Operating Instructions

The BACKRACK Original Rack serves as a protective barrier for your truck's cab and rear window, preventing damage from shifting cargo during transport. Its open design facilitates easy loading and securing of various items.

Securing Cargo:

• Position items such as ladders or long pieces of lumber between the uprights of the rack.
• Utilize appropriate tie-downs or straps (not included) to secure the cargo firmly to the rack and truck bed.
• Ensure cargo is stable and will not shift during vehicle movement to maintain cab and window protection.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and functionality of your BACKRACK Original Rack.

Cleaning:

• Clean the powder-coated finish with mild soap and water.
• Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
• Rinse thoroughly and dry to prevent water spots.

Inspection:

• Periodically inspect all mounting hardware for tightness. Tighten any loose bolts or fasteners.
• Check the powder coat for any signs of scratches, chips, or corrosion. Touch up any damaged areas promptly to prevent further deterioration.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your BACKRACK Original Rack, consider the following common checks:

• Loose Fitment: Ensure all installation hardware is securely tightened according to the installation instructions. Over time, vibrations can cause fasteners to loosen.
• Unusual Noises: Verify that no components are loose or rubbing against the truck body. Re-check all mounting points.
• Damage to Finish: Minor scratches can be touched up with appropriate automotive paint designed for powder-coated surfaces to prevent rust. For significant damage, professional repair may be necessary.
