1. INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Note: To prevent corrosion apply an anti-corrosive primer to all holes drilled
1. Using two pieces of dowel, join the 3 aluminium rope tracks together. Place the other 2 pieces
of dowel in the ends of the now joined rope track.
2. Rest the aluminum rope track on the side rails as Shown in Diagram A, and push forward to the
vertical face of the tub.
3. Using a 4.5 mm drill bit, drill 6 holes 50mm from the end of each of the aluminium rope tracks
into the front of tub.
4. Once all the holes have been drilled, remove the dowelling pieces. Squeeze silicon along the
back of the rope tracks and pop rivet into place.
5. To fit bar brackets measure 748mm back from the inside front edge at the top of the tub and
place them as shown in diagram A. (5mm down from top edge of tub). Drill and rivet using
two large rivets for each Bar Bracket. Install support bar according to supplied instructions.
6. To fit round body hooks measure 95mm down from the top edge and line up each hook
individually to each bunji loop starting with the two either side of the tailgate handle and
working your way around to the front, drill and rivet buttons alternating from side to side.

2. CARING FOR YOUR TONNEAU
Apply bee's wax or Dri-lube to stitching a few times a year, as this will maintain the tonneau's
waterproofing ability and prevent the stitching from degrading. Use a mild detergent and soft
scrubbing brush to clean tonneau.
Never drive without tonneau support bars in place as flapping can cause a delaminating effect on the
material.
"Tonneau is not designed to be used as a load restraint"

3. MULTI-FIT SUPPORT BAR
The Aussie Tonneau Multi - Fit Support Bar is designed to fit almost all Utes on the Market, from
Suburu Brumbys to Cab Chassis aluminium trays.
3.1 BASIC TOOLS REQUIRED
- Drill, 4mm drill bit
3.2 MULTI SUPPORT BAR CONTENTS
- 1 x hollow bar centrepiece - 2 x grub screws
- 2 x solid bar end piece
3.3 FITTING MULTI-FIT SUPPORT BAR
1. Insert solid bar pieces into either end of hollow tube. Adjust bar so it fits between bar
bracket holders with the holes facing to the ground (so the grub screws don’t rub against
the tonneau), as shown above and then with a white pencil make a mark through the small
holes of the hollow bar onto the solid ends. This is where you will drill a hole to the depth
of about 1-2mm (do not go any further)
2. Join the pieces back together and screw grub screws through the hollow bar into the holes
that you drilled. Make sure you do not over tighten the grub screws. Refit the bar. You may
kink the bar in the middle to give it some extra height to assist with water runoff.
