FORD 2013 F-550 v.1 - Manual (Page 317)

CHANGING THE WIPER BLADES
1. To remove the wiper blade, pull
the wiper arm away from the
vehicle. Pry open the lock cover (A)
with your thumb to release the
blade.
2. Press the retaining clip to
disengage the wiper blade, then pull
the wiper blade down (C) toward
the windshield to remove it from
the arm.
3. To install the new wiper blade,
insert the wiper blade into the
wiper arm hook (B).
4. While holding the wiper arm, push the wiper blade up and away from
the windshield.
5. Close the lock cover.
Replace wiper blades at least once per year for optimum performance.
Poor wiper quality can be improved by cleaning the wiper blades and the
windshield. Refer to Cleaning the windows and wiper blades in the
Vehicle Care chapter.
To prolong the life of the wiper blades, it is highly recommended to
scrape off the ice on the windshield before turning on the wipers. The
layer of ice has many sharp edges and can damage the micro edge of the
wiper rubber element.
