Notes and Maintenance
Before you begin installation, read all instructions thoroughly.
For black finishes, mild soap may be used to clean the product.
Refer to the table to the left when securing hardware during the
installation process to help prevent damage to the product or vehicle.
Caution: Failure to follow the guidelines below and on page 2 may result in damage
or loss of load. This includes, but not limited to, damage to tie downs, headache
rack and vehicle. It is the drivers responsibility to ensure the load is secure and to
periodically check to make sure the load remains secure.
Headache rack tie downs are designed to withstand
150 pounds of straight line tension force.
Any hooks placed into tie downs must be small enough
to fit completely into holes or slots and and should also rotate freely.
Tie downs should not be used to secure loads in the bed of pickup truck or any
other place that would cause the tie downs and headache rack to be side loaded.
Tie downs should only be used to secure loads on top of headache rack.

Step 1
Place the headache rack on a work table
with the slotted ends hanging off the
sides of the table.
Note: tie downs may be install if the
headache rack has already been
installed on the Vehicle.
Insert an M8 bolt into the top
rail slot of the headache rack.
Step 2
Align the M8 bolt with the mounting
hole in the tie down and insert into the
rail slot. The T-shaped portion of tie
down must be slid into the hole on the
headache rack at the same time the tie
down is placed on the M8 bolt.
Loosely thread the threaded knob
onto the M8 hex bolt and slide the tie
down into the desired location.
Tighten down the threaded knob
to secure the tie down in place.
Step 3
Repeat steps 1 and 2 for
the remaining tie down.
Congratulations on the installation of
your new ARIES headache rack tie
downs.
With the headache rack tie downs
installed, periodic inspections should
be performed to ensure all mounting
hardware remains tight.
