Mounting Hardware
Always use the proper mounting hardware when installing Thermo King equipment. Choosing the wrong hardware can
result in equipment failure, vehicle damage, or serious injury. All mounting hardware must be the correct grade, size
and length for the application and tightened securely.

Tightening Mounting Hardware
• Care must be taken when tightening mounting hardware to verify the insulation, cargo box, or unit is not crushed or
damaged from over tightening. The use of large fender washers or backer plates (installer supplied) is
recommended.
• Hardware must be tightened so that it will not rotate freely by hand. Backer wrenches must be used on hardware
that goes through the cargo box.
