Installation Manual

BEDCAPS/ TAILGATE COVERS
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLATION.
BECAUSE OF THE TYPE OF ATTACHMENT METHOD USED ON THE
BEDCAP IT IS IMPORTANT TO READ INSTRUCTIONS FULLY BEFORE
FITTING. IT IS ALSO EASIER TO INSTALL WITH THE HELP OF A FRIEND.
THE DOUBLE SIDED TAPE ADHERES AND CURES BEST AT
TEMPERATURES ABOVE 65 DEGREES (F). IF THE BEDCAP IS BEING
FITTED BELOW 65 DEGREES IT IS ADVISABLE TO "WARM" THE CONTACT
AREA OF THE VEHICLE (A HOT AIR GUN OR HAIR DRYER MAY BE USED).
1- BEFORE REMOVING RED BACKING FROM TAPE, TRIAL FIT THE
BEDCAP. TAKE NOTE OF PROPER FIT AND CENTER THE STAKE
POCKET HOLES (IF APPLICABLE).
2- REMOVE BEDCAP AND WITH THE ALCOHOL PREP-PAD PROVIDED
THOROUGHLY CLEAN THE CONTACT AREA WHERE TAPE WILL
ADHERE (CLEAN YOUR VEHICLE BEFOREHAND, TO MAKE SURE IT IS
FREE OF DIRT, GREASE, OR WAX).
3- REMOVE RED BACKING FROM TAPE AND, STARTING AT THE REAR
OF THE VEHICLE, SLOWLY PLACE BEDCAP IN POSITION.
4- APPLY PRESSURE TO TOP OF BEDCAP TO INSURE THAT ALL TAPE
IS PROPERLY SEATED.
THE ADHESIVE REQUIRES 48 HOURS TO FULLY CURE. AVOID GETTING
VEHICLE WET UNTIL 48 HOURS AFTER INSTALLATION.
Installation Tip: If you are using the Wade Bedcap with a tonneau cover, camper
shell or tie-downs, it is important to allow for the expansion and contraction of
the Bedcap in various temperatures. It is advisable to install the various items so
they are snug against the Bedcap WITHOUT over tightening. OR, if you feel it
isn’t tight enough, you can cut a gap in the Bedcap of at least a half an inch on
either side of the clamp. Failure to do so will result in the warping of the product
which will not be covered by the warranty.
