Latch System
The WEATHER GUARD® Latch System utilizes automotive grade latches in conjunction with high strength latch strikers to ensure maximum
security. The WEATHER GUARD® Latch System is designed to open with a single touch of the button, and close securely. Expect years of reliable
service from the WEATHER GUARD® Latch System with only minimal maintenance: Lubricate latch pivot points bi-annually with white grease. If
latch strikers are accidentally knocked out of alignment, simply use a mallet to re-align.
12V Electrical Access
WEATHER GUARD® Truck Boxes are equipped with a 12 volt electrical
access grommet for easy electrical accessory t-ups. To use, simply
cut along one or more perforations in the rubber grommet and run wire
through.

ALUMINUM TRUCK BED INSTALLATION:
Place box in back in original position. Install all bolts in leg mounting
feet and insert the two mounting clamps as shown in the gure to
the right. Snap cap plug into bottom hole.
Note:
• If you encounter interference with the mounting clamp
and a stake pocket in the truck bed, it may be necessary
to drill a 1/2” hole in the truck box and use the “J” bolt
instead of mounting clamp.
• It is recommended that all fasteners be tightened hand
tight rst to ensure t, then go back and fasten securely
with wrench.
• Mounting clamp bolt may be difcult to turn due to “lock
nut” feature. Apply a small amount of grease to bolt
threads prior to installation to ease assembly.
