INSTALLING THE OPTIONAL TAILGATE LOCK

IS NON-LOCKING. IT IS AN OPTION YOU MUST SPECIFY YOU WANT WHEN ORDERING.
Attach the (optional) tailgate lock angle piece to the cover. using the 10 x ¾ BLACK SHEET METAL SCREW (x
2) (Figure 12A) (If your truck has a lockable tailgate this may not be needed.)
Transfer the location of the angle to the tailgate. (Figures 12B & 12C) We put masking tape down so as to not
mark directly on the tailgate.
Correctly position the tailgate lock block, match drill the holes into the tailgate and attach the tailgate block to
the tailgate. Using the #8 x 1¼ SCREW (x 4) (Figures 12D & 12E)

HELPFUL MAINTENANCE HINTS
To assure quiet, smooth operation, apply a small amount of grease to the guide strips where the metal end of
the panels and the guide strips meet. This initial application should be suffi cient for a year or more. Regrease the
guide strips if the cover begins squeaking during use.
Drain tubes may become clogged over time and should be removed and cleaned.
Periodically remove the top cover and clean out the canister.
To help keep the tonneau cover looking its best, we recommend washing it the same as caring for your truck
fi nish.
