In Step 6 the Cover was opened (retracted). This should have caused the Lock
Lever to enter the Lock Pocket and rotate the 7 o'clock (latched) position.
A.
To close the Cover, pull the Pull-Strap hand-over hand, allowing the excess to
fall into the bed until you can reach the Handle. Place your hands evenly spread
on the Handle and pull the Handle until it contacts the Tailgate Extrusion. As the
Handle contacts the Tailgate Extrusion the spring loaded Latches (which were
energized when the Cover was retracted) will automatically trip, simultaneously
latching the Cover to the tailgate and side Tracks.
B.
To open the Cover, pull back slightly on the Handle to relieve spring tension
from the Latch Mechanisms and turn the Lock Lever clockwise to the 10
o'clock position. The cover should retract on its own with only a slight push to
set it into motion. When the Cover is retracting it is best to hold the Pull-Strap
and allow it to slip through your ngers as the Cover travels. Applying pressure
to the Pull-Strap as it slips through your ngers will act as a braking action,
preventing the Handle from slamming into the Lid at high speed. The cover
must retract with only enough force to rotate and reset the Lock Lever and
Latching Mechanism.
