Fig 11.
8. Mount black plastic box on under side of brackets
on bed rest frame with hardware from packet "C". Slide
washer onto each bolt, then slide (4) bolts thru holes from
underside of brackets. Slide washer onto each bolt. Thread
nut onto each bolt and tighten using (2) 10mm wrenches or
socket set. (Fig 12).
9. Set rectangular frame/bed rest assembly onto trailer bed
with welded pivot brackets facing toward bed (tail light will
be facing toward tailgate) in line with axle bearngs on struts
(Fig 13).
10. Use hardware from packet "D" to attach rectangular
frame/bed rest assembly to struts. Slide washer onto bolt
then slide bolt thru outside pivot bracket. Continue to
slide bolt thru pivot bushing on strut then thru inner pivot
bracket. Slide washer onto bolt. Thread Locknut onto bolt
hand tight only. Repeat inserting second bolt on other strut.
Tighten both locknuts using (2) 18mm wrenches or socket
set so the locknuts are snug against the inner pivot brackets
but still allow the retangular frame/bed rest assembly to
easily pivot when lifted (Fig 14).
11. Mount Crossbar to both struts using hardware from
packet "E". Actuator brackets on crossbar must be facing
toward front of bed. Slide 1 washer on each bolt then slide
the 4 bolts thru the holes in the crossbar mounting brackets
and struts (2 bolts on each side). Slide a washer onto each
bolt. Thread nut onto each bolt hand tight only (Fig 15).
12. Tighten the bolts on both ends of each strut first using
(2) 13mm wrenches or socket set (Fig 16A & B). Next,
tighten the bolts along the length of each strut using (2)
13mm wrenches or socket set (Fig 17). Then tighten bolts
securing crossbar to struts using (2) 16mm wrenches or
socket set (Fig 18).
13. Mount the motor end of the Electrical Actuator to the
brackets welded to the rectangular frame toward the front
of the trailer using hardware from packet "F". Actuator
motor must be toward the underside of the bed. Slide
washer onto bolt then slide bolt into 1st bracket welded to
rectangular frame. Slide spacer onto bolt on inside of first
bracket then slide bolt thru actuator bracket. Slide second
spacer onto bolt then slide bolt thru second bracket. Slide
washer onto bolt. Thread locknut onto bolt and tighten nut
using (2) 18mm wrenches or socket set so that is it is snug
against second bracket but allows the actuator to pivot
smoothly when lifted (Fig 19A & B).
