Notes and Maintenance

Before you begin installation, read all instructions thoroughly.

For black ﬁnishes, mild soap may be used to clean the product.

installation process to help prevent damage to the product or vehicle.

Caution: Failure to follow the guidelines below and on page 2 may result in damage

or loss of load. This includes, but not limited to, damage to tie downs, headache

to ﬁt completely into holes or slots and and should also rotate freely.
