Torklift C2204, Важные инструкции по установке для владельцев-операторов

Страница: 15 / 15

When securing any heavy load (especially a camper) in your truck bed, your front tie down points
should pull the load forward as much as possible. Some camper anchor points may differ with dif-
ferent manufacturers, as well as the camper jack mounting locations. Your Torklift tie down inserts
have offset triangular brackets to increase the angle of pull. These are designed to be used in the
front facing forward, and the rear facing rearward but can be used in either front or rear. These
recommendations are to be considered and followed as a basic rule of thumb . Obviously there will
be some applications where this may not be possible. At a minimum, if opposite pull of both front
and rear tiedowns cannot be achieved for whatever reason, you should have at least a forward pull
at the front or rear location.
If your camper does not come with Rubber Bumpers on the front lower portion of the camper, install-
ing Rubber Bumpers (Torklift has Rubber Bumpers available Part
A7001) or using a block of wood such as a 2 x 4 in the bed, will prevent the camper from damaging
the front bulk head of the truck bed.
Minor movement (or settling) can occur in some incidental harsh driving conditions (on or off road).
A rubber bed mat is not a requirement to maintain the lifetime warranty on a Torklift system, but
a strong reccommendation simply as a safety precaution to protect the truck bed, the bottom of the
camper and to give the camper additional support.
TORKLIFT DOES NOT RECOMMEND: Installing your truck camper in your truck on top of a
drop in plastic bed liner!!! The drop in plastic bed liners can slide on top of the truck bed surface,
and the camper can slide on top of the slick surface of the bed liner. The liner can also act as a
spring causing a trampoline effect increasing vertical truck camper movement, independent of the
vehicle, possibly resulting in truck bed, and camper damage!

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FINISH MAINTENANCE
OF TORKLIFT PRODUCTS
POWDER COATED STEEL:
To keep your Torklift products looking good follow these guidlines. All steel powder coated Torklift
products are sandblasted for maximum adhesion and use a high quality industrial urethane based
powder coat. Due to the extreme, harsh, undercar environment that your Torklift products live in,
(consistantly sprayed with corrosive road chemicals such as salt, and road debris), Torklift does not
warranty the power coated finish.
To minimize corrosion from these factors on powder coated steel products, Torklift recommends regu-
larly cleaning and inspecting the powder coated surface and touching up any affected areas with an
enamel or urethane based aerosol paint product. If there are any areas of surface rust, there are also
aerosol spray rust converters available on the market that can be used as a preparation to touch-up
paint application. These finish maintenance products are available at any automotive parts supplier.
POLISHED STAINLESS STEEL :
Torklift utilizes quality grade 304 stainless steel in our stainless steel polished products. 304 stain-
less steel is well known for its anti-corrosive properties. However, in some environments such as
coastal regions or when coming in contact with some road chemicals, corrosion may occur.
For a quick clean simply use WD40 and a cloth rag. We also recommend occasional polishing of
our polished stainless products to maintain their attractive finish. Use an approved stainless steel
chrome or aluminum mag wheel polish cleaning product which can be purchased from any auto-
motive parts supplier.
