Thoroughly clean installation areas.
Important: Instructions are for Utes with an UNDER-RAIL tubliner. If you have an OVER-RAIL tubliner you must trim the top off.
Hinge mounts:Align the hinge mounts along the front of the tray, ensuring the hinges are properly positioned from centre of tub 560 mm to centre of hinge mount either side along the inside of the front of the tub. Attach the hinges using selfdrilling screws (supplied) through holes pre-drilled into the hinges. Apply clear or black silicone to any gaps and between the hinges and the vehicle to prevent water entry.
Measure and mark the positions as indicated above from the centre of the bed for placement of the bottom hinges.WARNING: RECHECK DIMENSIONS TO ENSURE CORRECT MEASUREMENT
Using a 3.5MM drill bit, drill through the holes in the top and the base of the hinge plate into the tub. Remove hinge and clean any swarf, apply Cold Galvanizing compound to the holes drilled. Using the self-tapping screws fasten the hinge into the tub.
Gas Struts:Measure from the front rail inside of the tub, measure along the top edge of tray 760 mm (windscreen end) then down 20mm and mark the position of the screws for the gas strut bracket.Position the gas strut bracket accordingly, mark two mounting holes and centre. Refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2
Using a 2 mm diameter drill bit set to 5 mm drill stop. Drill two pilot holes. Attach small gas strut bracket using self drilling screws provided. Repeat process on other side of tray. Refer to Fig. 2 and Fig.3
Attach small shaft end of gas strut onto gas strut brackets, by clicking them in place. Refer to Fig.4 with regard to gas strut orientation.
Important:DO NOT over tighten screws. Recommended tightening torque is 1- 3 Nm
You may cut off the desired excess at the end of your installation
Clean header rail (where extrusion will sit) with alcohol wipes provided and wipe away the residue with a dry clean cloth. Place the extrusion tape seal along the top of the header rail with the sealing lip facing towards the tailgate. Start the extrusion at the edge of the side rail. IMPORTANT: Position extrusion as close to the header rail rear radius. Rub down firmly to ensure maximum adhesion.
Attach lid hinges to tub hinges by aligning and pushing the pin through. Click pin down into hinge locking tab
Important:Ensure tongues are fully inserted into the hinge slots with hinge pin securely in place.
Place lid on tub. From inside follow the assumbly of hardware provided
Adjust Lid so it is even on both sides and pull the lid back all the way so the front of the hinge bottoms out to the inside front lip of the lid.
With the Hard Tonneau Cover opened, attach the cylinder end of each gas strut onto the mounting brackets attached to the Hard Tonneau Cover by clicking into place
Fasten latch bracket in place with self-tapping screws.Repeat for the opposite side.
Use an Allen key to loosen the hex key screw on the catch and tension cable so it is tight but doesn’t move the catch at all, then re-tighten the hex key screw.
With the lid in closed position, lift the tailgate. The tailgate must close gently against the silverback lid’s seal.
If you find the tailgate is hard to close, put the tailgate down and adjust the U bolt up until the desired closing of tailgate is achieved.NOTE: the seal must touch and compress gently to achieve sealing.
HOW TO OPERATE YOUR SILVERBACK LID
Paint care instructions:Your new painted Hard Tonneau Cover has been covered with a plastic film to protect the paint from damage. It will require cleaning and possibly light polishing after the protective film has been removed. Use polish as per new paint on a new vehicle. Wash Hard Tonneau Cover using water and normal carwash detergent and polish with an automo- tive polish.
NOTE: Please ensure Lid is kept locked at all times when not being used, for both safety and longevity.
