Positioning
and fitting
instructions
Important fixing details
BEFORE drilling holes
Please make sure that the end position
of the hasp is:
- tight enough to prevent movement
of the door handle whilst ensuring
that the movement of the handle
and the door(s) are not impaired in
any way.
Position and fix the Unisto Manta
vertical.
1) Feed the lose end of the security hasp
through the door latch and insert into the
open cavity of the Unisto Manta.
2) Position the Unisto Manta and make sure
the door latch cannot be opened.
3) Mark the requested position on the door.
Use rear gasket as drilling template.
Ensure the word “FRONT” faces away from
the vehicle door. Carefully mark the two drill
holes on top and bottom.

Whiting Type Catches
Note for handles (Whiting 77 Type):
The Unisto Manta must be mounted in
a suitable position, where it does not
hinder the travel of the handle.

18 Special
applications
Certain applications (e.g. curtain side
trailers) may require a special length
hasp. The hasp has to be fed through
each buckle in the side curtain, then
the hasp ends can be introduced into
the cavities of the Unisto Manta as de-
scribed before.
Alternatively, the hasp loop can be used
in conjunction with TIR cables. The TIR
cable terminals must first be flattened
slightly with a hammer or pliers.
The free end of the hasp is then thread-
ed through the 7 mm openings of the
TIR cable and then introduced into the
cavity of the Unisto Manta as described
in the general fitting instructions.

Added security
Padlock (6 mm shank)
Optional for added security.

the locking handle (see diagrams in installa-
tion instructions).
