Surface Preparation and Installation
The following should be considered when mounting the Asset Tracker:
1. The box contains provisions for screw
mounting and adhesive mounting. It is
highly advised to install the Asset Tracker
using the screw mounting option as it is
more reliable and ensures securing the
device to the asset.
2. Choose a location that has a flat and even
surface. Avoid mounting the device on
glue or adhesive residues used to join/seal
the roofing panel material to the frame.
3. Choose a location that provides a
thick structural element on the trailer,
such as roof bows, top side rails, rear
frame, or top front nose rail. This
will provide adequate depth for the
provided fasteners.
4. Avoid using the self drilling screws with
thin gauge roof panel(s) as it doesn't
provide enough thread engagement for
the fasteners.
5. Fiberglass roof panels are a much less
desirable surface to attach the self drilling
screws. Avoid driving screws in them as
they tend to flake and will not hold the
screws over time.
6. Place the washer between the screw
head and the mounting flange. Using
the proper drive bit, slowly drive the screw
into the metal surface. Provided screws
are #6-20 x ¾" self tapping galvanized
steel screws.

7. If you can't use screw mounting and
you have to use double adhesive tape
mounting, please ensure the below
preparation steps.
8. At room temperature, the tape is 50%
cured after 20 minutes, 90% after 24
hours, 100% after 72 hours.
temperature for installation is 65°F
until 100% cured.
meet this criteria, please do not use
adhesive tape.
9. Choose a flat even surface that is
smooth and non-porous such as a bare
aluminum or steel surface. If the surface
is painted, make sure the paint is intact
and not deteriorated or flaking off.
10. Thoroughly clean the surface with a
mixture of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and
water (50% to 70% IPA). Wipe the
surface dry and make sure it's free of
oil, grease, dust, or debris. NOTE: if the
surface is not thoroughly clean or has
debris on it, the adhesive tape becomes
ineffective.
11. Apply the tape to the surface, remove
the backing tape, then press and hold
the Asset Tracker onto the tape, keep
applying pressure for 30 seconds.
