General maintenance calendar

Conditions of use

• The Mountain Top Roll cover is made of aluminum, plastics, and rubber.

• To ensure a smooth and trouble-free operation, it’s advised to follow this manual.

• The Mountain Top Roll cover has been designed for normal driving conditions on roads; the design is lightweight and not suitable for extreme usage.

• Temperature range: -30 to +80 degrees Celsius.

• The purpose of The Mountain Top Roll cover is to cover the bed from rain and dirt:

• Designed to withstand rainwater, some water ingress may occur. In the tailgate area, there will be water ingress.

• The Mountain Top Roll is made of aluminum profiles that heat up and cool down relatively quickly according to weather conditions. This can cause condensation on the underside of the lamellas and the panels.

• The Roll cover is not designed for loading although it can support normal snow loads. No part of it can support any load from cargo or persons and the product might be
  damaged if somebody stands on it. (Fig. 1)

• The Mountain Top Roll is NOT a 100% waterproof product, but off ers good protection against the elements. It is weather resistant, meaning that some water leakage must be expected.

• The pull strap has been designed only for opening and closing the Roll cover. The carabineer and ring will be damaged in case of excessive load.

• Goods in the bed must be secured during transportation to prevent damage on the structural parts of Roll cover (especially the canister). (Fig. 2)

• If the Roll cover is closed and has water, snow, ice or dirt on the cover, it might enter into the bed as the cover retracts. To avoid this, clean off the top surface of the cover prior to opening. (Fig. 3)

• When opening the cover, the opening should be careful and controlled using the pull strap to prevent the cover from hitting the front with full speed, which it has NOT  been designed for. (Fig. 4)

Warnings

• Do not drive with persons under the Roll cover.
• Do not allow persons or animals to stay in the bed when the cover is closed.
• Temperatures can be very high under the cover when closed. (Fig. 5)
• The pull strap should not be used to tie down cargo.
• Do not disassemble the main shaft from the canister without relieving the spring tension completely (See “Spring adjustment”). (Fig. 6) Remove fi ngers from lamellas when opening and closing. (Fig. 7)
• We do not recommend washing the Roll cover in a brushless carwash, as the coating may be damaged due to use of chemicals. (Fig. 8)
• Wash the Roll cover regularly using normal car shampoo and a soft, lint-free cloth or brush.
• If washed in any carwash, or if any chemicals are used on the roll cover, please ensure a max PH value of 8 is used, to avoid damage to the coating.

Functions

• To open The Mountain Top Roll cover:
• Make sure the Roll cover is unlocked (Fig. 9+10)
• Pull back on the handle, and press down on the lock cylinder. The lock is now disengaged and can be moved. (Fig. 11)
• Use the pull strap to gently open the Roll cover to any position, as long as the lock is not engaged. (Fig. 12)
• Moving the cover forward to an open position requires the use of the locking function,
• although the cover can be moved rearwards to the closing position without operating the locking function.
• Engage the lock again by either going to the fully open position or by using the pull strap to engage the lock. (Fig. 17)

Release locking system

• The Mountain Top Roll cover features a locking system with multiple locking points along the profi les. The Roll cover will stop at the locking points only when the lock is engaged.
• When the locking system is engaged, the Roll cover will lock in these 4 positions:
• Fully open. (Fig. 13)
• 2/3 open. (Fig. 14)
• 1/3 open. (Fig. 15)
• Fully closed. (Fig. 16)
• To fully open the Roll cover, the locking system must be disengaged.
• To toggle the locking system, pull the strap either left (engage) or right (disengage). (Fig. 17+18)
• When the Roll cover is fully opened, a lock activator is automatically triggered, engaging the locking system. (Fig.19)
• For the Roll cover to close correctly, the locking system must be engaged before the cover is closed. (Fig. 20)

 Spring adjustment

• Before adjusting the spring, make sure the Roll cover is cleaned and lubricated properly.
• The main spring is positioned in the main shaft in the canister. The spring tension has been adjusted by delivery and is ready to use. Spring tension can easily be adjusted. On the right side of the canister end piece, there is a pinion. (Fig. 21) To adjust the tension:
• Press the shaft inward to release the locking mechanism. Use a small wrench with  an 8 mm key: (Fig. 22)
•  While maintaining pressure on the shaft, adjust clockwise to increase spring tension and make the Roll cover open faster (Fig. 23)
• While maintaining pressure on the shaft, adjust anticlockwise to reduce spring tension and make the Roll cover open slowly (Fig. 23)
• WARNING – The main spring may cause injury if the canister is opened without relieving the spring tension.

6.1 General cleaning

• The Roll cover should be cleaned on a regular basis using water with normal car shampoo (PH < 8). (Fig. 24)
• Drains should be cleaned often to ensure proper function of water management (Fig. 25)
• When cleaning, use a soft, lint-free cloth or brush. Rinse soap foam off thoroughly with fresh water, and dry with a clean cloth. It is vital that any other chemicals such as petrol, strong alkaline or acid are NOT used on the surface.
• Do not use abrasive cleaning tools such as steel wool, hard brushes, or abrasive scourers, as these may damage the coating surface and change the color or gloss levels of the fi nish.

6.2 Cleaning the canister
The canister should be cleaned at least once a year removing dirt and debris. The lid over the canister needs to be removed for this operation and should be carefully reassembled. Take care not to lose the plastic screw caps

• Remove the 6 screws on the lid. Take care not to lose them. (Fig. 26)
• Remove the lid. (Fig. 27)
• Remove dirt and debris from the canister. (Fig. 28)
• Reassemble the lid, using a drop of e.g. Locktite 243 and a torque wrench at 1,8 Nm. (Fig. 29)

6.3 Lubrication

• The lock should be lubricated regularly using a suitable lock lubricant (e.g. Würth lock spray), or similar. (Fig. 30)
• Seals and side profi les should be cleaned and lubricated regularly using silicone (e.g. Würth Silicone Oil), or similar. (Fig. 31)

6.4 Re-tightening the bolts

• Over time, some of the bolts may loosen due to vibrations. To re-tighten the bolts correctly, fi rst locate the 4 angle brackets underneath the side rails (fi g. 32):
• Loosen bolts on the side rail brackets slightly. The brackets should be able to move freely (fi g. 33).
• Tighten the remaining bolts by fi rst positioning the brackets as shown, and tighten the top bolts using a torque wrench to 10 Nm (fi g. 34).
• Tighten lower bolts to 10 Nm (fi g. 35).
• To prevent the bolts from loosening again, remove the bolts and apply Locktite. Fasten the bolts again using the method above (fi g. 33-35).
