Service Procedure

1. Make sure the collapsible storage organizer is in the "deployed" position and the lids are snapped closed.

Deployed Position: Side supports and floor are snapped in place.





2. Position the organizer at the rear of the bed next to the tailgate.

^ If needed, loosen the knobs and slide the assembly rearward.

NOTE:
When sliding the organizer, apply light force to the center, or evenly to both sides.

CAUTION:
The organizer should only be moved in the bed of the truck when it is in the deployed position with the lids snapped closed.





3. Lower the tailgate and remove both rail stops.

^ Use a 13/32" (10 mm) wrench.





4. Slide the organizer out of the tracks and place the assembly on the tailgate.

5. Remove all four slider assemblies from the organizer as follows:

CAUTION:
Be careful when removing the insert / slider assemblies to avoid damaging the metal tube or the plastic panel.

a. Carefully use a medium flat blade screwdriver between the end of the metal tube and the plastic insert.





b. Use the screwdriver to very carefully begin moving the plastic insert out of the metal tube as shown in Figure 4.





c. When the insert begins to move, hold the assembly as shown in Figure 5 and pull it out of the tube.

NOTE:
If the insert is difficult to remove:





A. Position the organizer assembly on end as shown.

B. Spray lubricant (WD-40(R) or equivalent) between the inset and the tube.

C. Spray lubricant all the way around the insert.

D. Wait about 30 seconds for the lubricant to penetrate down the inside of the tube and around the rubber o-ring.

E. Pull / remove the insert as shown in Figure 5.

F. Wipe off any residual or over spray lubricant.





6. Insert the new slider assemblies into the organizer.

^ Push the slider in until the plastic insert stops against the end of the metal tube.





7. Completely loosen the hand knob on all 4 slider assemblies.

^ This will allow maximum gap between the washer and slider base.

8. Slide the organizer back into the tracks.





9. Reinstall both rail stops.

^ Use a 13/32" (10 mm) wrench.

10. Make sure the organizer is in the "deployed" position and the lids are snapped closed.





11. Slide the organizer all the way forward until it stops against the front of the bed.





12. Turn all of the hand knobs until each slider is tight.





13. Turn the nut on each slider until it just touches the plastic insert.

^ Use a 3/4" (19 mm) wrench.

^ Be Careful - don't over tighten - turn each nut just enough to touch the plastic end piece.

CAUTION:
Make sure the organizer is all the way forward, in the deployed position and the lids snapped closed before turning the nuts. Tightening the nuts with the organizer in any other position may cause the sliders to jamb in the rails when moving / sliding the organizer.

14. Make sure the organizer sides freely.

^ Loosen the hand knobs and slide the organizer backward and forward.

NOTE:
When sliding the organizer, apply light force to the center, or evenly to both sides.

If the organizer does not slide freely when the hand knobs are loose:

a. Slide the organizer all the way forward until it stops against the front of the bed.





b. Turn each nut (loosen) until there are at least two (2) threads showing between the nut and the end of the plastic insert.





CAUTION:
Make sure the rail stops are installed before releasing the vehicle.
