REFINISHING PROCEDURES
All WEATHER GUARD® products
are finished with a polyester powder
coating, and it is important to follow
these procedures to get proper
adhesion. As Knaack Manufacturing
Co. cannot control the finishing of
the products, the warranty for
WEATHER GUARD® products on
paint is not applicable on refinished
products.
1. Sand the surface to be painted
with 180-200 grit sand paper to
rough up the surface. This should be
followed by wet sanding with a 400
grit wet or dry paper.
2. Wipe down the sanded surface
with ketone based thinner. This
removes the dust and softens the
powder coating for better paint
adhesion.
3. Wipe sanded area with a tack rag
to remove loose dust and particles
before painting.
NOTE: Do not use a lacquer over
the powdered coating.
13. Stand the box upright and turn the “J” bolts to the side so they won’t inter-
fere when placing the box on the bed of the truck. Set the box in place on the
truck bed.
NOTE 2: When placing the box back in position, if it was necessary to drill a
stake pocket, that "J" bolt will have to be held on an angle from the under-
side of the box and guided into the hole in the stake pocket.
14. Fasten the Leg feet to the floor.
15. Turn the “J” bolts so they are under the lip of the bed. Pull the “J” Bolt up until
it contacts the lip of the bed. Push the Plastic Retaining Washer down, using the
Fender Washer, so the “J” Bolt is held in position. Tighten the Nylon Lock Nut,
making sure the “J” Bolt hook remains under the lip of the truck bed.
Note: Periodically check the tightnessof "J" bolts to insure proper
attachment.
16. Snap the Cap Plug into the bottom hole. (plug may be pulled when cleaning
inside of box).

Blind
Fastener
Place a drop of oil on the black
oxide bolt before assembling
as shown on right. Place the
Blind Fastener in the hole and
use a 1/2” or 7/16” wrench to
tighten black hex bolt until the
blind fastener is fully seated.
When setting black hex bolt, it
will start out hard. As the Blind
Fastener “bulbs” out it will get
easier, until it bottoms out or
sets. Make sure the Blind
Fastener and Installation Tool
do not turn during installation.
