Important
•Check mounting points after the first 5000 km and every 3-6 months.
•If this truck guard is equipped with Legacy Herd Slam Latch, periodic adjustment is required.
Refer to Legacy Slam Latch Installation adjustment instructions to properly adjust your Slam Latch.
•The drop-forged eyebolts are an integral part of the strength of Herd Truck Guards. When tightened firmly,
they will minimize vibration and provide superior impact resistance.
•To help maintain the factory finish, avoid acid wash.
