are a couple of additional steps needed to make your Tonneau Cover compatible
with them. If you have an over-the-rail bed liner, you will need to notch your
bed liner so the brackets can go through the liner and clamp into the
lip of your truck bed. Accurate instructions for doing this are
included with every Tonneau Cover kit. It is a fairly easy process.

how is the tonneau cover protected from damage while shipping? |
| |
Undercover™ Tonneau Cover is specially package with extra duty corrugation.
All four sides are wrapped with banding tape in order to hold the inter-packaging in tact.
We would recommend that you inspect the outer carton for obvious
shipping damage. If you are uncertain that the product has arrived without
internal damage, you should refuse the order when it is delivered. If you feel
the outer carton is just slightly damaged, make note of this on the freight
bill. You should then confirm that the part shipped is the part you ordered.
Do not open the box until you have confirmed this. If you open
the box and then discover that it is not the right product you ordered, you
could be responsible for the freight cost back to the warehouse. Once you have
confirmed this is the right product, you should open the box as soon as possible
to confirm that there is no concealed damage. If there is, report it
to us immediately.
|
| |
Up |
| 21. |
How is the cover packaged inside the box, to protect it from damage? |
| |
As with the outer carton, very best Styrofoam blocks are used to
rest the cover on. Every corner is protected along with all sharp objects.
Also, a high grade of bubble wrap is used to keep the box from rubbing the cover. All
of your parts are wrapped together and located underneath the cover. The parts
are carefully taped into place.
|
| |
Up |
| 22. |
How hard is it to get the props (struts) off the side rails? |
| |
As you can see in the picture, there is a small C shaped ring. This ring is
released by using a small head screw driver to just slightly lift it away from
the prop. DO NOT COMPLETELY REMOVE IT. It is designed to just slide forward
about 1/4 inch. Then push the prop out away from the truck, remove the screw
driver and allow the ring to pop back into place. You do not have to remove the
top ring, there is a clamp on the side of the cover that will hold the prop in
place while you move the cover.
|
| |
Up |
| 23. |
Where is the Serial Number located? |
| |
If you are standing at the back of your truck, lift the cover up and on left
hand side you will see a silver plate with 5 digits. This is your serial number
and will be required anytime you have part or warranty issues.
|
| |
Up |
| 24. |
What are the lock covers for? |
| |
The lock covers are there to protect the locks from dirt and grime that could
build up. Also, during winter months, the caps protect the locks from snow and
ice. Lock covers are easily replaced. If you ever have damage issues you
should contact us for replacement parts.
|
| |
Up |
| 25. |
When installing the front brackets, how far forward should I go? |
| |
This is a very important point for proper installation of your UnderCover Tonneau Cover. As
you can see in the picture, you should only go forward enough for the tongue
part of the bracket to hang over the bed rail. NEVER place the
bracket up against the truck cab. This can cause serious damage and is not part of
our warranty. Once you place the stainless steel ring on the bracket it should
not be pinched against the truck cab. It is alright if it taps it, but not
pressed against it. Be sure and consult your installation guide carefully for
proper alignment.
|
| |
Up |
| 26. |
Which way should the props (struts) be facing once they are installed? |
| |
As shown in the picture, the cylinder end should be up and attached to the
cover. This allows for the fluids to work properly. Also, you will be able to
attach the prop(strut) to the clip whenever you want to remove your cover.
|
| |
Up |
| 27. |
Will using a Tonneau Cover improve my gas mileage? |
| |
YES, Tonneau Covers will definitely improve your gas mileage. Studies show the
average pickup truck owner drives 18,000 miles per year. At 15 mpg that
comes to 1,200 gallons of gas per year. At a minimum of 10% savings you

How can I improve the seal of my tonneau cover? |
| |
Although no tonneau cover is completely waterproof,
the TruXedo® Tonneau Cover will help to keep rain, snow, and dust
out of the bed of your truck. Since different types of bed liners and
bed rails may affect how the tonneau cover fits at the front of the bed, each
kit includes two small pieces of weather seal. This weather seal can then
be fitted into the front corners of the truck bed, further helping to
keep elements out of the bed.

Will the TruXedo® and TruXedoPlus® tonneau cover work with my other

| |
Yes! The unique inside mount design of the TruXedo®

caps and tool boxes.

How do I adjust the tension on my tonneau cover? |
| |
The TruXedo®
Tonneau Cover has automatic tension control. There are two spring loaded
steel plungers at the front of the bed that maintain constant tension
on the front header, allowing the tonneau cover to stay tight in any weather.
Initially, you need to set the tension. This should be done during the
warmest part of the day by closing the tonneau cover, releasing the Velcro™
fasteners from both sides near the cab, and checking compression of the
spring plungers against the front header. Roll cover open to make adjustments.
Repeat until satisfactory tension is achieved.
