LOCK SYSTEM
The WEATHER GUARD® Lock is designed to provide maximum security, while providing ease of use and
years of reliable service. When in the locked mode, the button remains retracted in a tamper-resistant position.
When the button is pressed in the unlock mode, the latch is activated and the cover opens.
LOCK
Turn key counter-clockwise to locked position
as indicated on lock bezel. When the button
is now pressed, it will stay in the retracted or
tamper-resistant position until unlocked.
UNLOCK
Turn key clockwise to unlock position as
indicated on lock bezel. Button will pop out
and is now ready to release the latches when
pressed.
MOUNTING BRACKETS
Wide flange mounting bolts provide secure mounting without crimping bed rails and allow full
unobstructed use of side pockets.
LATCH SYSTEM
The WEATHER GUARD Latch System utilizes an automotive-grade latch in conjunction with a high strength latch striker to
ensure maximum security. The WEATHER GUARD Latch System is designed to open with a single touch of the button, and close
securely. Expect years of reliable service from the WEATHER GUARD Latch System with only minimal maintenance: Bi-annually
lubricate latch pivot points with white grease. If latch striker is accidentally knocked out of alignment, simply use a mallet to realign.
12V ELECTRICAL ACCESS
WEATHER GUARD Truck Boxes are equipped with a 12 Volt Electrical Access Grommet
for easy electrical accessory fit-ups. To use, simply cut along one or more perforations in
the rubber grommet and run wire through.
