FEATURE OPERATION
LOCK SYSTEM
The WEATHER GUARD ® Lock is designed to provide maximum security, while providing ease of use and years of
reliable service. When in the locked mode, the button remains retracted in a tamper-resistant position. When the button is
pressed in the unlock mode, the latch is activated and the cover opens.
The WEATHER GUARD ® Latch System utilizes an automotive grade latch in conjunction with a high strength latch
striker 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: Bi-annually lubricate latch pivot points with white grease. If latch striker is accidentally knocked
out of alignment, simply use a mallet to realign.
MOUNTING BRACKETS

provide secure mounting
without crimping bed rails
and allow full unobstructed
use of side pockets.
12V ELECTRICAL ACCESS
