick to the film or adhesive tape.
• Remove the window outwards
• Remove remaining fragments of glass from the
window frame (remove the rubber edge strip)
