PROTECTING TRUCK TAILGATES<br />
APPLICATION<br />
INSTALLATION<br />
RECOMMENDED<br />
PRODUCTS<br />
Roll-up truck tailgates can be protected with magnetic contacts that have<br />
sufficient durability, gap and vibration resistance.<br />
Select location for switch on wood or aluminum on the truck side just forward<br />
of the track. It is best to mount near the top, at a point where the track<br />
starts bending.<br />
Install by placing spacers behind switch to build out slightly beyond track.<br />
Mount magnet on tailgate door using bracket. Position magnet and switch as close<br />
as possible with door closed. Mount end of magnet about 1/2" (1.27 cm) past end<br />
of switch. Make sure Sentrol labels read in same direction.<br />
Test. Wire in leads and dress wires into place.<br />
Do not hook directly into high-current circuit, such as vehicle horn. Use relay if<br />
switching more than 1/4 amp.<br />
