STEP 6: INSTALL & FASTEN THE CLAMPS
The electronics box has been pre-mounted to the inside of the canister.
Connect the battery wire harness into the 2-wire plug at the end of the canister (also
connect the optional manual switch harness, if installed at this time)
Attach the Red (positive) and Black (negative) wires to the battery or the truck manufacturers
suggested connection points at this time.

Press the Open button to open cover and press the Close button to shut the cover.
STEP 8: CONNECTING THE ELECTRONICS
HARDWARE USED:
Locate the sweep seals (rubber weather strips) on the rails.
Apply Pace Edwards’ UV Protectant (or 303 brand protectant)
to a rag and wipe the underside of the sweep seal and the top
of the wear strip.
Extend the cover to the tailgate. Use an Allen wrench if
needed to carefully draw out the sweep seal (seal should be
angled outwards toward the cover – not rolled in toward the
bed rail). (Fig. 6A)
Proper care and placement of the sweep seal will ensure
smooth operation of the cover. Alcohol, petroleum based or
silicon-based cleaners such as Armor-All
®
should be avoided
and ARE NOT recommended for our covers
