This  tonneau  cover  is  designed  to  carry  rainwater 
from  the  cover  into  the  canister  and  then  out 
through  the  drains.  Most  truck  models  have 
standard  OE  drain  holes  or  plastic/rubber  access 
ports  in  the  front  of  the  truck  bed.  Check  to  make 
sure  your  truck  has  the  OE  drain  holes  so  that 
drilling into the sheet metal is not required. If drilling 
is necessary, be sure to check the underside of the 
truck bed for the best location. The holes should be 
located  near  the  side  and  as  far  forward  as 
possible.  Use  a  drill  bit  suitable  for  sheet  metal 
(such  as  a  taper  drill  or  step  drill).  Drill  drain  tube 
clearance holes at 3/4” (19mm). This will need to be 
done before installing the cover.  

(WARNING:    Use 

caution not to drill into wires, hoses or the cab!)

 

A complete unit will consist of one canister box (marked box 1 of 2) and one rail box (marked box 
2 of 2). Remove the Top Cover, Canister, Clamp pack, Hardware pack, Foam, Clamp Extensions 
and  Drain  Tubes from the  Canister  box.  Remove  the  rails from the  rail  box  (see  caution  below). 
Perform a quick inventory of the packaging contents to ensure all parts are there.  Using the 3/8” 
wrench or socket, remove the 2 bolts holding the plywood packaging supports on the ends of the 
canister.  Discard plywood packaging supports and bolts.
