C. Before lowering the Housing Lid, turn the
Lid Pin Knobs ¼ turn clockwise, which
will cause the pins to pop in if they are not
already. Lower the Housing Lid, being sure
that the Lid Pins snap into the receptors
located on the Tracks.
D. 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 (unlatched)
position.
E. Use 1/4-20 x 1/2" truss head screws and
rubber washers to secure the Cargo Shield
(Diagram 25).
Note: The rubber washers
go on the inside of the Cargo Shield.
F. Use 1/2" bit to drill holes for the drain tubes.
Note that this process is easier if 1/4" pilot
hole is drilled fi rst. The drain holes should
be positioned in the center of the outermost
bed plugs (Photo 26).
G. Always make sure the Pull-Strap is securely clipped to a fixed point in
the bed.
S TEP 7: T EST U NIT O PERATION
In Step 6 the Cover was opened (retracted). This should have caused the Lock
Lever to enter the Lock Pocket and rotate to the 7 o’clock (latched) position.
A. To close the Cover, pull the Pull-Strap hand-over hand, allowing the excess
strap 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Latches (which were energized when the Cover was retracted) will automatically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 fi ngers as the Cover travels.
Applying pressure to the Pull-Strap as it slips through your fi 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.
