Installing/Using Nylasar Bed Rails

NOTE: The hardware shown in FIGURE 4 on page 4 is already assembled to the bars and latch arms before shipment. It is not 
necessary to remove the hardware from the bolt or to remove the bolt from the bars or latch arms. Holding the bolt in place while 
removing the hex nuts will prevent the hardware from becoming disassembled. In case of disassembly, refer to FIGURE 4 on page 4 
for the correct placement of the hardware.
