B.  Grip the lip of the door seal and by pulling and rolling the seal, disengage it from the seal retainer. Work around the seal until the seal is detached. (See figure 401.)
4.  Install Flap Type Mechanical Seal
A.  Slip seal over door and move into its approximate location near the seal retainer on the fuselage. Ensure that top, bottom, and corners o f seal are properly positioned and lip of seal is pointing outboard. Equalize stretch through entire seal and temporarily attach the seal to the door frame with strips of masking tape. (See figure 401.)
