Once  the  clamps  are  lightly  tightened, 
measure the Between-the-Rail dimension at 
the  front  and  rear  of  the  truck  (FIG.  5E). 
Another way to ensure proper fit is to check 
the side to side play of the handle assembly 
at the canister and at the tailgate end of the 
rails.  There  should  be,  at  the  minimum, 
enough  play  to  allow  the  cover  to  move 
freely with no drag and at a maximum 3mm 
per side. If you push the cover you one side 
you should not be able to fit the Between-the
-Rail  gauge  between  the  Rail  metal  and 
Handle Stop on the opposite side. More than 
3mm  per  side  may  result  in  the  cover 
opening unintentionally and in severe cases 
it  may  fall  between  the  rail  tracks  and 
damage  the  cover. 

There  are  “Stick  on 

Shims” in the hardware pack that can be 
added to the brackets if too loose. 

 

Part  number  is  on  the 
serial  number  label  in 
the upper left corner of 
the  canister  (looking 
from tailgate).
