For four-section displays, when looking from the front, the lower-

left display section is BL and the section to the right is BR; the 

second row of sections are TL on the left and TR on the right.

Lift the display top section off of 

the truck.

3� 

Slowly lower the display top 

section until it rests above the 

bottom section.

4� 

Continue lowering the display 

until it rests on the display 

bottom sections and the splice 

key is inside the display top 

section splice channel.

Starting at one end of 

the display, insert the 

top lip of the splice 

wrench into the top 

section mounting 

channel. Refer to
