Before the Cargo Bed Cover can be installed on the bed of the M35A2, 2 1/2 T Cargo Truck, the bed

surface should be cleared of any foreign matter or other debris that would interfere with the installation

process. A mounting kit must be installed to the truck bed that will allow the CBC to be secured to the

vehicle.

Unless it is already in an extended position, once the CBC has been separated from its shipping pallet

and prepared for installation as outlined in the UNPACKING section of WP 0010, it must be extended to

its operational position as outlined in WP 0005 entitled EXTENDING THE CARGO BED COVER TO AN

OPERATIONAL POSITION.

When the CBC is in its fully extended position, it must be lifted into

position using the four Lift Rings positioned along the fore and aft roof

lines of the CBC. The CBC should be lifted into position over the vehicle

bed in accordance with the section of WP 0005 entitled HOISTING THE
