STEP 1: ATTACH THE FRONT ALUMINIUM ROPE TRACK. The aluminium Rope Track should be placed at the front of the tub, centred on top as shown below On the the aluminium rope track there is a double sided weather tape, peel off the film and attach the Rope Track to the tub. Care should be taken to position the track centrally and with the flange vertical and the back of the c section of the Rope Track pressed down onto the tub as shown in the diagram above. Using a 4mm drill bit, drill 6 holes through the Rope Track flange and into tray: one at 30mm from either edge, with the others evenly spaced between the two outer positions (approx. 260mm between centres) then rivet the aluminium Rope Track into position. STEP 2: INSTALLING THE SIDE AND REAR RAILS. The underside of the rails has black weather shield tape. This is to help provide protection from any friction damage to your Ute caused by movement. Place the side rails on top of the tub sides. Ensure the flat part is internal and the hook side is facing out. It is important that the flange is positioned parallel to the tub flange to ensure a good fit. This can be achieved by pressing the flange onto the inside of the tub and then sliding the aluminium down until it touches the top flat of the tub ensuring the black weather shield is lightly compressed. When drilling hold firmly in position. 2 ...

To install the side rails, follow the drill and rivet sequence in the picture above. Drill the holes 20mm up from the bottom of the aluminium flange, as shown in the first diagram above, riveting after drilling each hole to maintain the position of the rail. When pushing down to drill the front hole the back of the rail may stick up in the air due to the slight curve on the top edge of the tub and the foam compressing, this will come down when you push down to drill the rear rivet hole. When mounting the bar brackets locate each bar bracket at the positions shown in the picture above with the rivets 20mm up from the lower edge of the rail as shown in the first diagram. Drill and rivet one end and then level the bracket before drilling the second hole. To install the rear rail remove the tailgate liner before installing the rail. The rear rail requires 6 rivets in total, 50mm from each end and evenly spaced in between (approx. 260mm). 3 ...

1 X BAR SOCK ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE FOR UNIVERSAL SUPPORT BAR 1. Loosen the grub screws to insert solid bar pieces into either end of hollow tube. Adjust the bar so it fits between the bar bracket holders with the grub screws facing down (this is to ensure the grub screws do not rub against the tonneau cover). Finger tighten the grub screws then using a 3mm Allen Key tighten the grub screws a further ¼ turn only (DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN AS THIS WILL STRIP THE GRUB SCREW THREAD). 2. Place the bar sock over the support bar as this will stop the bar wearing against your tonneau cover. WARNING: FAILTURE TO FIT THE BAR SOCK OVER THE BAR WILL CAUSE UNNECESSARY WEAR OF YOUR TONNEAU COVER AND VOID THE WARRANTY. 3. Fit bar into bar brackets. STEP 4: FITTING THE TONNEAU. Slide the front of the tonneau cover through the aluminium Rope Track section. Neatly spread the tonneau cover over the support bar, ensuring it is centred and fully covers the tub. Use the finger loops to pull the cover’s plastic strip over the edge of the tailgate tonneau rail first. Using your hands, push down to smooth the rear strip into place along the edge of the rail. Once the rear is attached repeat along the sides. NOTE: Do not clip the sides on first as this may stop the back clipping on. When fitting for the first time the side position is set by putting the back on first. When carrying loads that are higher than the side of the vehicle tray, use the bungee and hook on the underside of the tonneau to secure the tonneau to the rails. CARING FOR YOUR TONNEAU. Apply bee’s wax or Dry‐Lube to the stitching a few times a year, as this will maintain the Tonneau’s waterproofing ability and prevent the stitching from degrading. Use a mild detergent and soft scrubbing bush to clean the tonneau cover. NEVER DRIVE WITHOUT TONNEAU SUPPORT BARS IN PLACE AS FLAPPING WILL CAUSE A UNDUE STRESS ON THE TONNEAU MATERIAL. . WARNING: TONNEAU IS NOT DESIGNED TO BE USED AS A LOAD RESTRAINT Thank you for purchasing an Australian made tonneau from Coverworld 4 ...
