PREPARATION
IMPORTANT NOTES:
The illustrations used in this manual show a semi-trailer box, however, steps
and procedures also apply to farm trucks and grain carts.
The truck or trailer on which installation is being done must be parked on
a level surface. This prevents box from twisting, which can cause a poor
installation.
Box must be square and straight. Center must not be pulled together or
spread apart. Make adjustments prior to installation.
Inspect box for sharp edges or points that make contact with tarp and/or
cables. Remove or grind smooth.
It may be necessary to remove or reposition ladders or other devices that
may interfere with tarp. If any modifications to box are needed, consult box
manufacturer.
If you have an extension on top of your box, make sure it is secure by bolting
in place.
Most fasteners used in this installation are a 3/8” x 1” self threading bolt. A
5/16” hole must be drilled to obtain correct tap drill hole size. Attach these
bolts only to secure structures on box. In some cases it will be necessary
to use washer and nuts or other types of fasteners (NOT FURNISHED) to
ensure a solid anchor.
Before you begin, measure the outer length and width of your box. Also measure the length of the tarp and the width of the end caps to ensure you have
received the correct size. The tarp must measure between 8” and 16” shorter
than the box length. The end caps must be at least 1/2” narrower than box
width, usually 1/2” to 3” narrower. NOTE: Some systems may require end
cap variations which will result in short outer tarp lengths.

ELECTRIC MOTOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: For kits with Command Station or the COMMAND-10® Remote Control refer to those manuals for operating instructions.
STEP 1: CLOSING FROM OPEN POSITION.
Push switch to the CLOSED position and hold. Visually view tarp position and
release switch when tarp is fully closed. Fully closed is when tarp roll tube is
tight up under latch plate.
STEP 2: OPENING FROM CLOSED POSITION.
Push switch to the OPEN position and hold. Visually view tarp position and
release switch when tarp is fully open. Fully open is when tarp roll touches
tarp stops. TOO TIGHT in open position could cause damage to tarp stops,
tubes and tarp.
IMPORTANT: Electric tarp system is equipped with a modified reset
circuit breaker. Holding switch until circuit breaker trips is too
long. When this occurs, breaker will trip and reset if the breaker
is overloaded by the motor. To reduce unnecessary strain on
components, always release switch before breaker trips. If breaker trips
and does not reset, it may have detected a continuous short and will
not reset until the short is repaired.
IMPORTANT:
OPEN TARP when loading or unloading box. Unloading box with
tarp closed will create a vacuum which could cause damage to tarp
system.
CLOSE TARP when transporting or storing. A closed tarp will extend
the life of your tarp system.

INSPECTION MAINTENANCE
!
INSPECTION / MAINTENANCE
• Periodic preventive maintenance should be practiced. Inspect
tarp and hardware for abrasions or loosened bolts that may
need adjustment and/or repair and adjust tension when
needed. Tarp must be kept to a recommended tension setting
equally on both ends, or excessive tarp wear may occur.
• If installed correctly, tarp should always operate as well as
when first installed. If tarp does not pass this simple inspection,
make all appropriate repairs or adjustments immediately before
serious damage occurs.
• Always use genuine Agri-Cover, Inc. replacement parts if
repairs are needed.
• Bunji cord recoil memory will typically take longer if left open for a
long period of time or when operated in cold weather.
• Periodically remove handle and apply grease to splines.
• Routinely grease zerk fitting on crank handle U-joint.
• Check the tightness of mounting bolts and electrical
connections, remove any dirt or corrosion that may have
accumulated on the electrical connections.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the motor or gearbox.
Disassembly will void warranty.
