As Dustin advises, support the glass with a saw horse or boxes padded with an old blanket; and watch out for the spring loaded regulator arms
Here are two schematics. I see that some years have slightly different colors for the gate's switch wiring; usually pink/lt blue is replaced with purple/lt blue or vice-versa.
